Day 2: Division Placement Format
In the Division Placement phase, the 69 players who made it from the Play-in join the four pre-seated players. The pre-seated players are determined based on the results of the last CCT event (AI Cup). Players compete to get to the highest division possible.
- The Division Placement phase consists of two rounds, the first being a two-game match and the second a four-game match.
- Players who lose a match get bumped down to a lower division in Division Play (Division Placement III players get eliminated).
- Players who win all their Division Placement matches play in the equivalent division during Division Play.
- The time control is 10+2.
- A bidding armageddon game decides the winner if any match ends in a tie.
