JeeSports.et Qualifier #3 will take place next Sunday starting at 17:30CET and we currently have 6 teams who have signed up to take part. We are aiming for at least 8 teams but would of course prefer bigger numbers like 16-24. The team who wins this competition qualify for the main competition and join Anexis-eSports and ONEMOVE with the last remaining spot being the winner of Qualification tournament #4. For full details on the progression of JeeSports.ET read this post. If you are competing in ESL Winter League and are still in the competition when your arranged ESL game time comes on Sunday we will push back the round to 22CET (it would most likely be the Final).

The Crossfire Draft cup is over!.The cup started as a small idea on a teamspeak by me and owzo, it eventually grew into something much bigger through the help of many people.The inspiration was the lack of competition in the et scene and after a night of entertainment and thrilling matches we have our champions. Clown came out on top and took the gold medal, with Night trailing just behind.

After a long and hard night work of counting votes (cheers for GoldoraK!), finally the time has come to introduce you the National Captains of the NationsCup XV - Enemy Territory.

The voting stage is over and it is about time to reveal to you, your captains for this season. Thanks to everyone who signed up and we would like to thank YOU all for voting! Not less than 575 votes were cast, for a total of 81 candidates for 30 nations even if 8 candidates had 0 votes.

Crossfire Draft Cup kicks off on Thursday at 18:00 CET with the first round of games, as you will probably know the competition is single elimination with players having been selected by each captain one-by-one. The first round of games should bring some great entertaiment before what should be a star studded grand final in a competition with some of the biggest names in Enemy Territory history.

On the day, this news post will be updated with each games info giving you some regular updates on games with results and progress, below you can find the first set of games for the tournament.

After a massive amount of debate we have come to an agreement that razz is dropping out of the draft cup due to disagreements between him and other captains, his replacement is none other than upcomming german star:stRay, we selected him due to his leadership abilities and willingness to bring together the team. stRays team will consist of practically the same line-up as before. Below is the bracket for the draft cup, some interesting matches are sure to come that will be casted by owzo, owzo is sure to create some excitement, be sure to tune in for an exciting night of matches. I hope all the controversy is behind us and only exciting matches are to come.

With the recent announcement of the Crossfire Draft Tournament we are burdened with the task of assigning each player to a team. Originally we chose 40 players to form a poule, to which each captain would pick 5 from in alternating turns; this has been changed to a 48 playerpoule (Captains pick 5 Main & 1 Backup) to avoid "mercs" being taken if a main lineup player has issues.

A new year has arrived and it is time to get the winter leagues started! All swaps are done, all teams are ready. Here we go with the Winter Leagues 2012! Several matches are already scheduled while other teams are still completing their line-up for this season.

This season we are going to try to provide far more coverage than we did in the last leagues that we hosted. You will see players giving out statements about the match, interviews, an admin spectating the match, after-match statements and for the first time, match reviews for those who missed the match and want a quick story about it.

In each week we will feature/highlight the most interesting matches in the first division(3on3 and 6on6). As we are always happy to receive feedback from players, if you have any suggestion regarding what match(es) should be featured in the next weeks, feel free to post in the ESL news. We'll try to provide a voting system for this matter as soon as possible.
