Great question! DotA 2 has a new form of skill rating for each player called Medal Tiers, which goes from Herald to Divine 5. The "Trench" is anywhere around Archon 5, which translates to roughly anyone below 3360 MMR. It's called a trench because once players fall in, it's a very long and treacherous climb to get out, filled with feeders, flamers, and some of DotA 2's worst players. The Trench League is a tournament meant only for those players.

Registration is super easy and only takes a few steps!

• Start by logging in with your Steam account (top right corner)
• Once you have logged in you can either Create a new team or join an existing team. NO money is due at time of team creation.
• Next either wait until your team join request is accepted by the team captain, or tell your friends to visit the site and join your newly created team
• Finally, once Season 3 begins you will be seeded into a group of teams and schedule matches against them using this site

The Trench League is an ever growing community of gamers, both low and high MMR. If you want to learn more, talk with other players in the league, recruit team members, be recruited, or even help out with the league, then you should check out our Discord! We are looking for more admins, casters, developers, and sponsors, so come on over and find one of the admins if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you here!
