Format, Broadcast, and Schedule

The RLCS Fall Major format will mirror the RLCS Fall Split format, which means it's a 16-team Swiss Stage that feeds into an eight-team Single-Elimination Bracket. Win three times in the Swiss Stage and move on. Lose three times and you're out. Once a team makes the Single-Elimination Bracket, it's all or nothing every match.

The RLCS Fall Major will run for four total days (December 8-11). On December 8-9 there will be main streams on the Rocket League Twitch channel and Rocket League Esports YouTube channel and alternate streams on the Rocket League Esports Twitch channel and the Rocket League Esports YouTube channel.
