General info
Welcome everyone, to Season 3 of Starcraft 2 with LPL!
Many congratulations to everyone who competed in Season 2! We hope users will be able to enjoy Season 3 just as much as they did with Season 2! We will be holding the same Divisions for Season 3 but we have made a few changes; Amateur will no longer be capped at 10 players and Open prize pool has changed!
StarCraft 2 is a special title for us as it’s the only title on our platform that is inclusive of players that are in the SEA region. Signs up will be available for those residing in Australia, New Zealand and/or the SEA region.
Season 3 of StarCraft 2 will commence on
Wednesday August 14th 2019 & will conclude
Wednesday October 9th 2019.
