Marvel Rivals Ignite 2026 Mid-Season Finals format

Number three seeds from Americas and EMEA, and number two seeds from Pacific and China play each other in the qualifying stage. This is a double-elimination format without a grand final, in which one team from the upper bracket and one from the lower bracket advance to the playoffs.
The remaining teams enter the event in the playoffs stage. In the opening round, no teams from the same region are matched against each other. From then on, teams compete in a double-elimination BO3 format. The upper and lower bracket finals use the BO5 format, and the grand finals uses the BO7 format.
