This year, the annual HSEL Nationals will be taking things up a notch with its very first-ever live National LAN event. Not only is this the High School Esports League’s first live Nationals, but it’s shaping up to be the largest high school esports event.
What Titles can we Expect for High School Esports
This exciting new chapter in High School Esports will feature three major titles - Brawlhalla, Rocket League, and Valorant - played out in an in-person LAN experience in Kansas City, Missouri. Lets game esports arena will be hosting the tournament.
Unfortunately for anyone in the league playing a game not in the big three, the competitive experience will be from the comfort of your own setup. Try not to take out frustrations on the TOs and moderators. I’m talking to you, R6 players.
