Based on the information on the website of the tournament operator, IEM Rio Major 2022 may undergo changes in the format of the championship. This is evidenced by the distribution of the prize fund by places, which hints at the rejection of the usual Swiss system. In particular, according to the previous format, two teams were on the last line, as well as at IEM Rio Major 2022 their number was increased to four.
In addition, the changes may also affect the championship playoffs, since, based on the distribution of the prize fund, an additional stage will appear, dividing teams into 5-6 and 7-8 places.
