This is the second and final qualifier we are hosting for the SEA region, which will determine which players will be invited to our Finals event later this year. This event is an open qualifier, and we welcome players from all leagues and skill levels to come and participate. We hope to see a range of players from Bronze to GrandMaster joining in!
IMPROVING FROM OUR FIRST QUALIFIER
If you participated in our first qualifier, you'd know that we stumbled into a few problems. We've made some changes to try avoid this on our second run. We've listed them further below, but to summarise:
Moved from single elimination to double elimination bracket
Best of 3 matches until the Grand Final
Removed check-in. Added standard walk-over
Hopefully this will ensure our schedule stays on track, and the players get a better experience throughout our event.
