The third wave of this tournament will follow the same general format as the last one. However, there are two changes that will be implemented in this edition.
Firstly, starting from this leg onwards, the tournament days will be moved from Saturdays to Sundays. This is in line with the latest scheduling change issued by GameClub Philippines, which means that the qualifiers for this leg will be held on Sunday, June 7.
Secondly, Antipolo has been added to the Northern Conference and Butuan has been added to the Southern Conference. In other words, instead of having eight areas, there will be ten places from which teams can choose to play.
For this edition of the tournament, Pacific.Wara and Pacific.Macta will be seeded into the group stage of the Northern Conference, while HL.Decapitatorz and HASLEFTCebu (formerly known as Spammers) will be seeded into the next stage of the Southern Conference. This means that aspiring squads won’t need to worry about facing big-name teams in the qualifier stages!
