Who will be the kings of the north?

The North American DPC has been led by two powerhouses — TSM and Shopify Rebellion (formerly Evil Geniuses). While TSM won Tour 1, Shopify Rebellion surprised many with a strong performance at the Lima Major. Will another team finally manage to break their stranglehold?

All eight teams in the Regional League will periodically play each other in a round-robin best-of-three.

Tiebreakers will only be played if it affects qualification — for Majors and relegation. A two-way tie will trigger a best-of-three tiebreaker. If there are more than two teams tied, the tiebreaker will be a best-of-one instead.

The top two teams qualify for the Berlin Major.
