How to advance in the 1st Stage
- If you keep winning in the 1st Stage, your DLv. will increase.
As you suffer more defeats in Duels, your DLv. will drop. - Those before DLv. 4 will increase in DLv. even when they lose. (Except when they surrender).
- DLv. will not drop when between DLv. 2-15, nor will it drop below DLv. 17 and DLv. 20 after reaching them.
- Once you reach DLv. MAX, you can participate in the Regional Qualifiers.
How to advance in the Regional Qualifiers
In the Regional Qualifiers, DP is earned by winning Duels.

For those who had already created a team when the WCS 2025 Qualifiers ended
If you had already obtained a World Championship Finals Invitation and was already entered into a team when the rankings for the WCS 2025 Qualifiers were finalized, you must participate in the WCS 2025 Finals with that team.

The top two ranked teams based on points at the end of the World Championship Qualifiers will be awarded the World Championship Finals Invitation.
Season points will be combined through the Duelist Cups for the 2025 season and World Championship Qualifiers. Season points are awarded to individuals, but rankings will be based on the total points of the three team members.
You can neither disband nor withdraw from a team from (when the Regional Qualifiers start) until the beginning of the next season. (You can create a team during this period.)
