Season standings

Season rules

• 12 tournaments (from Tournament 1), points add up.
• The top 10 after Tournament 12 play the Grand Final; its winner gets $300 and the “Metro King” title.
• After each tournament exactly 3 players with the lowest total are eliminated (none after Tournament 12).
• Ties: more tournament wins, then more kills, then the better Game 5 placement in the most recent tournament.
• Eliminated and disqualified players can’t register again for the rest of the season.
• Each next tournament adds 3 newcomers: 3 new players admitted by the organizer who aren't in the season yet (they count once they actually play).
• Newcomers start with 80% of the average total of the active players at that moment, rounded: average 400 → 320.
• A champion sitting out keeps his points, scores 0 (no penalty) and is protected from elimination that round.
• The winner of Tournament 12 has nothing special: no sit-out, the Grand Final follows.
• The top 10 of the season table after Tournament 12 play the Grand Final and automatically qualify for Season 2.
• Guest stars and the host are not in the season standings.
• Miss a tournament and you get −120 for it (−20 per missed game, Game 5 −40), then the normal elimination applies. Quitting mid-season means −120 per tournament until you’re eliminated. Only the sitting-out champion gets no penalty.
