SLTV StarSeries XI with $35,000
SLTV StarSeries season XI will have $27,000 in prizes along with an additional $8,000 for travel support, and it will feature a new format.
Only 9 days after the last season ended with fnatic defeating Natus Vincere, a new edition of SLTV StarSeries has been announced with a slightly increased prize purse and a new format with the LAN Finals scheduled for October 18th-19th at the usual venue, CyberArena in Kiev, Ukraine.
In total the prize purse will be $27,000, which is a $5,000 increase compared to season X, while the travel support remains the same at $2,000 per team.

Ninjas in Pyjamas return to SLTV StarSeries
The reigning champions fnatic have decided to opt out of this season, as did mousesports, while NiP will be back after missing out on the last one.
Last season's bottom four - Nostalgie, Berzerk, OnBots and USSR have been relegated to SLTV ProSeries, while Ukrainian A-Gaming and Russian squad oneshot have been promoted. Filling the last few places are Sam "RattlesnK" Gawn's new team The Lone Rangers, dAT and Copenhagen Wolves, while Mikail "Maikelele" Bill's new team Unwanted took the place of his old team ESG that finished last season in 7th place.
The new format will see the teams split into two groups instead of the usual big league, which means each team will have 7 matches in the regular season.
| Group A | Group B |
Natus Vincere |
NiP |
Virtus.pro |
HellRaisers |
Titan |
LDLC |
Copenhagen Wolves |
Epsilon |
OverGaming |
Unwanted |
ESC |
The Lone Rangers |
OneShot |
A-Gaming |
dAT |
myXMG |
The top placed team from each group will secure a direct spot at the LAN Finals, while teams placed 2nd-5th will battle for the other two spots via online playoffs - a double elimination bracket scheduled for September 27th-29th.
Teams in places 6th-8th in both groups will be relegated to ProSeries.
The following map pool will be used this season:

SLTV StarSeries XI prize distribution
1. $13,000 + $2,000 travel support
2. $7,000 + $2,000 travel support
3. $4,000 + $2,000 travel support
4. $3,000 + $2,000 travel support
Also worth noting is that due to SLTV's recent partnership with FACEIT, the matches of the two leagues will not clash, so StarSeries will also schedule matches for Fridays and Saturdays, unlike the usual practice in previous seasons when those days were avoided if possible.
