While no specific details about the participants at this tournament have been released, it's common for esports tournaments to have participants register online or in-person at the event venue. Contestants typically go through qualifying rounds before reaching the quarter-finals—these can take various forms, such as single-elimination matches or round-robin groups, aimed at weeding out less skilled players. The top competitors are often seeded in a bracket for the quarter-finals, with seeding generally based on their performance in the earlier rounds or their overall ranking in the tournament.
