¹ Tiebreakers are done as follows: head to head, most wins, best result over the first better ranked team. They are all 1-1 between them and all have 2 wins. Burden finish 4th as they won 2-0 over Alliance while NiP did 1-1 and NaVi lost.

² Team Empire was not able to attend the finals due to visa issues. As the notification to the organization was late, Team Empire did not receive any prize. The next team in line to replace them was Vega Squadron but they could not make it in the short period of time and so Basically Unknown was invited to the playoffs.^[4]^[2]
