For those of you interested in participating in Season 7 of ESEA's TF2 league, the deadline for team registrations is tonight at midnight EST. Teams that want to play are required to have seven people on their rosters and paid for by tonight's deadline.
Currently the ESEA Open division stands with 17 teams readied up and paid for, with an additional 20 or so teams signed up but not fully paid for. Intermediate, on the other hand, has a total of 23 teams currently registered, with 5 readied up.
It's looking like whether or not this seventh season of ESEA happens or not is going to come down to a bit of a buzzer beater. Hopefully enough teams can get it together by midnight to make the season a success.

It's laughable to make such a proposition.
It would suck to be that one team.
You need 7 yo be garunteed a spot, however, if you have 6 you will be placed in the league in less there are an uneven number of teams, in that case 1 team will not be put into the league.
inb4 people cry about how they get their feelings hurt on gotfrag…oh wait. i'd rather go there and listen to people discuss things that aren't making them up or have no idea what they are talking about
So I should read a forum filled with trolls rather than trusting an email that comes directly from ESEA, the league in question?
Your logic is idiotic.
Whether or not you actually need seven, that is the email ESEA sent out. If you really only need six, ESEA needs to officially come out and say it, not have one of their guys post occasionally in gotfrag threads only ten percent of the competitive community actually cares enough to read.
protip: read gotfrag cuz people there actually know what they are talking about
In any case, I doubt either will happen to much to have it even be a blip on the radar.
According to ESEA, it's seven for TF2 teams.
Direct quote from an email ESEA sent out a week ago to teams that weren't paid up:
"This means that for CS / CSS you MUST have 6 players' entry fees PAID by MONDAY and 7 if you are on a TF2 team (we strongly recommend a backup). You can add or remove players throughout the season, but if you do not have 6 (7 for TF2) paid then your team will NOT be placed into the league."
pro-tip having 6 people paid counts
