Western Pro League
While we are a news website first and foremost, that hasn't stopped us from extending our services even further to the community. We proudly took on the task of becoming the West Coast's hub leaders for FACEIT's revamped FPL system.
In our first season of Western Pro League we were able to give our 350+ subscribers the opportunity to qualify for FPL-C, payout $1,000 in cash prizes, and offer a platform for lesser known talent to shine.
As our hub continues to grow, so do our offerings to our subscribers. The second season of WPL is already in full-swing, with an increased prize pool of $1,500.
Dust2.us Masters
We have now hosted two Dust2.us Masters online tournaments, the latest of which wrapped up this past weekend after the MDL mix of Gorilla Gang took down Swole Patrol in the finals. The stream garnered over 110,000 views with a max concurrent viewership of nearly 4,500 users.
Our Masters events have been star-studded winner-take-all brawls among top North American MDL and EPL teams. Between the two events we have paid out $3,000 in prize money, with many more planned for the future.
We truly love what we do and can't thank our loyal readers enough for their continued support. Here's to 1,000 more!
