Announcing: The Streamer Battle League!
For some time now, armies of chess players have donned their most powerful openings, and rushed into matches-- often dubbed "sub battles"- to represent their favorite streamers and twitch channels. Now, 8 channels are taking this practice to a new level with an organized all-play-all league, dubbed the "Streamer Battle League."
SEASON 1 PARTICIPANTS
- STL Chess Club (Chess.com Group) (Twitch)

Over seven weeks from October 24th to December 12th, these channels will play out a round-robin of matches. Each match will be contested in 3 different divisions: U1400, 1400-1799, & 1800+, with players playing two 15+5 games against their opposing board.
The channels will be agreeing upon a time to play within the week, so you will have to follow them to keep up with the matches of your favorites. The most common time to find these matches will be Saturdays between 10 AM - 2PM Pacific.
