Tradeit League FE Masters, A Female Esports Initiative

Next week, between July 19 – 21, the fourth edition of Tradeit League FE Masters will be played.

The first three editions have been a much bigger success than we anticipated, and in this summary, you will find out why.

What Is Tradeit League FE Masters

This CS2 series is an attempt by Tradeit and its partners to promote female Counter-Strike. The beginnings of such projects tend to be humble, but our long-term goals are quite epic. Already, the fourth edition of the tournament has a total prize pool almost 10 times bigger than the first.

Currently, Tradeit League FE Masters editions happen quite frequently and are attended by 16 – 24 teams. With four tournaments in the first seven months of 2024 and likely several more until the end of the year, the series is rapidly growing and plenty of fans have already shown their interest in watching it.

As the number of participants, the prize pools, and the viewership numbers increase, the competitive format evolves to provide as much entertainment as possible.

Tradeit League FE Masters #1

This was the first edition of the tournament and its prize pool was not very impressive: £500 or around $640. However, 16 teams decided to compete, many of which are quite famous: NAVI Javelins, NIP Impact, BIG Equipa, etc.

Tradeit League FE Masters #2

For the second edition, we already had a sponsor. Chips.gg decided to join and as a result, the prize pool was increased to $1500 (cash) plus an additional $1300 in CS2 skins. Once again, 16 teams participated.

Tradeit League FE Masters #3

For the third edition, the prize pool was $2800 (cash) plus $2150 in skins. The number of participants stayed the same and the event lasted just two days.

Tradeit League FE Masters #4

This upcoming edition of Tradeit League FE Masters will feature 24 teams and will offer even better prizes: $4000 (cash) plus $1250 in CS2 skins. This time, we have a second sponsor: Elite Klan, a professional gaming and esports community founded by @walleDA1337.
