The playoffs follow the first and second rounds of the page playoff system. In the first round, the first seed plays the second and the third seed playing the fourth. In the final round, the loser of 1 v. 2 plays the winner of 3 vs. 4 in the Second Place Game, like in the semifinal of the page playoff system. However, unlike the page playoff system, the winner of 1 vs. 2. The winner of 1 vs. 2 qualifies to the worlds, while the winner of the second place game also qualifies to the worlds.
