The OWL Midseason Madness tournament comes after the Kickoff Clash, but unlike the Clash which is a regional tournament, the Midseason Madness is an interregional event. This is the inaugural edition of the tournament and as such, there exists no reigning champion or catalog of previous winners of the OWL Midseason Madness.

The Midseason Madness Qualifiers commenced on June 16, in the West region, and on June 24 in the East region. Qualifying teams will advance to the interregional tournament, with top Western teams traveling to Hawaii for the interregional tournament and the top Eastern teams remaining in their home facilities.

By July 23, the OWL Midseason Madness will see a franchise become the first winners of the Overwatch Midseason Madness.
