As of yesterday, the league format for the CSL was locked in place.

The first season, according to the commissioner, will involve three /r/Civcraft citystates. Red Rock, Haven and Lio are to be represented.

However, one key variable remains; the salary cap.

In the CSL, owners play 50% of the Salary Cap to the league before the season, to be broken up after the CSL playoffs.

60% of the pot goes to the champion, 20% to second place, and 10% to third place. (leaving the remaining 10% for the CSL in case of contract disputes).

Original plans for the salary cap were to be about 30 diamonds (or, if the exchange rate is 32i/1d [which it’s expected to be], around 960i) but only time will tell what the owners decide.

Talks are ongoing between team owners and the league as of today.
