Season 19 powered by Tt eSPORTS: SIGNUPS OPEN!

We’re proud to announce that the signups for Season 19 are now officially open!

>>> Sign up now! <<<

Sign-up process

Make sure to choose your desired division when signing up. If you created a new team or feel you can jump a division, feel free to apply for the division you believe you deserve you should be in. To prove you are capable of the division you applied for, we require you to submit screenshots of results from your recent practice matches or tournaments where you scored decent results against teams that play on the level you aim for. The quantity is not the most important factor in this case, it’s more of a helpful measure for us to figure out if your team will be able to keep up with the pace. There is no magical, minimum or maximum number of screenshots that you have to submit.

Please note that the success of your request also strongly depends on the free slots in the division you aim for. Established teams will be favoured over new teams or teams that request to jump a division. The screenshots have to be uploaded to an online image storage service (for example, you can use imgur or Dropbox). Keep in mind that if you opt for a zipped archives with tons of pictures attached to an e-mail, your application will be ignored. Keep it clean.

Also helpful for us, but not a must however, is adding who the opposing team is in each screenshot (and maybe even the division they played in the last time). That makes it easier for us, because sometimes it can be quite hard (especially in the lower divisions) to figure out who the teams in the screenshots are.

If you are applying for Division 6 (which is our entry division), you do not have to provide any proof that you are capable of playing at that level. This only applies to Division 5 or higher.

Please send your application to [email protected]. The division assignment request has to include the following information in order to be considered. Incomplete applications will be ignored!

  • Do not use HTML in your e-mail. If you want to add a link, just paste the link in the e-mail as you would enter it in your browser.
  • Team name
  • Team link on ETF2L.org
  • Division you apply for
  • Link to the online photo album
  • Reasons why your team deserves to be placed in the division you applied for (optional)

  11. Bloodis: (Legend) - (๑╹ω╹๑ ) said:

    but turbine was a nice change from the boring 5cp stalemate

    oh well, logjam is promising enough so it’s not all that bad, dunno what to think about backburner and tomislav being allowed but i’m guessing people are starting to do more ninja stuff with pyro and heavy then

    #metalworkscomeback

  22. Popcorp said:

    Buffalo Steak Sandvich

    hello pocket heavies!

  23. Fuxx: REMOVE said:

    allowing one or two viable unlocks used seriously in other leagues > a whole batch of dumb, trolly unlocks

  26. Popcorp said:

    the only 2 viable unlocks are Steak (healing teammates/more use for pocket heavy) and Tomislav (sneaky heavy plays?)

    Permzilla confirmed Heavy main next HL Season!

( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)

    to all of you complaining about logjam, please come to one of my threads and tell me why you don’t like it: http://etf2l.org/forum/maps/topic-29427/

  34. Silentes: wG said:

    i don’t like it

  35. Kaneco said:

    Now, why the fuck isnt the ambassador allowed yet? It seems a no brainer. The most non retarded, skill based rollout left to be allowed

  36. Fuxx: REMOVE said:

    6v6 whitelist
    brains

    Did you forget the neon annihilator last season? What did you expect

  37. robin: PRXSM said:

    Can we have a more or less vanilla tf2 for 6s like it was back in my days with few unlocks….?

  38. private_meta: STDs said:

    Please don’t make it more vanilla, 6es is boring enough as it is.

  39. Menty: SVIFT - Nein said:

    “6s is boring enough as it is”
    Nice try

  40. .kr4tos: (ETF2L Donator) - FLANK - DGB said:

    Backburner <3<3<3!!!

  41. Kaneco said:

    I meant unlock* not rollout obviously

  42. Fisherman Mamadu: |LP| said:

    new tactics will be formed going pyro backburner behing them and killing them all!

    watch them burn bitches

  43. Apolloftw said:

    ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ Give Direct Hit ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

  44. juan: adios said:

    lol @privatemeta if u find 6’s boring dont play it.
    these fucking unlocks are so shit its not youre trying so hard to make it aids

  45. juan: adios said:

    its like*

  46. Chomik: Fusion said:

    still no amby

    pls

  47. Spriggan said:

    >Backburner
    daf#qwut?!

  48. Battos: 93 - pd! said:

    Now i can be a mlg player. I can make noscope headshots.

  49. Beater: Danmark - LEGO said:

    These new unlocks add nothing to the game. If you’re going to introduce new unlocks at least make it something useful that adds viable alternatives like the ambassador or the powerjack or whatever, not just weird things you can use to troll worse teams.

  50. Beater: Danmark - LEGO said:

    Also lol @ turbine being removed for the third time, like anybody with a half a brain knew would happen. Perhaps you should reintroduce it next season to see if it’ll work out that time?!

  51. kzr_: gR. said:

    still no amby for across the map meatshots #shame

  52. Russian Guyovich: (Surging Meat Cable) - [T-A!]LoS said:

    Oh look, Turbine’s out and people are complaining about pointless unlocks being added again.

    Welcome to 2 years ago

  53. wpminnows: [PG] said:

    looking forward to running heavy to mid on every map

  54. unik4l said:

    best unlocks :D

  55. unik4l said:

    best unlocks

  56. nukkye said:

    wanted to ask , can you apply to a higher division whit logs?

