Whoever has the most points in the "W" (win) column, is in the lead in the standings.
Total game points + win percentage are used as a tiebreaker. To see the rest of the tiebreak procedures click here.

Playoff Procedures:

The top three teams from each division qualify for the playoffs. Results are calculated by Total MATCH points.

The first round of the playoffs consists of the second and third place teams from each division playing each other in the "Wildcard Round".  The second place team gets draw odds in the Wildcard Round while the division winners receive a first round bye.

The Semifinals consists of the Wildcard winners facing off against the Division Champions. The Division Champions receive draw odds.

The Championship consists of Semifinal winners playing each other. There are no draw odds in this match and if tied there will be a Blitz Tiebreaker.
