Get ready for the second World Championship qualifier!
Hello Kards players!
The first open qualifier for the 2021 KARDS World Championship has concluded and we offer our congratulations to the 58 players that qualified! Check out the sidebar of the in game World Championship hub for a complete list of qualified players.
Now it’s time for a second chance! Starting next Saturday the 25th of September the second open qualifier will start.
The qualification sessions in Qualifier 2 will be held on the following dates:
- 25th of September - 12-16 UTC
- 26th of September - 16-20 UTC
- 2nd of October - 12-16 UTC
- 3rd of October - 16-20 UTC
- 9th of October - 12-16 UTC
- 10th of October - 16-20 UTC
Each player needs to successfully complete a minimum 3 out of 6 sessions to post a legal qualifier score.
[h3]Competing in a qualifier session[/h3]
Each qualification session lasts for 4 hours. During those 4 hours, a special World Championship qualifier queue will be available for the bravest among you.
Participating players have to complete at least 9 games during those 4 hours to successfully complete the qualification session. Note that additional games after the required games are important for tiebreakers; we recommend playing a few extra games during the session to improve your chances in tiebreakers.
To enter a game, simply open the World Championship hub during a qualification session, press the battle button and select your deck for battle.
For each win during the first 9 matches, the player receives 5 points for the qualification ladder, and for each loss in these matches the player receives 1 point. A player’s final score is the combined total score from their best three sessions out of six sessions in the qualifier.
[h3]Tiebreaker system[/h3]
If players end up with the same score, a tiebreaker system is used to order them. Tiebreakers are based on several things, the most important being the strength of your opponents. So being matched against a very strong player might make for a difficult match, but at the very least your tiebreakers will improve regardless of the result.
