Elite League Season 4 with big Prize Pool
Posted: Mon 01 Jul, 2019 10:39 am
Hello and welcome to the Elite League Season 4 !
Last time around most stuff has beeing going well in the Groupstages and especially B surpriced me with the amount of activity and close games !
That means we are keeping the A and B Divison format but we return to a League strucure like in League 1 and 2. Each League will have 16 Players duking it out for 3 weeks to advance to the Playoffs which will include the Top 10 Players out of there, we wont have a Loosers Bracket this time around and the Final Stage will happen in 1 Day like a MRT Tourney. Players do still drop out for certain reasons during Playoffs especially mostly since it took that long again. I will try to cut it down to the 1 Day tourney this time around and hopefully it provide us another great League experience !
1. When does it start?
24th July is the planned date, it will be played on Patch 2.9.2
2. Who can join?
Tier 1 Players only in Division A
Tier 2 Players with at least 500 Hours Playtime in Division B or bottom Tier Tier 1 Players
If you think you belong in another League I will place you try to prove that by playing more ranked games on the ladder so I can watch your gameplay.
Preferably the Players who want to join the League have to play at least 10 ESL matches in the past 2 weeks.
3. What is the format?
1v1 Location: Random Resources: standard VPS: 500
In the group stage it is going to be one BO3 vs each player. The group stage will last 3 weeks.
After that bottom 6 Players drop out and Top 10 are seeded into the Final Bracket Stage.( also called Playoffs)
4. When does a League game count as one?
- Both players have to use the ESL Reporter.
- Both players type L within the first minute. If an admin is present then 1 player typing L is enough.
- You can only pick one of your 5 chosen heroes during the matches.
5. Maps & hero picks.
Heroes
You can only play your heroes once each match!
Each player has 1 hero veto per match. The veto only lasts for 1 game.
Players who go random dont have to call the hero they get but they loos the right to ban a hero from the opponent.
If a soundbug or other crashes happen the Player has to pick the same Hero he randomed last time again !
Group stage (BO3)
The map is chosen by the random map picker. The same map can only be played once per match.
Each player can veto 1 map during a match. That map is then banned for the rest of the match.
The player on the top bracket is always asked first if he wants to veto if he hasn't yet.
Once the map is chosen, the player in the top bracket will have to pick a hero first.
After the first game, the player who won the previous game has to lock into a hero first.
Play-offs (BO5)
The first map is set. From game 2 and onwards it's losers pick.
Once the map is chosen, the player in the top bracket will have to pick a hero first.
Hero picks then keep alternating between player regardless of who won.
6. Punishment for not playing/delaying to much.
Each Player needs to play his week set BO3 matches each week to not slow down the progress. You will always have fixed opponents for every week.
You can delay one match to the next week but then you have to play one of your next week matches that week instead. You also get a penalty for doing it for one match the second match onwards gives you 3 Penalty points.( With 10 you are Dqed and not allowed to play in the next Season as well)
Please inform the admins beforehand if you are not able to play on certain days.
If a player didn't warn an admin or the opponent that he is not able to play then he gets 3 days to play it or else he will get an auto loss.
You can postpone a BO3 if you agree with your opponent to a different date.
