Posted by Peter ptER Mather on 2011-12-15 20:18:14

ESL has today announced the ROCCAT Winter Challenge solely for the Benelux scene. The competition itself will be spread out over five games, each being released on a daily basis throughout the remainder of this week, but today the Call of Duty 4 competition has been unveiled!

For those of you that don't know of the ROCCAT brand or company they are regarded as a top manufacturer of eSports peripherals and accessories, most notably their ROCCAT Kave gaming headset which has had great success throughout Europe. The company themselves has supported competitive gaming since its creation, supporting a whole host of competitions during its lifespan, proving their commitment to the growth of the eSports market.

The CEO and Founder of ROCCAT René Korte gave ESL the following statement:
"With the ESL Benelux, we’re supporting one of the most important series of esports tournaments. Gaming is our passion, therefore we are very happy to cooperate and support gamers, now also in the Benelux region"

In order to participate in the ROCCAT Winter Challenge all you have to do is participate in one of the cups that will be taking place during January and February at the start of next year. The final rankings of these cups will determine which teams will compete in the grand final for the vast array of prizes that are up for grabs.

The Prizes


   


    5x ROCCAT Isku
5x ROCCAT Apuri
5x ROCCAT Sota Black

The tournament schedule will be announced next week alongside the official sign-ups.

@REZKU, ESL Benelux (as well as most other national sections) are managed by different people/companies than the EU Benelux platform. As these people are themselves responsible for their own tournaments and leagues, as well as funding them, it can be that for example in Benelux there is more focus on CoD4 than country X.

People are argueing this tournament being Benelux only.

Thats because ESL Benelux is oragnising it, not ESL Europe. Turtle Entertainment only support the German and European parts of ESL where as ESL Benelux belangs to a company which bought a licence of Turtle Entertainment.

ESL Benelux stands fully on its own to attract sponsors etc. Too bad they couldn't have used these prices to get an EPS up and running again

Hosting EPS season costs lots of money, it's not just the prizemoney... so some hardware prizes simply don't cut it for running an EPS season. Also EPS season is something I believe should stay exclusive with some nice prizes, not replaced by hardware. Seeing that in this case we have hardware prizes, we decided to give everyone the opportunity to participate and not just the top X teams.
