We would like to draw your attention to the changes in the championship grid:

If there are not enough participants in it to form the full stage, but all these players have qualified (having received more than 0 points), then the championship will start, rounded up in bigger side.

For example, we have 11 players entered the championship. All conditions are met. Now they should get into the TOP-8. But there are not enough places for everyone. So the game will launch the TOP-16 grid, where the pairs will be formed in accordance with the current formation rules.
