Qualifier Mechanics

Official AcadArena Alliance member organizations get to enjoy a bonus qualifier date on October 10 but will only get to send a maximum of two teams. For Open Qualifiers, there will be no limit of teams each campus can send to represent. 

The Alliance qualifier will have 8 slots to the National Cup. For a second chance, the teams must register in the Open Qualifiers. If you’re part of any campus with an Alliance member org, you can contact them to participate.

There will be two waves of Open Qualifiers, with each of those waves offering 4 spots for a total of 8. 

There will be 8 more slots available to teams from Alliance schools in the Alliance Member Qualifiers to round out the 16 participants. If you fail to qualify in the first wave, you get a second chance to qualify through the second wave of the Open Qualifiers.

National Campus Open

The 16 teams that make it out of the qualifiers will be divided into four groups of four playing a single round robin format. Top two of each group advances into a single elimination B03 bracket with the finale played in a B05.

All the matches will be played online but the later legs may be played in a secure area with a marshal following social distancing rules depending on the national situation.

The PHP 300,000 prize pool from PVP and NCO will have cash, diamonds, and a variety of gear up for grabs.
