↑ ^1.0 ^1.1 In the first two ECCs, Bollonich and Græntfjall sent a team comprising of two players from each nation. For the purpose of title histories, these titles are counted as belonging to both nations.
↑ ^2.0 ^2.1 ^2.2 ECCs 6, 7, and 9 used a format with a Super Six stage and no third place playoff. Third and fourth were determined purely based on Super Six standings.
↑ ^3.0 ^3.1 ECC 8 had two halves in each knockout match, with the winner being determined by the results of both matches (without taking board score into account). A blitz tiebreaker would be played if both matches were drawn, or both teams won one each.
↑ ^4.0 ^4.1 ECC 10 had two halves in each knockout match, with the winner being determined by the total score in both matches. A blitz tiebreaker would be played if the total was tied 4-4.
