League Structure
- Definition of Terms
- Season – Each Season is divided into two Group Stages. Each stage consists of many Rounds, Matches and Battles.
- Round – A group of Matches played on the same level in the tournament bracket.
- Match – A Match is a set of Battles between two Teams.
- Battle – The smallest unit of measurement in the tournament progression grid. A Battle is played on a single map from the ANZ Premier League Division 2 Map Pool until a winner is determined by either:
- Destroying all enemy tanks.
- Capturing the base by the Attackers.
- If no winner is decided after the time limit is over, and there is at least one vehicle remaining on the Defender’s side, the Battle is rated as a victory for the Defenders.
- Group Stage and Playoffs
- The Group Stage consists of a single Round-robin with five (5) teams. In the Group Stage, every Team plays one Match against every other Team:
- A Match consists of up to five (5) Battles in total, with a minimum of four (4) Battles played.
- A match can end in a Victory (4-0, 3-1, 3-2), or a Defeat (2-3, 1-3, 0-4).
- The Playoffs are the last stage of the ANZ B League. It starts after the ongoing Group Stage matches have been finished and Group Stage Ranking is complete.
- During the Playoffs, two (2) Teams (those ranked 1st-2nd in the Season Group Stage) will play in a Single Elimination final.
- All Matches in the Playoffs will be played using the standard Game Rules. The Matches will be played as a Best-of-7.
- Players are required to join the official voice chat channels (Discord) during matches.
- The Group Stage consists of a single Round-robin with five (5) teams. In the Group Stage, every Team plays one Match against every other Team:
- Match Schedule
- All Matches will be pre-scheduled according to the needs of the ANZBL. A full Schedule of dates and times will be communicated to the Team Representatives by the Organizer. The Schedule may be subject to change.
- Rescheduling
- The Organizer reserves the right to reschedule Matches without prior consultation with the teams. If such a situation occurs, all affected Teams will have their Team Representatives informed directly.
- Absence
- In case a team is absent for a scheduled (or rescheduled) match, the Organizer will determine the outcome on a case-by-case basis.
- Ranking
- The Ranking is primarily decided by the number of points that a Team has amassed during the relevant Season. A Team will earn three (3) points for a Victory in a Match, one (1) point for a Draw and 0 points for a Loss.
The performance of a team is based on the total accumulated points across all the phases in a Season.
- The Ranking is primarily decided by the number of points that a Team has amassed during the relevant Season. A Team will earn three (3) points for a Victory in a Match, one (1) point for a Draw and 0 points for a Loss.
- Tie-breakers (Ranking)
- The below Ranking priority will come into effect if two (2) or more Teams are on equal points. If at any point, the number of tied Teams may be reduced or divided into several groups of tied Teams, the Teams who remain tied in that sub-group will in each case be compared again, starting with the first factor below:
- Points amassed in Matches between the Teams themselves (“Mini-League”)
- Score difference between the Teams (“Mini-League”)
- Overall score difference
- Overall number of wins
- If, at the end of a Season, two or more Teams remain indistinguishable after having been compared according to each of the four factors above, a Tie-breaker Match or Matches may be played, to determine the Ranking between the tied Teams in question. In special cases, the Organizer can rule, at its discretion, on a different way to determine the order in an unsolvable tie (i.e. coin toss).
- The below Ranking priority will come into effect if two (2) or more Teams are on equal points. If at any point, the number of tied Teams may be reduced or divided into several groups of tied Teams, the Teams who remain tied in that sub-group will in each case be compared again, starting with the first factor below:

- The team who achieved Victory the fastest (having more time left before the timeout) in a single Battle as an Attacker is the Home Team in a Tie-breaker Battle
- In case no team achieved Victory as an Attacker, the Team with higher cumulative damage in one Battle of the Match as the Attacker is the Home Team.
