===Preliminaries===
The preliminaries were open to all B-Shots in the world and no form of entry was required. B-Shots were not required to participate from the start of the round and they could join the Grand Prix at any point.
The preliminaries involved B-Shots traversing the island, searching for Vertigo Spin targets to score points. When a target was hit, it would reveal any random number between 0 and 5 and give those points to the B-Shot. At the end of the preliminary session, the eight B-Shots with the most points would progress to the Finals.
===Finals===
The eight B-Shots with the most points in the preliminaries progressed to the finals. The matches were shuffled up, and chosen at random.
The game format chosen in the Finals is also chosen at random from Break Bomber, Vertigo Spin, Surge Strike and Meteor Bomber. If both B-Shots agree, custom rules can be implemented in matches as well.
