Group Stage - 05.02.2025 - 06.02.2025;

• The 2nd and 3rd place teams in each group advance to the lower bracket;
• The remaining teams are eliminated.

tiebreak rules:

• Two teams:

1. By head-to-head - if two equal teams played each other in the group stage, the winner of their match will take the higher place;
2. Bo1 Tiebreaker - if the teams played a series of two matches 1-1;
3. Fastest Time to Win - if no points tie is decided (e.g. both teams have not played each other), then the team with the fastest time to win in the group stage gets the higher place;
4. coin toss - if all other methods have failed, a draw will be held to determine the higher ranked team.

• Three teams:

1. Head-to-head - the results of the meetings between the three teams are considered, if one team beats both other teams, that team will be ranked higher;
2. Bo1 Round-Robin - A mini Round-Robin will be played between the three teams drawn;
3. Fastest Winning Time - If the Round-Robin is still a tie, the team with the fastest overall winning time in the mini-Round-Robin will be ranked higher;
4. Coin Toss - If the teams are still tied after taking into account the winning times, a coin will be used to determine place.

• Four teams or more;

1. The same principles apply as for a three-team tiebreak, but with a mini-Round-Robin among the tied teams (In the case of four or more teams, the tie will be eliminated in stages by eliminating teams based on head-to-head results, win times, or additional Bo1 tiebreak matches until the final place in the standings is determined).

Playoffs - 07.02.2025 - 10.02.2025;

• Double-elimination bracket;
