- 32 players are participating
- Players are divided into 8 groups of 4 players
- The groups will be played out in a ‘Dual Tournament’ format, a system that Starcraft 1 fans will be familiar with
- The 4 players of each group are split into two pairs and play each other.
- The winners of these matches will then face each other in the ‘Winner’s match’. The victor advances to the playoffs (Round of 16)
- The losers of the initial matches face each other in the ‘Loser’s match’. The loser will be out and will have to go through the Up&Down matches after the tournament, to determine if he can stay in Code S.
- The loser of the Winner’s match and the winner of the Loser’s match will face each other. The winner advances to the playoffs. The loser is out but stays in Code S.
- After the group stage is over, 16 players remain. Players who finished first in their group will be paired against players who finished second in a different group.
- The rest of Code S is played out in a regular single elimination tournament mode
- Ro16 is Best of 3. Ro8 and Semifinals are Best of 5. Finals are Best of 7.
