With the extended previous Major Series season concluding just weeks ago the ESL management are already back with a new action packed edition of the highly anticipated ESL Major Series featuring a whole host of competitive titles.
The previous season saw Call of Duty 4 re-enter into the game pool, a welcome sight for the competitive FPS community. During the ESL Major Series Season IX teams from across Europe battled it out for a coveted playoff spot, and of course a chance to win the €2,500 prize fund. Eventually it came down to the final two, seeing Western Wolves defeat tournament favourites Anexis eSports in an action packing finale.
Since the Major Series started all the way back during the summer of 2007 the Electronic Esports League has hosted an impressive nine seasons spanning over thirty games, giving out over 179,000 Euros of prize money, an impressive feat for any organization and are now back, supporting the following competitive titles:
The titles for this season's competitions were chosen by monitoring the activity on ESL and across the globe, with the prizes being provided by ESL and independent companies and investors. Since the last season Quakelive has been dropped due to poor activity levels, and Call of Duty 4 has been rewarded for its good attendance and activity this time round with a €200 boost.
The tournament rankings and country slots for the games with national qualifiers alongside details on how to qualify for Season X will be announced sometime within the next 7 days.

WoT, this is basically all they get because people know the game is retarded.
Crossfire, same as WoT.
HoN, it's their last throw of the dice really, LoL has them by the nutsack.
LoL has potential to survive because Riot throw so much money into it. But if Riot ever stop, that's basically the whole community fucked, because most people will be putting money into Dota 2 most likely since there is no need when Riot do everything at the moment.
esl is so fucking lame in that point.
cod4isdead. ":D"

I am in tears. I just watched a gameplay video of World of Tanks and I have to say this is one of the funniest things I have ever seen. "OKAY GUYS IVE GOT THE BRIDGE COVERED, YOU CAN NOW PUSH IN!" and then 5 tanks start rolling towards a forest with 5 mp/h, then 2 of them crash into a tree/a rock. "GIVE ME BACKUP"
ahahhahahahahaha this is fucking hilarious.
