Prize Pool
1st: 30 days of ESL Premium
2nd: 14 days of ESL Premium
3rd: 7 days of ESL Premium

Format
We're currently collecting the data submitted by everyone to determine what format the cup will be run in. Information will be released in the ESL Team Fortress 2 discord when decided.

EDIT: This cup will be testing the Swiss system, which is a mix of both SE and DE but also has its cons. You're eliminated after 2 losses. You will play every round with a similar skill leveled opponent to yours. The team with the most wins at the end of the cup will be crowned winner. This is good for time periods (cup takes ~4.5-6h with 17+ teams) but doesn't have a grandfinal unlike the above two - More details here: https://play.eslgaming.com/swiss-cup-faq

For people new to ESL Play, here's a quick guide on how to signup to the cup: https://play.eslgaming.com/guide.

Live support will be provided during the event via this Discord: https://discord.gg/2T4MJjJ
Signups are now open on ESL Play!

Please get someone who is knowledgeable about the Euro scene to do the seedings this time around. The seedings were quite bad the last time

Racsowell this is a very short notice

Due to some internal changes with ESL rebranding, announcements were delayed. But as TimTum said it's been up since the first cup started.

BeaterPlease get someone who is knowledgeable about the Euro scene to do the seedings this time around. The seedings were quite bad the last time

It was my fault for that. Hopefully this time though it will be easier as we've decided to change the format again.
