Teams from one Division will meet each other once. There will be 7 regular season matches, with playoffs for the top 4 of the Premiership Division and potential tiebreakers for other divisions.
PRIZES
We here at ETF2L are also working hard to provide you with the best environment for competition possible. If fighting for the European crown is not enough for you, you will certainly be thrilled to hear that Season 6 will again provide money prizes for the best teams! We cannot currently confirm who is providing the prize money, but we will announce it as soon as it is known!
Players in all divisions will receive in-game medals for winning the group, as well as participation medals for finishing the season.
In addition to the cash prize, we have top quality hardware prizes for the best team in the Premiership thanks to Tt eSports by Thermaltake. Please make sure you go and visit their website and Facebook Page to find out more about them!
