The St. Clair Saints A Duo of Nicolas “Ciriuhs” Ciri and Brett “Beauty” Graves are Collegiate Starleague Regular Season Champions. 241 teams from all across North America competed this season, 42 of which the Saints went up against each week in the North East 3 Conference.

The regular season took place over the course of four weeks with two matches per week. In each match, all 43 teams in the conference competed simultaneously. Despite the odds stacked against them, the Saints A Duo managed to never finish outside the top 3 and brought home one Victory Royale. Their strong performance throughout the season has set them up as the team to beat in the playoffs.

The Saints B Duo of Dawsyn “Swell” Lefebvre and Brayden “Intrinsic” Robert also competed in the North East 3 conference. While their consistency wasn’t quite as strong as the A Duo, they were able to take home two Victory Royales in the last week of competition to punch their ticket to the playoffs. Overall, they finished 16th in the regular season.

The playoffs were plagued with issues on December 7-8th and so the CSL has made the decision to postpone until the New Year. The Saints will look to make a statement in January and take home a share of the $25k prize pool.
