Group Stage -- Double-Defeat Elimination
Players are drawed into 2 groups. You will be staying in the winner's bracket until you have lost your first game. However, you still have the chance to get through the group by winning the remaining games. If you lose 2 games, then you are eliminated from the competition and we hope you will come back next semester.

There will be a qualifier from the winner's bracket and a quailifer from the loser's bracket for each group. The four qualified players plus the four seeds will then play the quarter final.

Game 1: 9/26, 9/29
Game 2: 9/29, 10/2, 10/3
Game 3: 10/3, 10/6, 10/9

Knock-out Stage -- Single-Defeat Elimination
Starting from the quarter final, all games will be single-defeat elimination, meaning out if you lose the round. However, all the three rounds will be "Best of Three" series. Whoever wins 2 games first in that serie will qualify for the next round, or winning the championship.

Quarter final: 10/10, 10/13, 10/16, 10/17, 10/20, 10/23
