E-League is an esports league and Australian television show. It was announced in January 2018 as a partnership with Fox Sports and Twitch.[1] Currently, the competition is broadcast only on Twitch on the official E-League channel.[2]
Each club is represented by two competitors in the E-League (one in each division).[3] As of 2024, there will be five regular "matchdays", and competitors will play best-of-one games in all phases, including the playoffs and final match. The top eight players in the main division will advance to the playoffs, and the bottom four will play against the top four players from the lower "Challenger" division in what is called the "Gauntlet". The two best players in the Gauntlet will also advance to the playoffs for a total of 10 final competitors.
The playoff round is played in a double-elimination format, and will determine four finalists who will ultimately compete for two spots in the final.
The grand final is a one-off match (unless there is a bracket reset; if a player from the lower bracket wins, the game is re-played), with the winner receiving a cash prize along with an invitation to the EA SPORTS FC Pro World Championships.
