HGC Playoffs

The second- through sixth-place teams from the regular season compete in a stepladder format - in each round, lower-seeded teams battle each other for the chance to play a higher-seeded team. The playoff winner joins the first-place team from the regular season at the Mid-Season Brawl.

Match format

Matches in the Playoffs are best-of-5.

Each team bans one battleground. Then, the "home" team chooses a battleground for the first game. In the following games of a match, the losing team of the previous game will have the choice for battleground selection or first hero pick in the draft.

Initial map bans

Team Liquid Team Dignitas
Braxis Holdout Warhead Junction

Game version

HGC Playoffs are played on the May 10 balance patch - before D.Va patch.
