European Qualifier
The European Qualifiers will be divided into two parts.
The first part is the Group Stage featuring 16 invited teams being divided into 4 groups of 4 teams each. Every group will undergo a BO3, double elimination format with the top two teams from each group qualifying onto the Playoffs.
The second part will witness the Playoffs featuring a BO3, single elimination format. The initial round will be played amongst the 8 teams that qualify through the Group Stage following which four more invited teams will join the winners of the initial round and continue playing till a winner is declared.
The European Qualifiers will be taking place from 6th-20th December 2018
North American Qualifier
The North American Qualifiers will be taking place in exactly the same manner in which the European Qualifier takes place.
The American Qualifier will be taking place from 7th-18th December 2018.
Chinese Qualifier
The Group Stage will be similar to what is followed by the other two qualifiers but the Playoffs will be a bit different, featuring a BO3, double elimination format with no teams being directly invited to the Playoffs.
The Chinese Qualifier will be taking place from 13th-23rd December 2018.
For now, Team Wild is the only team that has been invited for the Main Event, after winning the recently concluded Gamecon Brasilia 2018.
