Tournament Format
The road to be crowned FFIC 2022 Spring Champions will not be easy; teams will have to navigate through a total of five challenging stages in order to clinch the tournament's ultimate prize. All of the matches will be played in the Battle Royale Squad mode.
The tournament will begin with two qualifier stages where teams battle it out to earn a spot in the FFIC 2022 Spring League Stage. Participants will first compete in the Open Qualifiers via the Free Fire Cup (FFC) mode, which will see the top 42 teams advancing to the Closed Qualifiers. These 42 teams will be joined by 6 teams ranked #7 to #12 in the recent Free Fire Pro League (FFPL) 2021 Winter tournament. Taking place on 16 to 20 February, the Closed Qualifiers will further whittle the teams down to the top 12 – these 12 teams, together with the top 6 seeded teams from FFPL 2021 Winter will embark on the FFIC 2022 Spring League Stage.
The FFIC 2022 Spring will continue with teams competing across three stages subsequently – the League Stage, Play-ins, and Grand Finals.
The League Stage will see the top 18 teams divided into 3 groups of 6 teams. Each group will play against each other round robin style over the course of 9 league days, spanning a period of 3 weeks, from 11 to 27 March.
The top 2 teams from each of the 3 groups will qualify directly for the Grand Finals. Thereafter, the remaining 12 teams will take part in the Play-Ins on 3 April, where they will battle it out for the remaining 6 Grand Final spots.
Winners of FFIC 2022 Spring will get the coveted opportunity to represent the region at Free Fire World Series 2022 Sentosa Grand Final and the runner-up team will battle it out in the FFWS 2022 Sentosa Play-Ins. The top 12 from FFIC 2022 Spring will also qualify directly for the next Free Fire Pro League 2022 Summer.
