THE GRAND FINAL: Quantic Incredible Miracle vs. ???????

When: Immediately after the Losers Final broadcast ends, we're casting the Grand Finals!



Format



Because Quantic Incredible Miracle has not lost a match, and this is a double-elimination format, they will only need to win one best of 9 All-Kill format series to be crowned our first place winners and earn the $6,000 first prize! The team coming from the Losers Final must instead win two full best of 9 All-Kill format series in order to win the tournament! Yes, it is possible that we could have an 18-game Grand Finals. The second place team will receive $3,000 for their efforts!
