Overview[edit]

The Coach Pupil League Season 4 is a follow-up tournament to CPL season 3 which was ran in 2018 by Pisan, lazersnipe and awerti.

CPL S4 is organized by lazersnipe, and awerti with help from many others. It is a unique league designed to help the newer and lower skilled players of Broodwar community improve in a competitive team league format. They can play and improve alongside fellow players of their own skill level with the guidance of experienced coaches.

Players in teams are split in three tiers: 1, 2 and 3, based on their skill. Coaches will be responsible for helping their players improve at the game and prepare for their scheduled matches. Matches between teams will pit players against players within their tier for a fair competition across three skill divisions. Players who significantly increase their skill level during the CPL season, will be moved up to a higher tier.