  57. Fuxx: REMOVE said:

    @Beater:
    it’s ok. We can pretend to be going somewhere by continuing introducing stupid unlocks no one will use seriously, that way there is only the (very poor) illusion of change

    @Guyovich:
    The difference is that the unlocks allowed 2 years ago (gunboats, equalizer, paintrain, etc.) actually accomplished something in changing the 6v6 meta. Positively even!
    These unlocks however are absurd and it doesn’t take much to realize that. What is even more mindboggling is how genuinely useful unlocks that aren’t even OP aren’t being allowed.

    You know it really gives the feeling that whoever’s behind this is just clowning around and expecting the community to be silly enough to not realize it

    @nukkye
    I’m pretty sure you can. Honestly I’d be surprised if you couldn’t, seeing as logs have the advantage of proving the players you fought against really are who you claim them to be.

  58. Russian Guyovich: (Surging Meat Cable) - [T-A!]LoS said:

    Reading between the lines much?

    I guess you weren’t about when those other forums to discuss unlocks existed.

  59. Selek: Dr. med. said:

    You guys do realise the admins are slowly allowing all unlocks that are not breaking the balance of 6s in order to go from a “ban all, allow some” to a “allow all, ban some” whitelist?

  60. Fuxx: REMOVE said:

    Why not allow more unlocks that don’t “break the balance” like different sniper swords then? Or the market gardener? Or the scorch shot? Homewrecker? Loch n’ Load? Southern Hospitality?

    There is zero progression done by adding one batch of shitty unlocks after another. Get on with it already! Allow more shitty unlocks at once so that you can finally begin adding actually useful unlocks and get your plans done. Until that happens this isn’t really progression, it’s only pretending to have progression.

  61. Permzilla: (Legend) - (☞゚ヮ゚)☞ - WiK? said:

    There is a big difference between shitty unlocks like Fan-O’War and Sun-on-a-stick, compared to shitty unlocks like Loch N Load and Direct Hit. Both are direct downgrades to their stocks, but there are clear differences between the two groups.

  62. Raptor: BTWFC - S-O said:

    Fuxx, there are already different sniper words allowed also the homewrecker is allowed and if im true the southern hospitality is already allowed aswell xD

  63. Phnx said:

    m8 I have no idea where is this league going.
    liked it the vanilla version, and the older maps.
    atleast fucking remove granary, such a bad map.

  64. Raptor: BTWFC - S-O said:

    all the guys who think ALL the unlocks are useless dont know how the buffalo steak sandvich works
    and i liked turbine but logjam is cool aswell, im happy that logjam is in the season :)

  65. ondkaja: IKEA said:

    please don’t allow the steak sandvich. heavies to mid and instant medpacks are very undesirable

  66. ondkaja: IKEA said:

    the rest of the unlocks are fine i don’t know why you idiots are crying over unlocks that probably won’t get used anyway

  67. Baernt: :Blinky: said:

    steak lol

  68. yak: DUBSTEP - Gungaginga said:

    turbine was still better than logjam

  69. Toodles: Issue? - Issue! said:

    Doing 140 damage to a med on a last push will now be instantly negated due to meat

  70. Tenshi: 50829 said:

    Why add an unfinished and ugly map in the mappool when there are better options available?

  71. Permzilla: (Legend) - (☞゚ヮ゚)☞ - WiK? said:

    Ugly shit maps are our favourite.

  72. flushy: P.O.P said:

    should have been Vanilla+medlocks and rotate Badlands/Granary to Granary/Badlands every week…

  73. Fisherman Mamadu: |LP| said:

    rocket jumper + market gardener and sticky jumper and ullapool caber! PLZ PERMZILLHA D’:

  74. sidestep: (ETF2L Donator) - bobs said:

    dont worry guys turbine will return again in a couple of seasons

  75. hyre said:

    6v6 = dead

  76. Kind Sensei said:

    turbine – good !

  77. Collaide said:

    I wanted metalworks… and sunshine to replace viaduct

  78. Markus: nwolves - ʕ ᓀ ᴥ ᓂ ʔ said:

    Please tell me, why haven’t you unlocked the Market Gardener :c

  79. 4hp said:

    market gardener, powerjack, direct hit, ambassador, rescue ranger, vaccinator are all more interesting and useful unlocks than the ones added, although the buffalo steak should be funny :P

  80. sqooqa: cc4k said:

    Guys, I’m new here. Does status “waiting” near the competition name means that my team is okay to go?

  81. Kaelan Frey said:

    @sqooqa as long as you have created your team, assembled a full roster of 6 players, and signed up for Season 19 in the competition, you’re fine. If you’re applying for a higher division than div6 and your team hasn’t played a season of ETF2L yet, you need to provide evidence that you’re ready for that division.

  82. h3x: bedgetf2 said:

    remove logjam – bring back metalworks or turbine

    why isnt there any voting system for players? maybe try to vote it and see how it goes like?

    i mean seriously non of these unlock will be used properly, this doesnt make something good with unlocking pointless weps. try to unluck some weapons like (ambrassador / dead ringer / direct hit / quick fix or caber)

    idk maybe these items could be more fun

  83. fraac: JOHN - CENATION said:

    i wouldn’t have voting for maps, but also whatever process allowed turbine should be fixed. i have a feeling logjam will get replaced with metalworks next season

  84. snappe: half - ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡9 said:

    -logjam +turbine
