The tenth Ozfortress Winter League was held in the latter third of 2013. It saw the return of Division 6, and the continuation of Team Immunity's domination of Premier Division. During the season, it was announced that medals would be given to all teams who successfully completed the season, much in the same manner as the standard UGC medals. This article is about Premier Division. For results of the other divisions, see Ozfortress Winter League.

In the wake of Insomnia49, antwa left Team Immunity and they picked up subtitled. They were considered clear favourites before the season, with their only real challengers being supervillains, who they had just defeated in OZFC 3.

After OZFC 3, termo and zaka left supervillains, and they picked up buddah and spaceman, with eps moving from roamer to pocket. Their lineup was considered by many to be weaker than the roster which termo had led a month earlier. However, they challenged Team Immunity in the final, and termo's replacement spaceman was awarded the best demoman award, and zaka's replacement eps received the best pocket award.

Due to players deciding to take a break after OWL 9, the wu roster was substantially different to the season before, where they also placed third. Due to the demise of Rewound, they were able to pick up the best soldier of the previous season, pr1med, albeit playing scout, and long-time Premier Division roamer Raiin, resulting in what many saw as a stronger team.

After a complete roster reformation, the team that had placed second in Division 4 in OWL 9 resurfaced in Premier Division, picking up a variety of players who were on the verge of making a move into Prem. Despite this inexperience, they produced a solid showing in OWL 10, managing to make playoffs and end up in fourth place.

Comprised of a number of players who have been in the top divisions for several years, SixUp was intially favoured to become the fourth playoff team, but issues within the team resulted in a disappointing fifth place finish, only winning two matches all season (although they gave mG:S a forfeit win.)

A team which had worked its way up from the middle divisions, led by noted offclasser Abender, they were bolstered by the pre-season acquisition of tonberry. Due to other teams forfeiting matches in the latter stages of the season, mG:S ended up in sixth position, above their pre-season expectations. Tekk was named the Most Improved Player in Premier Division, and the team as a whole received the Friendliest Team award.

The Australian incarnation of global sponsor Crack Clan, this team found themselves in Prem after winning Division 2 in OWL 9. Before the season, they were aiming for a mid-table finish.

The latest incarnation of RAC, East Gosford Meats was predicted to finish at the bottom of Premier Division, contesting mG:S for last place. Although they picked up termo after GeT-RiGhT left due to other commitments, it was not enough to save them from the bottom of the table. Despite their last place finish, there were encouraging signs for EG Meats, as they took rounds off many of the playoff teams that rolled the teams around their position on the table.
