Qualifiers Period

The Qualifiers will be held privately by each of the 9 University Division, during which the selected teams will compete in two challenges for the chance to represent their Division in the Live Finals.

Collection Challenge

All four teams will participate in the Collection Challenge, where they will need to collect open-world Resources during a set time limit, with different Resources being worth different points.

Each player will be in a different world with a list of 15 Resources and their corresponding points that they must collect within 15 minutes. The team's total score will be its members' scores added together, and the two teams with the most points will move on to the next challenge.

Boss Battle Challenge

Teams are tasked to challenge as many bosses from a given list as possible within the maximum time of 30 minutes. There is no penalty for dying, and each boss is worth a set number of points. If both teams defeat all 8 Bosses listed, additional points will be given to the team with the fastest time.

Account Composition and Restrictions

All three players in one team will be in the same world and given identical accounts.

Account Composition
1. a maximum AR60
2. full map unlocked
3. all characters (Level 90, Talents at max level, except for the Traveller who is at Level 1)
4. all Constellations unlocked (Players can decide freely which one to activate)
5. all weapons (Level 90)
6. all kinds of Artifacts (only one set for each kind of Artifact)
Restrictions
1. Each Player can select 1 character of their choice. However, the same character cannot be used more than once within a Team.
2. Players can choose their weapons freely.
3. Each Team can only use at most four 5-star artifacts simultaneously. However, Teams can decide which character will use them or split the quota for different characters freely.
4. Each Team has 2 chances to change their characters/weapons/artifacts/constellation during the Match. Any change in characters/weapons/artifacts/constellation, as well as switching characters/weapons/artifacts between team members will count as one chance.
5. Players can use food for restoring HP but cannot use food that has other effects.

All Divisions must confirm their Final Team representative by May 20, 2022 before moving on to the Finals.

Live Finals

The Finals will be done Live on May 28, 2022 and held at the Platform venue in London, UK. People can come and spectate during the event.

All 10 university Teams will play Level Up and Kaeya vs. Amber for the Semi-Finals (two or three Teams at a time) followed by the top three teams playing the Collection Challenge and Boss Battle Challenge for the Final (all top three Teams at the same time).

Level Up

The Level Up Challenge requires 1 Player from each Team. Each participant will play as the Traveller and be given one higher-level character to assist. Players must use any strategy to level up their Traveler (opening chests, battles etc.) within 20 minutes.

Each Team will be ranked and awarded points based on the Traveller level reached. Players are not allowed to spend real money and will have no EXP or Primogems on the account to start with. If any Player's levels are the same, then they will be ranked by EXP.

Kaeya vs. Amber

Two Players from each Team will join two from an opposing Team in the same world, each team being given an Amber and a Kaeya prior to entering the world. Each Player will also be given a start point, and the opposing Team’s players will start across the water.

The challenge is for Players playing Kaeya to build a bridge across the water to reach the other side using ice, and for the Team playing Amber to defend using fire. Whichever Team’s Kaeya completes their bridge first within the maximum time of 20 minutes wins the challenge.

Characters are not allowed to swim. If neither Team’s Kaeya makes it across, then the Kaeya who travelled a further distance will win, and will be awarded 250 points.

Collection Challenge and Boss Battle Challenges

For the Finals, all three remaining teams will play the Collection and Boss Battle Challenges within the 50 minute time limit, and the team with the highest total collected points will win the Championship!
