Highlander Season 22 Polls
This seasons format will feature 8 regular weeks with 4 weeks of playoffs (3 playoff weeks and Grand Finals). There will be a fulltime rosterlock after the default match day of Week 7. Participation medals will be awarded to every division, and placement medals will be awarded to Platinum and Silver this season.
Team placements are underway. Please be patient, all teams will be placed before the start of the season. Remember that you need 9 people on your roster to be considered for placement! If your team is not yet placed into a skill division please submit a division change request from your leader panel.
After you have been placed into a division and have at least 9 players on your roster, don't forget to set your team to Ready in your leader panel to be scheduled for matches!
We are including experience from ETF2L when considering placements.
ETF2L High is considered to be Platinum. Mid is considered to be Silver and Open is considered to be Steel.
We are progressively adjusting the placement guidelines for Silver. The following changes will be amended to the Rules shortly.
The new map rotation and whitelist will be announced following the closing of the Highlander Season 22 Polls and after receiving feedback from experimental maps being tested in the Region Wars event.
Once our maplist is available it will be posted here. Our new whitelist will be made available to download here.
