What is the CSL



Its simple just imagine the NCAA but for starcraft. With famous names like Sean Day 9 Plott, QXC, Spades and more being veterans of this league the CSL has grown from the weekend competive fun between two schools, to a year long battle royal. The Collegiate Starleague now features over 320 colleges across the US and Canada, who fought it out to get to the playoffs. Now four spots, one for each region are up for grabs, each earning a spot at the live grand finals being held at the University of Central Florida.
