No gimmicks. You get one scheduled battle every night of qualifiers — show up, battle, win. Stack 3 wins and you're playoff-bound.
Losses never knock you out of the series — every night is a fresh start. But every night counts: all 5 are required, even after you clinch.
Starting August 25, it's single elimination: win and advance, lose and you're out. Still best 3 of 5, all the way to the title.
Nightly matchups and results, posted by 4:00 PM EST each battle day. All times EST.
Results are logged live by refs: W = won the battle · L = lost. Every battle is best 3 of 5.
No-show = automatic ejection from the tournament. No exceptions. If you can't make a night, get ahead of it through the support form.
Every qualifier night is mandatory — even if you already have 3 wins. Any no-show results in automatic removal.
Every battle in the series — qualifiers and playoffs — is best 3 of 5.
The tournament is only between you and your paired opponent. No additional creators, no supporters, no boxes. Violations mean a loss and possible removal.
Allow a 10-minute window before reporting a no-show. After that, refs award the win.
Look for the badge. A Ref Team member is in the chat during battles — tracking wins and losses, watching for glitches, making rulings.
All times posted in EST. Your battle time and opponent post on the NLA website daily by 4:00 PM EST.
Keep it respectful and sportsmanlike. Any harassment or unsportsmanlike behavior = immediate removal.
This series is exclusive to the top 10% of creators. If that's you, lock in before sign-ups close Aug 19 at 11 PM EST.
Everything goes through the Tournament Support Form — time changes, in-battle problems, missing matchups, anything. Submit early so the team can handle it before your battle.
Last-minute add-ins are accepted until 5:00 PM EST today, Aug 20 — ask your agent to get you added. Late entries don't battle until Night 2 (Aug 21). After 5 PM, the field is locked for good.
