More details have been revealed for North America’s Marvel Rivals Showdown at Twitch Rivals, hosted by content creator Abe ‘BaboAbe’ Chung.

From schedule, tournament format, prize pool and more, here is everything to know about the upcoming Marvel Rivals tournament streaming on Twitch.

According to Twitch Rivals, the event is scheduled to take place from July 18th to 19th, 2025, beginning at 10:00 PM GMT+1. In total, 48 players will be divided into eight teams of 6, with team captains selecting members through a Snake Draft offline.

Abe’s Marvel Rivals Showdown will be a two-day competition, with the first day hosting the Seeding Stage, and the Bracket Stage taking place on the second day.

The Seeding Stage will see a Round Robin; seven rounds will be played, and each will be played to BO1. It is important to note that no team will be eliminated during this stage.

There will also be a specific order of maps played across seven rounds in the Seeding Stage:

  • Round 1: Domination Royal Palace
  • Round 2: Convergence Shin-Shibuya
  • Round 3: Convoy Midtown
  • Round 4: Domination Krakda
  • Round 5: Convergence Symbiotic Surface
  • Round 6: Convoy Yggdrasil Path
  • Round 7: Domination Hell’s Heaven

The Bracket Stage will be Double Elimination, with seeding based on placements from the previous stage. The Winner Bracket will be BO3, and the Last Chance Bracket will be BO1.

Map selection will be different this time around. The first map will be decided randomly, with the higher-seed deciding which side to take if it’s an attack-defence map. The losers of the first round will choose the second map, and the third map will follow the same rules based on the results of the second round.

The Twitch Rivals event will offer a prize pool of $150,000 (~£115,000), which will be split across the two stages based on placements.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
