Once you’ve got your hands on Marvel Rivals’ closed alpha codes, you can invite your friends to join the fray, build up a six-man faction to participate in the Dawn of Legends tournament, and take a slice of the prize pool. While the game’s only been out for a few days, new strategies can be used to spice up the tournament, as there are no underdogs or favorites, and everybody shares an equal chance of winning it all.

Here’s everything you need to know about Marvel Rivals’ Dawn of Legends tournament.

Unfortunately, when writing this piece, the Marvel Rivals Dawn of Legends tournament’s signups are closed, and the open qualifiers are ongoing. 

However, if you couldn’t make a faction due to a technical error on May 14, the developers have posted a survey on their official Discord server. The survey can be filled out before 7pm CT on May 15 to get an entry to the tournament’s open qualifiers.

The Marvel Rivals Dawn of Legends has three phases:

  • Registrations from May 10-13: You need to reach a competitive rank of Silver three to qualify for making a faction and joining it. 
  • Open Qualifiers from May 14-16: Teams can play up to six best-of-one matches and can qualify for the main knockout stage based on their points. 
  • Knockout Stage from May 17 to 19: The last 64 teams ultimately fight to reach the finals and win it all.

After fighting it out in the knockout stage, the top teams will share a prize pool of $22,500. The Marvel Rivals Dawn of Legends tournament champion takes $10,000, while the runner-ups take $5,000. Third place secures $2,500 and the fourth place team takes $1,000. 

Teams who secure the top 16 spots in the tournament will also take home a part of the prize money.
