Welcome everyone to the conclusion of the 19th season of ETF2L Highlander for Open, Mid and Premiership. As there are still matches to be played for Division 1 and Division 2 tonight their respective playoffs will be added later tonight.

We hope you enjoyed the matches, and for the teams that made it through, congratulations.

All tiers will have playoffs, all playoff matches will be using the Map Elimination system. Note that all dates are estimates and teams are able to negotiate other days by scheduling with their opponents.

If you find yourself on the list of these teams expect an admin to add you and request your availability, if there is no information or insufficient information given we will have to decide your match dates for you. Keep in mind that we will try and accommodate both teams, but the match date may still vary from your provided days, if for example none of the days match with your opponent, but your opponent offered more days than you did. Deadlines listed for the matches are flexible and may be changed in certain situations if admins are contacted about allowing extensions on these.

Schedule

For Division 2, Mid and Open tiers, the schedule for the playoff matches will be the following.

• Quarter final matches will be played from 8th– 14th September.
• Semi Finals will be played from 15th  – 21st September.
• Grand Finals will be played from 22nd – 29th September.

For Premiership and Division 1 we are going with single elimination bubble bracket, the schedule for the playoff matches will be the following.

• The Semi Final results must be submitted by 17th of September and the Grand Finals must be played by 29th of September. If you need to play outside of these dates contact an admin.

Next up, the Main Season

If your team is signing up for a specific tier that might seem out of place you can give us additional information. The way to do this is explained at the bottom of this newspost. Teams looking into playing in either division 1 or 2 will need to sign up to High tier when signing up for the season. If teams would want to specify to which of these Divisions they want to be placed in, we strongly encourage teams to send in an application to us with the said method below.
