This contest is the only one for which players have to qualify.

The best 64 players from the Classic contest of the previous season are qualified for the Champions Cup contest.

The participants will be split into groups of 8 players each. The group phase contains 7 rounds in which every player encounters every other player exactly once in a round-robin format. The winner of each duel gets 3 points. In case of a draw, both players get 1 point.
The best two players from a group qualify for the first playoff round.

Крім фіналу, кожен раунд плей-оф проводиться у два етапи. The winner goes through to the next round. In case both players have equal scores, the result of the previous playoff round is the tie-breaker criteria. In case there is a tie in the first playoff round, the result of the current Classic score is the tie-breaker criteria.
