ALGS Championship 2021 - EMEA

Group Stage Structure

Teams are distributed into four distinct groups using a Snake Draft method based on their accumulated ALGS points.

The Group Stage spans three days, with each group competing against every other group in a 6-game series:

• Day 1: Group A vs. Group B | Group C vs. Group D

• Day 2: Group A vs. Group C | Group B vs. Group D

• Day 3: Group A vs. Group D | Group B vs. Group C

Advancement Criteria:

• The top-scoring team from each of the four groups automatically qualifies for the Finals (4 teams total).

• The remaining 16 spots in the Finals are awarded to the highest-scoring teams across the overall, combined group stage leaderboard.

Scoring & Seeding

• Match Scoring: At the conclusion of each match, teams earn points based on their placement and total kills (refer to the official Point Distribution table for details).

• Finals Starting Points: The top ten (10) teams with the highest overall Group Stage Match Scores will receive head-start seeding points going into the Finals (refer to the Seeding Points table for details).

Finals: Match Point Format

The Finals do not have a fixed match limit. Instead, they utilize the Match Point system:

1. Threshold: A team must accumulate a minimum of 50 total points during the Finals to become "Match Point Eligible."

2. Winning Condition: Once a team is Match Point Eligible, they must win a subsequent match to be crowned the Champion.

3. Final Rankings: There is no cap on how many teams can become Match Point Eligible simultaneously. Once the champion secures the tournament-winning victory, positions 2nd through 20th are determined based on total overall points accumulated during the Finals.
