The winners of the upper bracket will receive a direct invite to the Finals, whereas the teams in the lower bracket have to win two series to qualify. All matches are best-of-seven (Bo7).

The Final will use a single-elimination bracket and a best-of-seven format for all games.

Previous The Gauntlet Champions

There have been numerous The Gauntlet champions since the introduction of the series in 2019; however, it wasn’t until 2020 that The Gauntlet Final was introduced when Renegades won the inaugural The Gauntlet title.

Renegades added another The Gauntlet trophy in 2021; however, the team is not attending The Gauntlet Season 5, as the squad released its entire roster in 2022.
