Pinball at the LAB

Match Play Classic

The original Target Match Play event returns in 2023 to the Riverside Game Lab with a maximum of 100 players!

PATL is a tiered-swiss format tournament.

Players will be placed into four-player groups (occasionally three-player) to compete on an individual, randomly selected machine.

Points will be awarded based upon performance on that machine (7/5/3/1) and added to a running total for the tournament.

A player qualifies for finals by reaching or passing a target value of 70 points at which point the player no longer competes in the qualification rounds.

Match play will continue until all available finals positions are filled.

If the time allotted for match play expires prior to filling all finals positions, the remaining positions will be filled based upon rankings tabulated at the conclusion of the final match play round.

Playoffs will be broadcast this year on Twitch via IE Pinball.
