  • Second: Eight points
  • Third: Seven points 
  • Fourth: Six points
  • Fifth: Four points
  • Sixth: Three points
  • Seventh: Two points
  • Eighth: One point

Points were reset and the top eight from each day advanced forward for a shot to compete at Worlds. The top three players after three days qualified to compete at the Gizmos & Gadgets World Championship, along with the finalist that had the highest placement average over the course of all three days. And the remaining two finalists earned an invite to the TFT 6.5 Last Chance Qualifier.
