January 3, 2019/in Featured, OSC Tournaments/by Eddie

Getting esports athletes and casual gamers to compete in what is commonly acknowledged as one of the hardest esports titles to play competitively, can be a challenging task! Nevertheless, in 2018 we saw more tournaments, rewards, awareness and prestige built around the OSC World Rankings, and as a result, more players enter the fray of competitive/professional Starcraft events than ever before, culminating in another record breaking year! A credit to the collective effort of all OSC League Partners, staff, players, supporters and the community at large!

A quick look at some 2018 numbers:

The League saw a yearly participation increase of 24.6% on 2017!

315* players directly won $’s from tournaments and competitions!
110* OSC $ Bounties were claimed, for a total of $4005!
