Any returning team's Squad Leader should confirm their participation on Discord by 22nd of March. (in #squad-leaders)
Format
- Ten week regular season, and potential 1-2 weeks of playoffs depending on Division and Standings.
- Every Sunday, 19:00 CEST (pre-play possible)
- Double round robin (6 team divisions: each clan meets twice) Some divisions may have a slightly different format if they don't have 6 teams.
- Each week's match consists of 4 - 1v1s and 1 - 2v2, all best of 3.
- Starting map given per week, then loser pick, no repeat maps (unless both players agree)
- Scoring: 1 point per bo3 win and 1 point per Clan War win (i.e. Total match score is 3-2, winning team +4 and losing team +2); Walkover penalties: -2 for full CW, -1 if only 1 or 2 sets are walkovers.
Little League
All above format information applies for Little League.
Little League has a mmr cap of 1800 MMR. Players that exceed 1800 MMR are not allowed to play in Little League, this includes off-racing.
All Little League players must have at the least 20 non-leaves ladder games on their BWCL ID, that is under their main username with clan handle on the EU gateway.
We are introducing MMR locked slots for this season of Little League. The 4 1v1s of each week will have the following MMR limits.
Slot 1 1700-1800
Slot 2 1500-1699
Slot 3 1500-1699
Slot 4 0-1499
A player can play in a slot above their MMR but not for a slot below their MMR. A 1500 player could for example play in Slot 1 but not in slot 4.
Little League rosters must include a cwal link for the players together with their names and battletags.
Little League will be 12 weeks long compared to the usual 10 weeks of the regular season.
