==Group stage==
===Draw===
Thirty six teams entered the tournament. As all the teams are unranked, there is no seeding, so all the teams are randomly assigned into 6 groups, with Groups A-C being hosted by Valladares and D-F by Chromatika.

===Format===
Teams played each other team in their group in a single round-robin format. The top two teams from each group, plus the four third-placed teams with the best record, advanced to the round of 32, and the tournament continued from there in a single-elimination bracket. 

Group standings were determined in the following order of precedence:
# Points
# Head-to-head record
# Overall goal differential
# Coin flip{{note|in reality, this was a judgement based on the quality of roleplay by the controlling user}}

In the single-elimination stage, matches were decided by extra time if scores were level after ninety minutes, and penalty shoot-out if necessary after that.
