The Format
The Offline Qualifier consists of 32 individuals. 24 of them have qualified through the 3 online qualifiers hosted in December. Whereas the other 8 are players that placed 6th-13th in last year’s edition of the BOV ePremier League.
They will be competing in a Swiss Format to qualify to the main event. The Swiss System format consists of 6 rounds played on 2 legs. If a tie ensues, the match will head to Extra Time, and eventually Penalties. Every single match will play out on the FIFA 21 Ultimate Team Friendly game mode. The participants themselves have to add each other as friends and inviting each other over to their own party, so they can battle it out.
