Qualifying:
There will be a specific Insider Connected qualifying that begins January 6 at 4pm, ending on January 13 at midnight. Top 4 scores of pre qualified individuals that show up for the launch party are qualified for playoffs! Day of qualifying - every player plays ONE qualifying game. In order to play, a participant must place their name on the list and are asked to cue and be ready to play when it is their turn. Your score is recorded after playing by another participant or TD and verified by you. One qualifying attempt per participant, with the highest score for each player at the end of qualifying used to determine the final 1-4 Seeds, or your final position.
Playoff format:
Pre qualifiers and launch day qualifiers will play separate 4-player games head to head on TWD Remastered. Pre qualifiers that show up will be placed into the pre qualifier group if they earn both pre qualifier and on premise qualifying. Player position on all games for playoff rounds selected with priority given to higher score. Top 2 players from each group advance to finals round.
Final round:
The remaining 4 players will play one 4-player game on TWD Remastered as the final game for final position. Order is determined by scores on first playoff round, with priority given to higher score.
This will be held just before the regular monthly Heads-Up tournament, so stop on out and play in both events!
