Swedish eSport League

Posted by Gryff at 09:37 26/3/2003.

The SEL is a new eSports entity based in Sweden. Each competing team will play from a LAN venue considered to be their Home Arena. In the National Division the competing teams and their Home Arenas are:

Teams:Home arenas:
Matrix
Matrix
NineNine
Inferno-OnlineInferno-Online
PlayITPlayIT
GamenessGameness
A-LagetICE
HighlandHighland
GameOnlineGameOnline
XPerienceGameOnline
GamepointAre3na

Each Season lasts a single month. Each seasons winner of the National Division recieves $5700 (50,000 SEK incase you're wondering why the amount seems odd).

All players participating will be under contract to their club, and you're allowed to transfer between clubs once per season.

This looks like a major step forward for Swedish eSports. You can find more information at www.sel.nu

I think the regular playing of the top swedish teams will just make them even better. They will be playing CPL level competition in GoL, 9, and matrix, and XP are up there as well with some recent wins over good teams. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Yeah I agree amrc, the UK's top clans still have all their players scattered about so they can't play regularly at LAN together like the root vegetables can.

I don't think anywhere can compete with Sweden until they have similarly nucleated teams. Sweden is a much more nucleated country than the UK though, I suppose. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
