The finals of this year’s Tekken World Tour, the inaugural one for Tekken 8, are finally upon us and they’ll be happening in Tokyo, Japan for the first time.
Players participating in the finals are TM|Arslan Ash, KDF|Ulsan, KDF|Mulgold, FATE|Atif, Navi|Kkokkoma, Navi|AK, Ashes|TheJon, Liquid|Shadow20z, THY|Chikurin, Falcons|JoKa, VARREL|Rangchu, Dragons|Raef, DRX|Chanel, KDF|CBM, ZETA|Double, Yamasa|Nobi, Falcons|Farzeen, DRX|LowHigh, FATE|Jodd, Leemishima, Talon|Book, KDF|Meo-IL, Falcons|TheSamBrother, FATE|Numan Ch, E-spopia|Shounen, NYCT|FearOfSilence, HG|DanielMado, DivineExorcist4, HDG|Noel, ME|Tejan, Kwstakys, Shaoling, Yondaime, Deadakari and Allidar, and of course the Last Chance Qualifier will be stacked through the roof as well.
This is a four-day event with a particular format. First of all, the players who qualified through the Global Leaderboard are divided into four Round Robin groups where the top two placers in each group advance to the winner’s side of the finals bracket.
Next, the players who qualified through the Regional Leaderboard will battle it out against each other in three Round Robin groups where the top two placers in each group advance to the loser’s side of the finals bracket.
After these 14 out of 16 slots have been decided, the Last Chance Qualifier opens up (and anyone eliminated in the Group Stage will now be eligible to enter this qualifier) and the top two placers in this take the last two spots in the loser’s side of the finals bracket, which will then commence on the final day in a double elimination format.
Streaming is being done at Tekken.
