Staff Changes

We are sad to announce that quintosh is retiring from his position as Head Anti-Cheat admin and will be leaving the Anti-Cheat team entirely. The expertise he gained and applied in this field while supporting the team for so many years on ETF2L was highly appreciated by all and he was able to pass down a lot of his knowledge to those following in his steps. His dedication to the cause of keeping ETF2L cheater-free and his efforts in upholding high standards in case work and improving relations with the community will not be forgotten.

Unfortunately his departure is not the only one as thaZu and nash have also left the ETF2L staff. We thank them all for their work and wish them the best in their future endeavours!

As for happy news, Faust has successfully completed his trial as a League Admin. Both Biohazard and JENNY have also proved their mettle as Anti-Cheat Admin trials and will be joining our team.
With the position of Head Anti-Cheat now being vacant, Samus receives a promotion and will resume her former role.

Bans

PLEASE NOTE THAT SOME OF THESE BANS WERE ENACTED BEFORE THE RELEASE OF THIS NEWSPOST! SOME BANS WERE APPLIED WHILE THE OLD CHEATING BAN POLICY WAS STILL ACTIVE.

Provisional Tiers

Down below are this season’s provisional tiers. If you can’t find your team it could be due to you recently changing your team name. Teams marked in yellow are more likely to be moved if there is a need to change teams around.

Unhappy about your placement? Feel free to contact us over at our Discord Server. These tiers are still subjected to change if teams make a good case as to why they should be moved. You can find the application process here.

A new way to support ETF2L!

We’re happy to announce that an ETF2L Ko-Fi has been created. For those not familiar with Ko-Fi it is a donation platform much like Patreon. Ko-Fi allows us to easily accept donations without the donators having to commit to a monthly donation. Donations will be used to cover the costs of keeping the website running and to spice up the prize pools. You have a button just below but also a permanent button on the top right along with our Discord and Twitter links!

If you plan on donating and want to donate to the prize pool of specific game mode please note that in the donation comment.

For donations of 10€ or more please include your discord tag as well if you want a nice Donator role on our Discord! We are still looking into the option for a Donator role on site, so keep your eyes peeled for that.
