Season Format
The League at a Glance
Each season is split into 4 seriess, then the playoffs. Every series, teams in each division are placed into small groups and play everyone in their group.
Scoring
Points & Divisions
Winning a game earns your team points. Games in higher divisions are worth more, so a Division 1 win counts for more than a win lower down.
Your team's total season points decide its rank, playoff spot, and playoff seed. After each series, the best teams in a division move up one division and the lowest teams move down one.
| Division | Points per win |
|---|---|
| Division 1 | 6 |
| Division 2 | 4 |
| Division 3 | 2 |
Postseason
Playoffs
The top 8 teams make the playoffs. Teams are seeded by season points — the more points, the higher the seed. The bracket pairs the best seed against the worst (#1 vs #8, #2 vs #7, and so on).
Win and you move on; lose and you're out. After every round, the remaining teams are re-paired: best remaining rank vs worst. The last team standing wins the championship.
