@AlgsLover54934 We should have the Split 1 Pro League microsite released mid next week. Will include confirmed Pro League teams and full broadcast schedule for all regions.
English
@chris_pipher Although I know it has been a long time since this post was made, I still want to ask when algs.ea will update Year 6-related content, such as the first batch of teams from each division that will receive direct invitations😭
English
Year 5 Championship wrapped — thank you to ALGS fans and the City of Sapporo for making it special!
Year 6 is right around the corner, but for now, if you competed in or watched the #ALGS this year, my team would love to hear what worked, what didn’t, and what we should improve?

Every play, every down, every game.
It all leads to this moment.
The MCS26 Madden Bowl is HERE 🔥
English
@Kouvaau Thanks for the feedback Kouva. Can you help us out by providing a little bit more about the challenges you had with FACEIT Watch during the Championship?
English
@chris_pipher Can you get a better solution than FACEIT for the big events.
It really impacts so much of your audience

English
@UnkleCliffy Thanks man. Love what you guys are doing with the RLCS as well!
English
@chris_pipher Congrats and sympathetic on how important the roadmap is for players!
English
For the first time in my five years working on the ALGS, we’ve finally been able to announce all three LAN dates and locations as part of our full-year #ALGS Year 6 program announcement.
Anyone who’s worked behind the scenes in esports knows how difficult that is to pull off!

🚨 OFFICIAL: Our #ALGS Year 6 Schedule!
English
@BM_ROG Thanks Bart! In Year 6, for the Split 1 and Split 2 Playoffs, we won’t play any matches simultaneously, but for the Championship we’re currently planning to again utilize a secondary stage on the first day. For those matches we’ll have the B Stream and watch parties cover.
English
@chris_pipher Great job. Would be great to have the matches not at the same time but I know that’s probably not realistic during group stages.
Or since you have a bunch of casters do both and stream both?
Need wethepeople back.
English
@AlgsLover54934 I think we’re relatively happy with the weighting of Championship Points right now.
Keep in mind that those that do well enough in the Pro League splits to qualify for the Playoffs also have the opportunity to earn a bunch of more points!
English
@chris_pipher Additionally, would there be any consideration to increase reward points in PL? I believe the current difficulty of obtaining reward points is too high.
And, is there consideration to also use the competition customized version in PL?
English
@AlgsLover54934 We polled the Pro League players before Champs and they preferred to play Olympus over Broken Moon by a relatively low margin, so you never know.
For now though we’ll start with Broken Moon removed from the ALGS map pool in Year 6.
English
@chris_pipher Perhaps the last question, will Broken Moon return？Thank you for your efforts and answers!
English
@Ozie_apex I liked that too! Will pass on to our broadcast folks and see what’s possible.
English
@chris_pipher Small thing but watching ewc and a screen popping up with all three players reactions to dying before it turns onto the eliminated screen was hilarious and I kinda missed it when watching champs.
English
@TroubbleGum For the Split 2 Playoffs and ALGS travel in general, nothing has changed on our end. We still provide two rooms, each with two beds, for each qualified team.
For the Split 1 Playoffs at EWC, EWC provides an even larger number of hotel rooms per team.
English
@chris_pipher What I immediately read was a downgrade from not covering travel for coaches to now also only providing 3 single rooms for split 1 and 2 playoffs instead of 2 double rooms.
I get why single rooms may be required in Saudi, but please consider coaches in further iterations. ty 🙏
English
@AlgsLover54934 Definitely agree with some of your assessments.
As you say, we've returned to a format in Year 6 where the Split 2 Pro League leads into the Split 2 Playoffs, a major global LAN, so hopefully that helps with the second half of the program year.
English
@chris_pipher about y5,I think the excessively long off-season ruined everything, and the open tournament setup didn't yield significant results either; many teams lacked sufficient motivation to compete in Split 2 PL... Fortunately, most issues have been resolved in Year 6.
English
@itsFreebs It would probably also be good for me to share a little bit about why that second gap exists in the first place!

@_Bryan_A_ Thanks Bryan! We do our best to minimize gaps in the year, but for Champs, we aim to leave ~12–14 weeks between qualification and the event to ensure we can secure JP player visas. It’s working so far, as we’ve had a 100% visa success rate for Champs over the last two years.
English
@itsFreebs Good point. We acknowledge the frustration with the gaps.
Between now and the Split 1 Playoffs at EWC, we have the Online Open and Split 1 of Pro League.
For the gap between Split 2 Playoffs and Champs, we're looking to fill with something, but can't share the plan just yet😉

@chris_pipher As a viewer, it's clear that you guys are listening and doing everything you can to improve ALGS. Faceit works now, production is good, etc.
The only complaint from me is the long breaks between LANs but you guys probably have little control over that.
English
@AlgsLover54934 Yes, it refers to the Championship Points earned at the Split 1 Playoffs; we probably should have made that clearer!
English
@chris_pipher By the way, I would like to know whether the "Points" in the formula "tᵣ = 40 × (regional Split 1 Playoffs points ÷ total Split 1 Playoffs points)" refers to Champions Points or something else
