With the signups closed, we are happy to announce the provisional tiers & our Premiership Qualifier teams! As well as the teams who have already secured their place in Premiership for this season! Below you can find all the info on the provisional tiers, Premiership Qualifiers. Class restrictions will be updated here between now and the release of Final tiers this Sunday/Monday. The Final leading class restrictions will be on it’s own page when final tiers release.

Provisional Tiers

Down below are this Season’s provisional tiers. If you can’t find your team, it could be due to you recently changing your team name or not having 9 players rostered on your team page. Teams marked in yellow are more likely to be moved if there is a need to change teams around.

If you don’t see your team but you still intend to play, please make a ticket. If you signed up but already know you’re not going to play the season please also make a ticket. If you’re on the waiting list due to a late signup please make a ticket. If you have any other concerns regarding class restrictions in your division or the provisional tiers in general, please make a ticket.

Final Tiers will release on the 16th or 17th of August.

Premiership

Based on previous season’s performances, the following teams have secured their places in Premiership for this season:

• TWICE
• Feila finanzieren durch DROPS
• pollos

Additionally, based on their roster strength, we have decided to bring the following team into Premiership without them having to go through the qualifiers:

• My New Highlander Team

Which leaves us with the following 3 teams to battle it out for the remaining 2 spots in Premiership:

• Physics & Maths Tutor
• ChudsX6
• Kazakh e-Sports powered by Chapman

Premiership Qualifiers

This leaves us with the last 2 spots being decided in the Premiership Qualifiers between 3 teams in a round robin format. The matches will be:

• Match 1: Physics & Maths Tutor vs ChudsX6
• Match 2: ChudsX6 vs Kazakh e-Sports powered by Chapman
• Match 3: Kazakh e-Sports powered by Chapman vs Physics & Maths Tutor

The two highest scorers at the end of the bracket will claim a spot for themselves in Premiership. If there is a three-way tie, the tiebreaker is first decided by map win difference. If that also leads to a tie, it is decided by rounds won. The loser of the bracket will be placed in High/Division 1.

The result deadline for all Premiership Qualifier games is August 19th, 23:59. Games may be played in any order. If a single team loses both games, they would instantly lose the qualifiers, and the 3rd game between the other 2 teams wouldn’t have to be played.

To facilitate the qualifiers, the start of week 1 of Premiership and High has been delayed. Week 1 will commence the day after all necessary qualifier games have been played.

Pick/Ban Format & Map Pool Premiership Qualifiers

Teams will follow the pick & ban process outlined below, using only the following subset of maps:

Both teams need to agree on who eliminates first. If the two teams cannot agree, they need to perform a Heavy Fist Fight [Explanation]. The winner of this Heavy Fist Fight can decide which team is Team A and which is Team B.

Team A bans a map
Team B bans a map
Team B picks a map
Team A picks a map
The remaining map will be the decider

Map pool:

• pl_upward_f12
• pl_vigil_rc10
• cp_steel_f12
• koth_proot_b5b
• koth_product_final
