The top two players in each group advance to the next higher league. Players up to fifth stay playing in their league.

A new championship starts for each variant twice a year. Calendar. There is a start date for each variant.

Mini Cup

The Basic Round tournament starts immediately when three players are entered. The group tournament is played as a double round robin. Players scoring more than 50% of the possible points will advance to the next level.

This is how it continues. A player can play any number of tournaments. If a player advances to a level where they have already secured promotion, they will only play in one tournament at that level. However, if a tournament has already started at that level, the player has earned the additional right to play at that level.

Ladder
