The group stage groups are confirmed.
Last year's finalists have chosen their group as below, so the remaining top 4 seeds get assigned in descending order of the groups remaining:
@tetiksh1agrawal - Group F
@neverplayslowanti - Group B

The remaining participants are assigned groups according to seeding, and you can find the groups and pairings here:
https://challonge.com/bawc2026
Matches can be played in any order. Each match has 20 games, all need to be played.

The deadline to play the matches is 25th August, 10 UTC.

Once the qualifier round matches get a result, the other players in the group stage can start playing their matches with the "Qualifier".

Please post all match timings and results in this forum.
