EVA SUMMIT | STAGE 1

On July 12, 2026, EVA Paris Est hosts Stage 1 of the EVA Summit. 16 teams from the local leagues will go head-to-head to grab one of the eight spots qualifying for Stage 2. Here's the schedule, the teams and the rules to know.

 🎫 The 16 qualified teams

The draw is in: the 16 teams qualified for Stage 1 of the EVA Summit now know their group. Split into 4 groups of 4, they face off on July 12 at EVA Paris Est for what promises to be a big day of competition, live on Twitch.

 ⚔️ THE COMPETITION FORMAT

In each group, every team plays the three others, for a total of three matches each, all in Best-of-3 (BO3).
A win = 3 points, a loss = 0 points, and the standings are set at the end of the group stage. The top two from each group move on to Stage 2, for a total of eight teams.

In case of a tie, teams are separated using several criteria (Differencial in rounds, points etc.). And if that's still not enough, it comes down to a decisive BO5 match, played the same day.

 🎮 THE GAMES & modes

Matches are played on After-H Battle Arena, across the two arenas at EVA Paris Est. Two modes are on the menu: Domination and Hardpoint. Each round lasts 10 minutes max in Domination, and 12 minutes in Hardpoint. In case of a tie, there's a 5-minute overtime, and if it's 100-100, the round is replayed.

As for maps, we'll be playing on 9 maps in Domination: Ceres, Silva, Artefact, Polaris, The Cliff, Helios Station, Atlantis, Engine and Horizon.
