The Season 4 Map Pick Phase is starting coming Monday. Every team will have to pick one map against every opponent of his Division. After the Map Pick Phase is over, the picks will decide which maps two teams will have to play against each other. If two teams picked the same map against each other, it can be changed once to a Secondary or 3^rd Party Map (see Rule 2.8).

Note: Every team who doesn’t submit their Map Picks in time will lose their spot. Be sure not to miss it.

Like every season we will have some changes in our Map Pool. After some internal discussion we already decided to add the two standard maps pl_badwater to the secondary and tc_hydro to our 3^rd Party Map Pool. Also cp_steel and ctf_smooth_b2 [Map Info – Download Link] will be added to the Secondary or 3^rd Party Map Pool which will be decided by the community. Besides these we also added two public polls if cp_freight_b3 and/or cp_fastlane should be moved into the Primary Map Pool. Vote below!

Current Map Pool

• Primary Map Pool (can be picked 3 times) – cp_badlands, cp_gravelpit, cp_granary, cp_well, ctf_turbine
• Secondary Map Pool (can be picked 1 time) – cp_dustbowl, cp_fastlane (public poll!), cp_freight_b3 (public poll!), cp_labor, ctf_2fort, ctf_mach4, ctf_well, pl_badwater, pl_goldrush
• 3rd Party Map Pool (see Rule 2.8): cp_redstone_b2, cp_science2, cp_stag, cp_warpath2, tc_hydro

All polls will close Sunday, 4^th January, at 22:00 CET.

The next step is done! Today we will announce our provisional Division seeding for Season 4. All 250 teams have been divided into Divisions from 1-6. Due to the increasing number of teams we had to add a 6^th Division level with another six Divisions with 10 teams each. All other Division levels are keeping their structure from Season 3. The Season 4 promotion and relegation system will have some changes which are published soon.

Our provisional Division announcement is a feature for all teams. The primary function is giving teams who feel overrated and would like to play in a lower Division level time to give us a notice. But also we will give teams who feel underrated time to make a request about getting promoted to higher Division level in our final Divisions. See below for instructions.
