Tournament Format

Online Qualifiers

There are two ways to qualify for the Finals:

Finish in the top 8 of any of the 5 Open Qualifiers.* (40 slots total)
Score the highest point total across all qualifiers. (88 slots total)

A total of 128 players will enter the batter’s box for the Fall Circuit Grand Finals.

*Players who already qualified through the Open Qualifiers (Top 8) won’t be able to join other qualifiers to ensure new players have a shot at earning a Grand Finals slot.

Day 1 features a swiss format. Play six rounds against players of similar skill whether you’re a rookie or an all-star. Find enough holes in the competition to reach Day 2, the elimination bracket. The top 128 will play best of 3 matches. Outplay opponents into the top 8 to qualify for the Finals. Turn up the heat in these best of 5 faceoffs for the Open Qualifier title.

Qualifiers start at 7 PM EST / 4 PM PST.

Step back into the box in multiple qualifiers for more prizes and points. The more points, the better your seeding in the finals. Moving up in the seeding is like moving up in the batting order, except your chances of standing on top of the competition increase instead of your chances of standing at the plate.
