- 2nd place teams move to the Quarterfinals.
- 3rd place teams enter at Round 2.
- 4th and 5th place teams start at Round 1, with more games to play to reach the top.
The playoffs will take place from November 30 to December 1 in a single-elimination bracket. All matches, except for the Grand Final, will be played in a best-of-three (Bo3) format, while the Grand Final will be a best-of-five (Bo5), promising a fitting conclusion to this debut Dota 2 tournament from BLAST.
