(MWC / 4DM regulation as reference)

Qualifier

  1. There will be a total of 6 different qualifier maps with different skillset. Stages of the maps in qualifiers conform to the stages of their original song in touhou game. The skillset of each map is listed below:

    - Stage 1: Early-Mid Game Rice Technical
    - Stage 2: Early-Mid Game LN Coordination
    - Stage 3: Mid Game LN Density
    - Stage 4: Mid Game Rice Jumpstream
    - Stage 5: Mid-Late Game Rice Technical
    - Stage 6: Mid-Late Game Hybrid
    ..........
  2. Each team should present 2 players to play each map (switching players who play between maps is allowed), and will play each of the 6 qualifier maps up to two times in the lobby. Highest team total score between the 2 rounds will be recorded.
    For example, if a team scores 975000, 975000 on round 1 and then 985000, 970000 on round 2, the 2nd round will be the one recorded because the total team score was higher on the second round.)
  3. Teams can skip the break period between two qualifier round and any of the map in the 2nd round if all other teams in the lobby agreed.
  4. Teams will be ranked based on the “weighted rank sum” of their qualifier performances. The teams will then be sorted based on their "weighted rank sum" from lowest to highest, with lower weighted rank sum being ranked better than higher weighted rank sum. The weight of each stage in qualifiers is listed below:

    ...Stage 1...Stage 2...Stage 3...Stage 4...Stage 5...Stage 6
    ......1.00..........1.01..........1.20...........1.21..........1.40..........1.41

    There an example to explain how weighted rank sum calculated: A team’s score rank 3/2/6/8/4/1 on six stages, then their team’s weighted rank sum will be : 3*1 + 2*1.01 + 6*1.2 + 8*1.21 + 4*1.4 + 1*1.41 = 28.91
  5. Future conditions will be applied in order until ties no longer happen:
    - total scores, higher are better.
    - better scores, compared from stage 6 to stage 1, higher are better.
    - total tries count, lower are better
    - dice rolls, higher are better.
  6. The ranking of the Qualifier Stage will be used to determine the “seed” of each team. After Qualifier ends and every team has either gotten a seed or not qualified, the group stage will then begin, top 2 of 16 groups team will then join a standard Double Elimination bracket where the top seeded team will face the bottom seeded team, second highest will face second lowest, so on and so forth.

Group Stage

The amount of teams qualified and entering the Group Stage, and the format of Group Stage will be determined by teams play the qualifier:
  1. If 140+ teams play Qualifier, the format will be TBD.
  2. If 70 ~ 140 teams play the Qualifiers, The split double-elimination format will be used in the group stage, 64 teams split into 16 groups, meaning the top seed (#1 – #16) and high seed (#17 – #32) will start in the upper bracket, and the mid seed (#33 – #48) and low seed (#49 – #64) will start in the lower bracket
    - The Group Stage will last for 2 weeks.
  3. If 32 ~ 70 teams play the Qualifiers, the Group Stage will use the standard double-elimination format, 32 teams split into 8 groups, meaning all teams will start in the upper bracket.
    - In Winner SF, we will using group stage mappools. (BO7 Double Ban)
    - In winner finals, loser semi-finals and loser finals, we will using Round of 32 mappools. (BO9 Single Ban)
  4. If fewer than 32 teams play the Qualifier, the Group Stage will be cancelled, all teams pass the qualifier will advanced.
More info about “split double elimination” and “standard double elimination” is listed below:
