We are proud to announce that the ESL 5on5 Firefight Autumn Season 2015 will start on 26th October 2015!

It doesn't matter what your reason is, or if you don't have one at all, come join us in our first League! NOTE: The Start of the ESL Insurgency Autumn Open League is postponed by one week. Signups until 29th October - FIRST Matchweek starts 2nd November. Who is allowed to join?This League will be open for every team around the world, no matter the skill-level or region the players come from. There will be an Open League available to all whom wish to join it with each team being granted the possibility to progress to the Playoffs if they do well enough! On top of that, we will release a Qualifiers League next season for those teams whom made it through both the Open League and Playoffs, so there is a lot to get excited about! We plan to open multiple regional divisions/groups. This will hopefully balance out the potential issues with ping and latency on the group stage matches and provide a fairer platform for players to compete on. Basics
Conditions
The Season will consist of Group Stages and Playoffs. In the Group Stages you will compete against each team in your group twice. You will always play one of those two matches as the home-team, and the other one as the away-team. The Hometeam will choose both the server and the map to be played that match. By structuring the League this way, each team has the chance to play on their favourite map and will provide the opportunity to beat teams with a higher skill level. This will also resolve possible ping issues due to each team facing each other twice. Read more about he "home/away" setup in the league rules. Date & Time
The Group Stages/Open League will start on 26th October 2015. A match will be scheduled for each week with the top seedings of each group being qualified for the Playoffs. At this current moment in time, we are unable to provide details of dates in regards to these Playoffs until the number of teams entering the Group Stages is confirmed. PlayoffsPlayoffs will be played in a BO3 (Best of 3). This means that you will face your opponent team a maximum of 3 times. The lower-seeded team will start the first match as the home-team and will be the away-team in the second. Should the third map be needed, the lower-seeded team will also be the home-team. Depending on the number of contestants in the Playoffs, teams may qualify for a place in the Qualifiers League. RulesetWe will soon release a rule-set dedicated to this League, so stay tuned!
