The too 3 in each block advance. Winners go to the Quarterfinals, others to Round 1.
In Red A, Kurara can’t win the block and is now on life support with only Tora left. Basically she must beat Tora and then needs everyone else to have a bunch of no contests. She currently loses all tiebreakers (she only beat Rina & Kurogame). If AZM, Maika or Inaba win again or one of Tora, Rina or Kurogame get to 7 points, Kurara is OUT.
In Red B, C is now OUT because she currently loses all tiebreakers. Technically she still has a chance. Realistically, no.
The Blue Blocks were held back the first week due to scheduling with international participation so they are still just getting started, but Amasaki & Furusawa already face elimination.
Tiebreaker is head-to-head result. In the event of head-to-head tiebreakers being draws, the next tiebreaker is wins. If both don’t settle it or if there are 3 or more tied, a tiebreaker match will be held. Keep that in mind for those with draws so far.
The next event is Saturday at Sendai Pit in Sendai with only the Blue blocks. Live streaming on Stardom World will begin Friday at 9 PM PT/midnight ET.
