Announcing the ETF2L Summer Sensation!
July 20, 2017
With Season 27 in the playoff stages the season is over for the majority of teams. However there is still over a month to go till the insomnia61 LAN kicks off, but do not worry as here at ETF2L we have a series of summer cups both serious and fun planned over the next month.
There will be a cup run each week. In this post we will have info on the first two of the four cups, the schedule and info for the later pair of cups will be released after the first two have concluded as these cups are still in planning stages. If you have any ideas that you would like to see for a short weekend cup let us know either on discord or in the comments.

Prolands cup powered by serveme.tf
The second cup in this series will be slightly more serious than the BBall one, 6v6 this time but focused around cp_prolands_b2. A rework of the historic map cp_badlands by 
Collaide with some small but significant changes all over the map but in particular to last point. Teams will be split into round robin groups of four teams with the top two advancing to playoffs. Teams will be placed in groups according to their skill level.
Sign-ups for Prolands cup will be open until Wednesday 2nd 23:59 CEST. The fixtures will be published on Thursday morning so that teams may play group games on Thursday or Friday if both teams can agree. All group matches without submitted results by Saturday 5th 23:59 CEST will be coinflipped. All matches will be BO1.

Additional rules:
Standard ETF2L 5CP rules will mostly apply for this cup which you can find on our General Rules page. In short: Timelimit 30, Windifference 5. However, if the score is equal after the timelimit of 30 minutes is reached, a Golden Cap with timelimit of 10 minutes will be played. The team that scores a round first during that Golden Cap or, if the time runs out again, whichever team holds the middle, wins the golden cap.

almost thoughts its gonna be a prolander cup lol
We could run a prolander cup in one of the later cups if there is interest in it ;)
why would the 2 people interested play for free when they could be payed by sigafoo
idk would like to do prolander more than play solly
swag
prolander would be cool, especially the idea of teams banning weapons instead of a general whitelist
Bball with or without freezecam?
smh why did i even bring this up, now their gonna do it….
@Clark, without freezecam, forgot to mention it in the post at first but it’s now there.
mge scout cup when
I 2nd mge scout cup
SENSATION
scout cup would be fun
Well technically the only thing I changed on the last point was the spawn times for both teams, but I’ll let it slide ;)
I forgot the vents
will we get medals for bbal cup like we did for the ultiduo cup?
MGE cup. Prolander 7v7. Why are neither of these a thing :(
@Polarium: There are no bball medals in the game. So unless someone wants to make them there will be none.
So the prize is only for the Prolands cup? Not the Bball cup?
I dont want to ask valve for additional medals designs to be added only 2 months after the previous addition.
And yes, prize is prolands cup only.
Another Forsaken/Winter Map Cup would be fun again. You can have a lot of maps in the mappool, and for every match you can pick/ban maps or something like that.
Sounds too messy for a main map pool tbh. There are a lot of maps with potential though.
Trying to sign up for bball, but it says I don’t have permissions?
You have to be on a 2v2 team and either a deputy or leader.
Ah, thanks. Does it matter which division I pick? Or is it just one div?
Its 1 div.
I want medals
add me kKaltUu

@MrSmithers: “The top two teams from each group will proceed to the single elimination knockout stages”

People might cringe, but i think you should make a pyro tennis 2v2 cup i think it’s a good idea
