Playoffs

Top 4 teams from both conferences qualify. Teams seeded 1st get to choose which lower seeded opponent from their conference they will face in the opening round. All rounds of the playoffs, including the championship finals, are best 2 of 3, with the 3rd game being a 15-minute mini-game, if required.
On May 21, MASL announced that it intends on having playoffs, with modifications such as one centralized location, and a five day training camp period.
However, on June 3, MASL announced that the plan from May 21 was no longer being implemented, due to logistical difficulties as well as any positives being outweighed by the negatives.
With the announcement of the Flash and Tropics winning their conferences, the 2020 season concluded with no playoffs.

MASL has announced their end of season awards schedule, starting on the 8th of April with the All-MASL Honorable Mentions team, and culminating on the 18th of April with the MVP award.
