Marvel Rivals Ignite Stage 2 Playoffs: dates, format and Grand Finals spots
The official 8–18 October playoffs carry a $650,000 prize pool and decide 12 places at the late-November Ignite Grand Finals.
Marvel Rivals Season 10 launched on 11 September. NetEase’s official Ignite Stage 2 guide schedules the regional playoffs from 8 to 18 October 2026, played on Season 10 and using Thebes in the map pool.
The Pacific playoffs start 8 October and its regional final is 11 October. Americas and EMEA playoffs start 15 October, while China starts 16 October; all three regional finals are set for 18 October. Playoffs use double elimination, best-of-five matches and best-of-seven regional finals. The total Stage 2 prize pool is $650,000.
Twelve teams qualify for the Ignite Grand Finals in late November. The official guide says the finals location will be announced later, so the exact venue and dates remain unconfirmed. The game’s in-client Esports panel is the official place for match times, teams and live brackets.
Checked 7 October 2026: the next scheduled playoff day is 8 October for Pacific. This is a competitive schedule update, not a claim that a new game patch was released today.
