Teams were split into two groups of 16 to play out a Swiss series. Teams needed three series wins to progress to the Major; three losses and a team was eliminated. If a team managed to win two matches before losing their third, they progressed to a decider bracket against the three teams with the same record from the other RMR. Elimination (0-2, 1-2) or qualifying (2-0, 2-1, 2-2) matches were best-of-three; all others were best-of-one.

After the teams have qualified for the Major, they will be seeded into each stage at the Major (Elimination Stage and Opening Stage) based on Valve’s standings within each region. The top seven squads post-seeding will proceed to the Elimination stage, while the remaining 10 will begin their Major run in the Opening Stage.
