Hello friends!

IPSL Winter was a fantastic event, full of incredible games and some heartbreaking moments. Dewalt came out on top after some fierce battles, with Sziky taking second place. Bonyth was able to secure a 3rd place victory over Dragon.

But now, it's time for IPSL Spring 2026!

---

The top 4 players from IPSL Winter are directly invited to the Round of 16 this Spring, and also have won an invite with travel comp to CSLAN 4, which will have a prize pool of $2500! More details on CSLAN coming soon.

If you want to get involved, make sure to check out the sign up page. IPSL qualifiers run similar to ASL qualifiers, where there are 3 days to play, and each day is broken into groups. The top players from each group qualify into the Ro24, and also earn a couple bucks for winning the brackets. Last season was a blast, and we had some great upsets in the qualifiers. I'm looking forward to seeing what this season has to offer.

Andromeda is a faithful update to the KeSPA map, keeping the old design, but modernizing the mineral layouts and such. This was sponsored by NookS, and I'm looking forward to seeing how this plays out.

Generator is a brand new map created by Suri to be a standard 4p map, with halucinated minerals next to the main base. This is similar to the starting minerals that 76 has. The only goal of this is to speed up the early game. Beyond that, all playtesting showed that it plays like a normal map after the first minute or two. Dewalt and dxtr had a banger pvp on this during the last monthly.

Format:
Ro24: Bo1 opener matches. Winners, losers, deciders are Bo3
Ro16: Same as Ro24
Ro8: Bo5
Ro4 and up: Bo7
