ISML 2019/RS Male

This page contains every male regular season match in ISML 2019, including wildcard rounds.

2019's regular season is split into seven periods. All periods are split into groups of 4 contestants in a single round-robin format - each player plays all other opponents in their group once. Ranking is decided by Wins --> head-to-head record --> CVPD (cumulative vote points difference). A character who manages to play the entire regular season will play a total of 21 matches (7x3).

Unlike the last  three editions, there is no direct elimination from groups; all bottom placers are relegated to Wildcards, and all wildcard rounds will eliminate 8 characters. As a result, it is theoretically possible for a character to advance to playoffs without winning a single match, but that requires surviving all seven wildcard rounds, which is obviously a near-impossible task because of the unpredictable nature of multi-man formats.
