The IDL Explained

How each event works. Breaking down the basics.

Heads-Up Battles

Heads-To-Head Battles

Our competition begins with 6 total teams. Each team will be randomly assigned an opposing team to compete against. This will include 3 sets of 1-on-1 dance battles.

Scoring with Top Judges

Scoring Points

A panel of 9 dance professionals will score each team's performance based on 5 categories: Technique, Choreography, Performance, Musicality, Impression

How Points Are Scored From Battles

Points Earned

Each vote per judge is equal to one point for a total of 9 available points per matchup.

Battle Winners Move On To Round 2

Advancing

The three teams who were awarded the most points in their matchup will advance to the next and final round.

Round 2 Finalists Face Off

Final Battle

The 3 winning teams of the previous round will now face off against each other, performing a second new routine that is unique from their first.

Round 2 Finalists Are Placed 1st, 2nd, 3rd

Final Scoring

The final 3 teams are scored with the same rubric, but given a score out of 100. The teams are then ranked 1st, 2nd, and 3rd! They earn 7, 5, and 3 points respectively toward the IDL championship.

Points from Battles and Round 2 Finals are added together for full results

Final RESULTS

Each team earns 1 point for each judge vote from the heads up battles and the points earned from the final battle. These points will be added to their total series points, leading to a champion at the end of the season.
