Editing ESEA (section)

== Format ==
The ESEA regular season consisted of 16 regular season matches, played over 8 maps with one map per week. The top teams from each division participated in double-elimination playoffs to compete for the division's prize pool. Each game in the playoff bracket in the top division was played as a best-of-3-match, while playoff games in the other divisions are single-game. Between seasons, teams were promoted or demoted to another division based on their performance during the season.

Matches were played on a single map, with two halves of 30 minutes. Depending on the game type, the win conditions differ:
* On [[5CP]] maps, the first half was played until the time limit ran out or one team won 3 rounds; the second half and the match ended once the time limit ran out or one team won 5 rounds;
* On [[King of the Hill]] maps, the first half was played until the time limit ran out or one team won 3 rounds; the second half and the match ended once the time limit ran out or one team won 4 rounds;
* On [[Attack/Defend]] maps, each half consisted of a [[Payload|stopwatch]] round. The teams alternated between attacking and defending, such as if team A defended first, team B would be the first to defend in the next round. Each team could have scored one point in a half. The game ended once one of the teams reached 2 points.
* In [[Capture the Flag]], the times of each half were only 20 minutes long and had no capture limit. The team with the highest amount of captures by the end of the second half won the round.
