FORMAT
Seasonal tournaments are divided into four different phases: STAGE 1, MID-SEASON FINALS, STAGE 2, and the GRAND FINALS.
To be eligible, teams need to pass the Qualifiers before Stage 1's Group Stage. Top teams from the Marvel Rivals Invitational (MRI 
) and Championship Seasons (MRC 
) will receive direct invitations, while others can qualify through the in-game Open Qualifiers.
Teams have two chances to qualify, with each split offering about half of the slots. Qualified teams move to the Group Stage, where the top half advances to Regional Playoffs and the bottom half is eliminated.
After the Mid-Season Finals, top teams from the next Championship Season and Stage 2 Open Qualifiers can vie for spots in Ignite Stage 2. The top half from Stage 1 will automatically qualify for Stage 2, where teams will compete in the Group Stage and Playoffs leading up to the Grand Finals.
REGIONS
The tournament consists of five regions, each functioning independently according to the schedule. A participating Clash Faction is permitted to compete in only one region during the tournament:

CLASH FACTIONS
Participants can create Clash Factions to join in through the in-game Faction system, which players can locate in the Marvel Rivals Clash section under the Tournament tab.
Once a Faction has registered, it will be temporarily locked, meaning that no members can be added or removed during the competition. This lock stays in effect from the time of successful registration until the team either gets eliminated or reaches a final ranking.
Before the set deadline, Clash Factions that have registered can choose to cancel, change members, or resubmit their application. There is a limit, however, to how many times a team can repeal their registration voluntarily.[2]
