In partnership with Neolution Technology, Invasion.Gigabyte, ZOTAC, Xfx, GeIL, eCLUB Malaysia, Pacific eSports and Twitch, the SEA League will begin a new era of gaming in South East Asia.

16 teams will compete for the total cash prize pool of USD$1,500, of which 12 of those teams are invited and the remaining 4 will be decided from 2 qualifiers, to be held on 26-27 January and 2-3 February. Each qualifier will have 2 final slots up for grabs and feature 16 teams. The final list of 16 will then do battle on 4 February. The identity of the 12 invited teams will be announced in the upcoming days.

 

With that, the streams will be hosted by BeyondTheSummit, with shout-casters, GoDz, LD and Winter bringing you the live commentary.

 

Statement by the founders John Lim and Matthias Meti Beyer:

"SEA LEAGUE has been created to evolve the current infrastructure of gaming within the region, we as a team, would like to deliver fun and a professional platform by leaders of industry. Our focus is on streaming games at the highest qualify level and to produce a great and entertaining show.
