- Date and time: September 29 – October 2.
- Twelve teams are drawn into two groups with six teams in each group base on their seeding. Two teams from LEC cannot be placed in the same group.
- Single round robin, all matches are best-of-one.
- If teams have same win–loss record at the end of play-in groups, tie-breaker matches are played. A two-way tie is not broken by the results of the head-to-head game those teams played, however the team that won in the head-to-head gets side selection in the tiebreaker game.
- The top team automatically qualifies for the Main Event, while 2nd to 4th-place of each group advance to the play-in knockouts and 2nd-place receive a bye to match 2. The bottom two teams are eliminated.

Evil Geniuses, LOUD and DetonatioN FocusMe were in a three-way-tie for second place at the end of the group stage. Because placement in the subsequent tiebreaker matches was determined by the combined game time of each team's wins, LOUD was awarded a bye to the second tiebreaker match for having the shortest total game time.
