ESL is organising it's first Canyon premiership!

[TheM]

This autumn, ESL is coming with it's first premiership for Canyon: ECP1 (ESL Canyon Premiership 1)!

A premiership?
Some of you might be known with the Premiership idea, f.e. from the CPS on Stadium. For those who aren't, we'll explain the basic ideas of a Premiership here:

A premiership consists of two phases: a groupstage and the playoffs.
In the groupstage you will compete with other teams in your group to secure the first or second place in your group. Those two positions will give you a place in the playoffs.
The groupstage consists of a number of playdays, which will depend on the amount of teams we'll get for this premiership. The groupstage will have 4 groups, over which the participating teams will be spread.
After the groupstage has finished, the best 8 will race for the prizes in the Playoffs in a Double Elimination format.

Of course, we cannot play a premiership without any maps for it.
Therefore, we ask again the community to help us out with some nice Canyon maps!
