The top eight players from the two-day monthly qualifier will make it to the monthly finals. The eight-player monthly finals will feature a double-elimination bracket consisting of an upper and lower bracket. A player will be eliminated from the competition if they lose two matches.
Based on a player’s placement in the Trophy Race, qualifier, and monthly finals, they’ll earn qualification points for the 2021 World Finals. To further add to the stakes, there will be a $78,000 prize pool for each season that will be awarded to the top 32 players. The winner of the season will walk away with $20,000.
