    What is the Wilhelm eHockey Tour?

    Would your friend group make the best NHL esports squad around? SportsGamer presents a ground-breaking competitive amateur tournament in the form of the Wilhelm eHockey Tour!

    The Wilhelm eHockey Tour starts in mid-April and is aimed at casual players in the Finnish market. All you need is a team with 2-4 players, access to NHL 22 on PlayStation 4 and a stable internet connection to have a chance at glory and the largest slice of the 10 000 € prize pool. We’ll tour all the biggest hockey towns in Finland virtually in order to determine the inaugural Wilhelm eHockey Tour Champion.

    Head over to the Wilhelm eHockey Tour site for all the information in Finnish.

    The teams have been divided into three groups and the Tampere city tournament will be played in two stages, the group stage and the playoffs. Every team is guaranteed at least five games (the group stage), after which the top two will continue directly to the playoffs. The best team in 3rd place (based on PPG) will gain a direct playoff spot, whereas the next two teams in 3rd place will battle it out for the final playoff spot in a BO1 game. This will leave us with eight teams in total in the playoffs.

    See the full groups over at the league page - here.

    In the playoffs, the eight teams will be seeded based on PPG for each round and play a BO1 to advance. The top 3 teams will gain a direct spot into the TOP 32-stage of the entire Wilhelm eHockey Tour, whereas all other teams gain ranking points for participation. Ranking points add up throughout the eHockey Tour and will grant access to the TOP 32-stage for the top five teams without a top 3 city tournament finish.

    So, you'll have two ways to gain access to the TOP 32-stage:

    • Reach the top 3 in a city tournament
    • Rack up ranking points throughout the eHockey Tour in several city tournaments

    In terms of how the ranking system works, basically, the higher you finish, the higher you score.
    1st 200p
    2nd 150p
    3rd 125p
    4th 100p
    5th-8th 75p
    9th --> 50p

    The highest ranking teams will also receive awesome product prizes from our great sponsors!

    Let the action begin and we'll follow along to see who will be the next teams to secure a spot at the TOP 32-stage.
