Finally, here they are. The Season 28 Premiership Playoffs are upon us, and what a cracker to start them!
LEGO and Politically correct pander respectively finished at the 2nd and 3rd position in the league, being a single point away from each other. The last time these two teams faced the LEGO squad came out victorious (4-2), but had to give it all they had to obtain the victory. Losing on Gullywash during the golden cap but Josh and his teammates managed to win, what is commonly considered Politically correct pander‘s best map, Product.
But this time it could be a whole different story. With the pick and ban system we don’t know yet what maps will be played but this is where the battle begins. Will both teams just go for their favorite maps, or will they try to hinder their opponent by picking a map they’re not comfortable on.
Another point of interest lies in the presence of Papi in the Politically correct pander line-up. After mercing for the team during the recent ESU Community Rumble, the soldier from Da Choke Bustaz will once again have to step in. This being his first Premiership Playoff Game, the English pocket carries a heavy load on his shoulders.
To witness what should be one of the best games of the season, tune in this tonight on TFTV, with Cornpop and Alba on the mic, and gemm on production.

The official divisions are now released! They can be viewed on the Competitions dropdown menu, you will notice a slight difference to the way we have previously done highlander seasons.

High is now being done in two Round Robin Groups of six teams, the top three of each group will go into a six team single elimination bracket when playoffs come around. Prem, Mid and Open are unchanged from last season.

Due to high now being in RR format teams in high will need to manually schedule their games. Each week (excluding week 1) must be scheduled by the preceding Friday, if an agreement cannot be reached for a schedule both teams should comment on the match page with the days/times that they can play and an admin will schedule the match based on those comments.

There will be no wildcards.

Welcome everyone to the conclusion of the 28th season of ETF2L 6v6 for open, mid and, high. Premiership playoffs will be announced once the final games of the regular season have been played and will be updated to this post.

We hope you enjoyed the matches, and for the teams that made it through, congratulations.

All tiers will have playoffs, all playoff matches will be using the Map Elimination system. Note that all dates are estimates and teams are able to negotiate other days by scheduling with their opponents.

If you find yourself on the list of these teams expect an admin to add you and request your availability, if there is no information or insufficient information given we will have to decide your match dates for you. Keep in mind that we will try and accommodate both teams, but the match date may still vary from your provided days, if for example none of the days match with your opponent, but your opponent offered more days than you did. Deadlines listed for the matches are flexible and may be changed in certain situations if admins are contacted about allowing extensions on these.
