Event Information
Enhance presents official Tetris Effect: Connected tournaments starting this year under the name “Tetris Effect: Connected World Championship.”
We’re kicking it off in 2022 with an event called Tri-Effect-A, a competitive, global, online cross-platform event for players of all skill levels. Everyone is welcome to participate!
Tri-Effect-A will test the skills of players in three modes: Zone Battle, Classic Score Attack and Score Attack. High placement in a game mode bracket will qualify the player to participate in the multi-mode main event to crown the true all-around Tetris Effect: Connected World Champion! Each game mode will have a separate bracket that will be divided into tiers based on skill level.
The tournament will be run on the Enhance Discord where players can find their matches, watch streams and speak to tournament staff. The community is also welcome to spectate featured matches! Support is available in both English and Japanese.

GAME MODES AND RULE SETS
Tri-Effect-A Tier Format
Once registration ends, the qualifying phase will begin. Players will be grouped into skill tiers based on their in-game SR for the game mode competition they signed up for.
Each skill tier consists of a double elimination bracket for Zone Battle, Score Attack, and Classic Score Attack.
The highest level skill tier, known as the Grand Master tier, will consist of the Tri-Effect-A main event. To qualify for the Tri-Effect-A bracket, a player must place in the top 4 in one of the Grand Master game mode brackets. The Tri-Effect-A main event will consist of 12 players total. If there are players that placed in the top 4 in more than one game mode, A play-in match between the next highest placements in the game mode brackets in which a player placed top 4 multiple times will be arranged using the Tri-Effect-A match format.
The Tri-Effect-A bracket seeding will be determined using a player’s overall in-game SR and tournament performance between the three 1v1 game modes.
