Two Worlds
Spring League 2026
Rules and Guidance
Welcome to the 2026 FFR Spring League. This is our yearly event that pits teams of racers against each other for a chance at glory. Note, however, that a few things have changed to the format since Fall League 2025. This year's Spring event will be between teams of three (3) players, with the schedule expanded to seven (7) weeks, the first four (4) of which are open to all teams, with a two (2) week semi-finals bringing in a max of eight (8) teams, all before finals between the two (2) teams (and a brozen match between the next two (2) teams).
We invite all interested players to come and join the league, form a team, and get ready for the delightful chaos of this year’s event. Please make sure to have all members of your team read these rules, and the General Rules and Guidance for Tournaments and Leagues, before registering for this event.
About the League
Players will group up in teams of three (3), no more or less. Each week of League will feature different flags (listed below in the “League Flags” section) and three (3) races of that flagset (with different seeds) each week. Each player on the team must race once each week (and only once unless prior approval is given that week by the League Staff).
Tournament Structure:
During the first four weeks, the League will be open to all teams. Once the first four (4) weeks are over, points will be totaled and half the teams will then move into Semi-Finals, capped at eight (8) teams. They then compete in semi-finals during the next two (2) weeks (all other teams are, at this point, out of the League). For semi-finals, points are not reset (unlike it previous Leagues). Instead, scores will carry over but bucket points during these two (2) weeks will be doubled. This gives some teams an advantage if they did well during the main weeks of league, but doesn't make their score so outlandish that no one else can catch up. At the end of semi-finals, scores are totaled again and the top two (2) teams will complete in the “Gold Medal” match, while the next two (2) teams can compete, if they so choose, in a “Bronze Medal” match.
As is tradition, the Finals Week races will be a Rally Race (for Gold and Bronze), although because teams are now made up of three players, it will be a 3v3 relay. Details are provided in the General Rules and Guidance for Tournaments and Leagues.

League Schedule:
Dates and times for the specific games will be settled closer to League start. A survey will go out to all registered players in order to determine each player's availability. Scheduled days for the matches will be determined based on a schedule that will suit at least one day/time for each player on the team. The schedule will be created based on the submitted information for all players and we will ensure as best as possible that every player can make at least one race. If your team signs up after the schedule survey has been closed, then your team will need to conform to the schedule already posted. No changes will be made once the schedule is posted.
League Points:
Scoring for the races will be handled via “bins” (meaning that players that come within a certain amount of time from each other will score the same amount of points). This helps to “flatten” the scoring curve and keep competitive teams within closer distance of each other. A full breakdown of the bin system for scoring is available in the General Rules and Guidance for Tournaments and Leagues. Unlike in past years, bonus points for each week will not be offered.
- Note: during semi-finals, points for bins will be doubled. All points available will be reflected on the League score sheet.
Additional points will be awarded for assisting with race crew during the week (1 point per slot filled, with a maximum number points per team determined by how many teams we have in the league).
League Flags:
Spring League 2026 is the story of two worlds slowly breaking apart, with a band of heroes fighting to unify and restore the scattered planes. Each week tells a story leading to the final battle to save the world.
Note: Dark World flags will need the use of the Dark World Resource Packs (which will be linked in the flagset and should auto-load from the wiki) and the Dark World map (which players will need to load in themselves).

Flagsets
- Week 1: Glitch in the System (Light World)
- When the light warriors touch the black orb to seal away Chaos, the orb shatters and flies out of the Temple. As their magic flies by, creatures flee the overworld taking refuge inside. Some grow even stronger as rifts to another dimension begin to open and reports of the Lefenish legendary weapon begin to appear all over the world.
- Week 2: Solo Adventure (Dark World)
- One hero wakes up in a new world, alone but ready to explore. This light warrior is among the most capable there are and has answered the call to adventure, but they will have to persevere through new challenges if they want to conqure this new land.
Note: if the first two races choose the same forced character (ex: two red mages), then the third race will run on a modified flagset to guarentee that the other class will be selected (ex: red mage removed so forced thief).
- One hero wakes up in a new world, alone but ready to explore. This light warrior is among the most capable there are and has answered the call to adventure, but they will have to persevere through new challenges if they want to conqure this new land.
- Week 3: The Art of Preparation (Light World)
- The orbs have reconstituted but the seal remains weak from their shattering. The heroes' power is limited due to the weak seal. They'll have to leverage their industrial allies to gear up and go.
- Week 4: The Missing Heroes (Dark World)
- Trapped in the Dark World, the heroes find themselves seperated, with danger on every side. They have to find their way through this dangerous parallel dimension, regroup, and try to stop the darkness that is spreading across both worlds.
- Semi-Finals Week 1: Maximum Magika (Dark World Shattered Planes)
- Now comfortable in this other worldsurroundings, the heroes harness their newfound abilities to defeat the evil within. But the world has changed and the corruption spreads. The heroes will need to band together to try and save this world, before Chaos is able to corrupt them both..
- Semi-Finals Week 2: World of Transformational Decay (Light World)
- The light world is falling into disarray; reality is unstable. The fiends are tearing the world apart. By this point, the remaining survivors are quite experienced but are also injured. These survivors have fled to the sky where they can’t be touched by the melting and monstrous surface. However, they realize they are running out of time, and so must neutralize the fiends long enough to escape to the dark world.
- Finals: The Grand Rally (3v3 Version) (Dark World Shattered Planes)
- This is it. The final battle. One last strike at the darkness that has infected the world. Everyone will have to band together to fight the corrosive evil spreading across the dimensions. Win, and both realms are saved.
* Note: Flagsets may be subject to change before launch of league as some tweaks are made.
