Double-elimination brackets across two groups will determine six main event candidates.

The closed qualifier for BLAST Rising Asia Fall 2025 will start on 29th July 2025. Hosting a total of 16 teams- twelve from the Asian VRS and four from open qualifiers, the closed qualifier splits into four groups with the winner of each double-elimination bracket heading to BLAST Rising Asia Fall 2025.
