Qualifying Tournament and Main Bracket

In Season 2, the qualifying matchups will be determined based on the final YMIR League Season 2 standings, which reflect the results of both the Promotion/Relegation Match and the Ultimate Showdown. To ensure more balanced matchmaking, participation this season will be limited to higher leagues and higher ranked servers within each region.

  • Server Transfer Notice: If you wish to participate in the tournament, please transfer to an eligible server during the server transfer period before the YMIR Cup begins. To ensure smooth tournament operations, server transfers will be restricted after the tournament starts.

  • Event for Non Participating Servers: For warriors on servers that are unfortunately unable to join the qualifiers, a variety of support events that can help with progression will also be prepared.

(Reference) Ranking Changes Based on the Results of the Ultimate Showdown and Promotion/Relegation Match

  • Ultimate Showdown: A win results in League 1, 1st place / loss results in League 1, 2nd place.

  • Promotion/Relegation Match: After the Promotion/Relegation Match, higher seeds will be assigned based on placement in a higher regular league and a higher rank in YMIR League Season 2.
