Point system
Scoring
Scores were calculated based off of placements, with higher tiered events offering more points for a wider range of placements. The following factored into the final score:
- Top 3 Platinum results
- Top 3 Gold results
- Best Super Silver result
- Top 6 Silver results
The top 30 players will move on to the championships, with a Last Chance Qualifier for the last 2 slots. Of the 30, the 1 player from each region with the highest amount of points auto-qualified for the finale: North America, Central America, Europe, Japan, Oceania, South America, and a Wild Card Region comprising of every region not included in any of the other regions. The 23 highest players on the leaderboard who did not auto-qualify made up the rest of the 30 who will move on to the championships.
The point system remained mostly the same from the 2020 iteration, however an additional Silver category, titled "Super Silver," was added. To qualify for a Silver category, a tournament needs a certain amount of entrants:
| Game | Regions | Silver entrants | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Super | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | ||
 |
NA | 200 | 64 | 48 | 32 | 16 |
| All Other Regions | 100 | 48 | 32 | 24 | 16 | |
 |
NA, EU, Japan | 450 | 128 | 96 | 64 | 32 |

If two or more players on the leaderboard had the same number of points, the tie in rank would be resolved by applying the following tiebreakers in order:
- Total number of points earned from their best 3 Platinum tournaments
- Total number of points earned from their best 3 Gold tournaments
- Average points earned per Platinum tournament attended
- Average points earned per Gold tournament attended
- Number of Super Silver and Silver tournaments attended
- Total number of set wins in matches between tied players across all events in the league
- Coin flip

*Highest amount of points in their respective regions.
Though he moved to Canada in September 2022, aMSa represents Japan in the Smash World Tour 2022.[5] However, this is a moot point as the next highest player from Japan, Inngenn, is qualified in 11th place.
lloD breaks the 22nd place tie with Skerzo for having a higher total number of points earned from his best 3 Platinum tournaments (925 vs. 540). Sala is in a 70th place tie with caioicy and Mew2King. caioicy has the most total Platinum points, and Sala and Mew2King's tiebreaker comes down to a coin flip, which is unlikely to happen as it is not for a qualification spot.

*Highest amount of points in their respective regions.
Though he lived in the United Kingdom for part of the year, eMass represents Saudi Arabia in the Wild Card Region in the Smash World Tour 2022. This is because he has been living in Saudi Arabia since the beginning of the summer and has earned points in the Wild Card region since March 2022.[6]
Bloom4Eva, Gackt, and Kola are 21st, 22nd, and 23rd respectively, as their tie is broken by total number of points earned from their best 3 Platinum tournaments (925 vs. 895 vs. 820).
"World War kept"
On November 20th, the last day of the Smash World Tour, Jakal replaced kept as the last player qualified through points by a margin of just 5 points, due to the former's performance at Apex 2022. Following this replacement, a past tournament was discovered (Shinosuma #133.5), which if opted in, would raise kept's Silver points enough to pass Jakal and qualify. This led others to look for tournaments Jakal attended (such as Collision 2022) that could raise his points as a counter-measure against kept's tournaments. Due to the rulebook not stating an exact end time for the league period or any time limit for a tournament to opt into the circuit, it was up in the air for how much time people had to opt in tournaments. The event, which has since been dubbed "World War kept", ended when players pointed out a clause in the rulebook which required tournaments to be run on start.gg in order to be eligible for the SWT, making Shinosuma #133.5 ineligible to opt in as it was held on Challonge. In addition, the bracket would have to be meticulously recreated on start.gg if it were to be implemented into the circuit's leaderboards. No major changes or new qualified players ended up happening, with the exception of Collision 2022 opting in, which only raised Jakal's points by 5 and swapped Riddles over Dabuz on the leaderboards.[7]
Leaderboard points controversy
In the SWT rulebook, Section 1.2 stated that entrant counts for tournaments must account for disqualifications when tiering. Following the end of the circuit, controversy arose when it was revealed that a few Silver tournaments did not account for disqualifications. This affected the borderline qualifiers, as with disqualifications accounted, kept (at 1,165 points) and Sekai Doggo (at 1,140 points) would have more points than Sriks (at 1,130 points) and Jakal (at 1,125 points), the two players who were ultimately invited to the finale.[8]
This controversy was further exacerbated when it was revealed that, following Apex 2022 on November 22nd, 2022, a new line was added to the aforementioned section which stated that whether a Silver tournament's status changes was only decided by the tour producer.[9] In addition, both kept and Sekai Doggo have made attempts to contact SWT on the issue.[10][11]
