- Season: regular league for 10 teams with more than 1 Round-Robin
- Group stage: eight teams from the regular season divided into 2 groups of 4 teams
- Playoffs: 4 teams from the group stage, the first places go to the winners' bracket, and the second places go to the losers. Matches are played in bo5 format, and the winner goes to MSI 2023.
