Welcome to the NFE BW CUP , Part of the NFE Classic​

The tournament begins with three separate cups: the ADV NFE Cup, the DPP NFE Cup, and the BW NFE Cup. Each of these cups will be best-of-three and single-elimination. Points will be awarded based on players' performances in each of these cups, following the standard Smogon points system (as seen in such tours as the Smogon Grand Slam and Classic). Once all three cups are over, the top 8 players with the most total points will advance to the playoffs. These playoffs will be single-elimination and seeded, meaning that the 1st seed will play the 8th seed, the 2nd seed will play the 7th seed, and so on. In each set, the higher seed will pick the tier for game 1. The loser will then pick the tier for the subsequent game.
