High-attention live watch-time from the English broadcast audience.
Your brand.
69,000 hours watched.
One legendary league.
BSL23 connects sponsors with a mature, loyal StarCraft: Remastered audience across live broadcast, VODs, shorts, Facebook reach, clean feed co-streams and a possible BSL LAN Party.
Give Brood War its second shine.
A classic tournament
in a classic game.
StarCraft is one of the most important competitive games ever made. A real classic.
It shaped the esports we know today — pro leagues, broadcast storytelling, iconic rivalries. BSL puts a partner inside that legacy while reaching an active, mature and global audience right now.
Higher attention quality
Viewers know the game. They watch for the decisions, the storylines and the rivalries.
Commercially mature
Over 90% of the BSL audience is 30–50 years old: working adults with real spending power.
Community gratitude
This community remembers who backs it. Sponsors get named, thanked and talked about long after the season ends.
BSL is already part of Brood War history.
Founded in 2013 by Dawid “ZZZero” Paździor, BSL has grown from community passion into one of the most important StarCraft: Remastered circuits outside Korea.
Plus community-backed prize pools across every season since 2013.
Every platform plays a different role.
Twitch brings live attention. YouTube keeps the tournament discoverable. Facebook adds broad organic reach across different markets.
Replay and highlight reach that continues long after the stream ends.
Large organic video reach across 84+ countries — with 0 paid views.

Peru
What this means for a partner: live viewership concentrated in North America and Europe, plus a large, highly active Latin American social audience. A brand can reach either market — or use one season to reach both.
ProLeague is BSL.
One flagship league carries the season: the strongest non-Korean players, the largest prize pool and most of the broadcast hours. Everything else is depth built underneath it.
ProLeague
The main event of every BSL season. Twenty-four to thirty-two of the best non-Korean players in the world, the largest prize pool of the season and twenty official broadcasts. When people say BSL, this is the league they mean.
Four leagues underneath.
Every league runs 16 players. The top four earn a seed into the league above for the next season, so the whole structure moves every year and a player can climb from ChoboLeague to ProLeague over consecutive seasons.
Non-Korean World Championship
The top four players from ProLeague face the top four players from China — the international match-up that closes the season.
Twenty players are already seeded.
Top 4 of ProLeague, Season 22 — they enter next season directly at the RO16 stage.
Top 4 of GosuLeague Tier 1, Season 22.
Top 4 of HasuLeague Tier 1.
Top 4 of HasuLeague Tier 2.
Top 4 of ChoboLeague Tier 1.
Four leagues underneath.
Every league runs 16 players. The top four earn a seed into the league above for the next season, so the whole structure moves every year and a player can climb from ChoboLeague all the way to ProLeague over consecutive seasons.
Non-Korean World Championship
The top four players from ProLeague face the top four players from China — the international match-up that closes the season.
The brand travels further.
GosuLeague, both HasuLeague tiers and ChoboLeague are open for the community to cast, and every community caster broadcasts using official BSL overlays — so season branding travels into their streams as well, in front of audiences BSL does not broadcast to directly, at no extra production cost.

The community proved demand.
A partner scales it.
40 supporters put €4,538 behind BSL23 before a single match was played. That covers the base season. A partner is what turns it into a bigger prize pool, stronger production and wider reach — and takes the headline position while doing it.
The open €3,522 is what turns this from a stream into a stage.
Where the €8,060 season budget goes
One brand.
One season.
A lasting impact.
BSL offers a rare combination: a classic esport, a mature audience, multi-platform reach and a community that shows up because it genuinely cares. If that fits what you are looking for, I would like to build this season with you.
