E-League represents an esports competition and Australian TV series that debuted in January 2018 through a collaboration between Fox Sports and Twitch. At present, the tournament is exclusively streamed on Twitch via the official E-League channel.

Competition structure and regulations

In E-League, each team is composed of two players, one assigned to each division. For the 2024 season, there are five scheduled regular "matchdays," where matches are conducted as best-of-one encounters throughout all stages, including playoffs and the final. The leading eight participants from the primary division qualify for the playoffs, while the lowest four compete against the top four from the secondary "Challenger" division in a stage called the "Gauntlet." The two highest-ranked Gauntlet competitors then advance, forming a playoff roster of ten players.

The playoff phase follows a double-elimination system to determine four finalists who will vie for two positions in the grand final. The championship match is typically a single game unless a bracket reset is necessary. The victor receives a monetary reward and secures a spot in the EA SPORTS FC Pro World Championships.
