Photo via MPL Philippines Matches in MPL PH Season 18 use Map Selection Rules. The Regular Season features a double round-robin format. All matches are best-of-three (BO3), with one point awarded for a win and none for a loss. The top six teams advance to the Playoffs. Map selection for BO3 matches sees the home team pick Game 1, the away team pick a different map for Game 2, and Game 3 randomly selected from the two remaining maps. The Playoffs use a hybrid format. The third- to sixth-seeded teams play in a single-elimination Round 1, while the top two seeds receive a bye into the double-elimination Round 2. All matches are best-of-five (BO5) except the lower bracket final and grand final, which are best-of-seven (BO7). BO5 matches follow a similar map selection system as above, while BO7 matches use a rotating map pool where played maps are removed until all four have been used before the cycle resets.
