A few more words about the Summit
The group stage is the first degree that all teams are passing by right now. It holds in the traditional format, called Round Robbin Mode. All the Summit has a BO2 format, so no teams will not be excluded from the pool, but the results of their play will determine the two of them, which will face each other in the playoff.
The final stage will hold at the Double Elimination grid. Four of the top teams will go to the upper bracket, while the worst two will go right to the bottom one. Playoffs, but not the Grand Final, will be played in a BO3 format.
The Grand final will be in a BO5 format, which means that the future winner will have to make three victories to become a champion.
