Each team will compete in a head to head to head to head matchup. Each team gets 18 minutes to prove their State's improv chops. At the end of the night, the audience (performers included) will vote for their 2 favorite in each match-up, who then qualify for the Quarter Finals.

This will continue until the final four when all teams will go against each other in head to head to head to head competition.

The winner of States Battle will recieve a 100 dollar bar credit at the Creek and the Cave, a championship and the all the glory to be had across the United States of Improv!
