HOW LONG DOES THE SEASON LAST?
Seasons last up to 12 weeks. 2 weeks of scrims, 7 regular season, and up to 3 playoff weeks depending on how your team does. Some esports, like Smash Ultimate may only have 2 weeks of playoffs if you are eliminated early.
WHAT DAY AND TIMES ARE THE MATCHES PLAYED?
Each esport is played on the same day and time for the full season. The day depends on which esport you play? But in any case it will either be on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday.
The match start time are either 430pm or 730pm. 430pm for the Alpha & Delta divisions and 730pm for the "Open" division. The Open division is for advanced players of that esport.
HOW DO PRACTICES AND MATCHES WORK
Both practices and matches take approximately 1 hour each. Practices are usually on the day your team plays their matches. Players are encouraged to arrive 15-30 minutes prior to their matches, if possibe, but in many cases practices end right before their match anyway.
CAN I PLAY MORE THAN ONE ESPORT?
Yes as long as there is no schedule conflict because some esports are played on the same day. We have a few players for example that play Fortnite(Mondays) and Smash Ultimate(Tuesdays). Discounts are also offered if you play more than one esport, check with management for details.
WHEN ARE YOUR SEASONS?
-Fall starts 9.18.23. Signups are available now on our website.
-Spring starts in February 2024.
-We run 8 weeks of camps during the Summer but no leagues.
DO I HAVE TO BE PRESENT TO PLAY?
We encourage in-house team play but we also realize it isn't always a possibility to do so. Nothing is as exciting as when all the teammates are playing next to each other. When you do play remote, your teammates and coach will be communicating with you through the Discord App.
CAN I CHOOSE MY TEAMATES?
Yes you can even bring in a whole team. For example you and two friends, 3 total, are the numbers needed for a Fortnite, Rocket League, or Apex Legend team.
HOW DO I KNOW HOW GOOD I AM AT A PARTICULAR ESPORT?
Many games have In-game rankings. Also their will be opportunities for one of coaches to do an 15 minute evalution at our facility or remote online.
BUT I'M A BEGINNER AND DON'T WANT TO GET CRUSHED EVERY GAME.
It's okay, many of our players are beginners and ourteams are formed with players of similar or equal game skills. The league also doesn't allow for really good players to "play down" in a lesser division. The really good players play in the Open division.
CAN I PLAY WITH MY OWN MOUSE/CONTROLLER/HEADPHONES?
HOW MUCH DOES THE LEAGUE COST AND HOW DO I SIGN UP?
$179 right now but will go up to $199 as the season start nears. You can go to aoeesports.com to sign up. We also offer a $20 referral discount for each player you get to join using your name. "No cap" on that...
