The eight teams that will play the Playoffs will qualify via the 16-team Swiss stage.

These teams are:

These teams will play in a single-elimination bracket, with each series being a Bo3. The pairings for the Quarterfinals will be decided based on the Buchholz score.

The biggest missing name from the Playoffs will be the Team Falcons. The roster featuring the NiKo-m0NESY star duo was on the opposite side of an upset led by a Major debutant. Likewise, HEROIC were another squad people expected to make a deeper run but failed to meet the expectations.

Where to Watch

BLAST will broadcast the Playoffs starting June 19 across multiple platforms.
