Match Page | sskaz | Winx Club

Today's show will be mainly featuring AU related topics, we will however have a few other things though like Prolands last captime change and a Review of Logjam. There will also be a chance to ask the guests some questions!

Maybe in the future we will begin to roll in different regions, if anyone's interested drop me a message :)

The broadcast was cancelled due to STV issues, sorry guys.

Edit: Here's a POV stream from xeno player Sean: https://www.twitch.tv/sean666_

ESL of course run big events like ESL One and the Intel Extreme Masters, but they run through sponsorships.

Sponsorships are based on the amount of participants in the semi-professional scene. I can't give you numbers but we would need more teams than the whole of ESEA TF2 League. So basically, just come and play ESL!

Can't wait, send us a gif :)

No exact dates yet, the team has still got lots of planning and talking to do. So I'd be expecting something like Jan/Feb 2019 as we're reaching the end of the year.

I probably should've mentioned this, we have no control over ESEA even though they're under the ESL brand. At this stage we haven't looked that far ahead but will discuss with everyone when information about a league is made available.

Edit:

maybe cause your in a server?

Hi all,

I would like to thank everyone who voted, this was a very quick process and showed that we had a lot of support for this. ESL loved how passionate the community is for the game!

Before we can move forward, I am going to cover somethings so the community understands how ESL Play and TF2 will work and to go over the structure.

ESL's structure is based on participation. The more participants we see, the more we can offer to Team Fortress 2.

As the image shows, we will start at the bottom with ESL Open Cups, and progress all the way up to ESL Pro Events! This may seem a bit overwhelming but with community support this is achievable.

For ESL to progress us up to those levels, we need to increase the support for ESL Play. The more participants we have in tournaments, the more we can do such as Leagues and begin to roll in higher prize pools. But the keyword here is community, and ESL will be trying there best to support us and communicate to us regularly.

ESL Play Admins are watching this thread and will answer questions if they desire. Thanks everyone who has helped TF2 in anyway, lets hope we can make something good out of this.

All you gotta do is vote!

I'm going to leave the poll open a bit longer to see if we can get more votes, the more votes the better.

Cause they're trying to get a general idea for all regions, not just NA.

Please make sure people are putting in what they want to see from ESL, they want to know everything from the type of tournament to rules, structures, maps etc.

It would also be great if people can share the poll around, I've made a twitter post if it helps: https://twitter.com/mitchc___/status/1054340800388034560

Isn't that every reason why we should be on ESL Play by now??? If other games deader than us are on ESL Play, surely that qualifies us on to the website.

I don't think you will be disappointed, Every Go4 cup has a prize pool, and all run weekly and/or monthly.

I am simply relaying what was said from the ESL Play Community Manager. Please stop misleading people with your excuses and passive aggressiveness towards me, bleghfarec.

I don't wish to be rude to anyone but you can't just make excuses for something that hasn't even been seen yet, no one knows how it will run.

I understand your point, we have had many failures in this community over the last three years, but FACEIT is predominantly matchmaking and didn't offer real money prizes (I've never played it so don't hold me to that), and Razer Arena crashed and burnt.

As others have said, give it a go. We're talking about the world's largest esports company coming to Team Fortress 2.

It's purely up to the community to decide what ESL would do for us. This includes what format, rules and if it would be simple Go4 cups or fully decked leagues.
