The event will feature a single-elimination, best-of-five bracket with a special series win condition: should one team win both their initial map pick and their opponents subsequent map pick — or vice-versa — the team immediately wins the entire series. Otherwise, the series will be played out in full as a standard Bo5 match.
The seven invited teams are:
