The 5v5 Loopstation League Season 2 was an online international looping competition organized by Beatbox League.
Overview[]
Format[]
The event involves 8 teams of loopers battling each other in a Top 8 bracket. Each team consists of one captain and four members, for a total of 40 participants. The top 6 wildcard winners as well as the previous season's top 2 captains (Slether and Rime) were given the privilege of being a captain.
At the beginning of each round, a captain selects one of their members to perform. The other captain then chooses one of their own members to face off against that person. The team that chooses second has to go first in a regular ABAB format battle. At the end of each battle, the judges vote for one of the teams, granting that team 2 points. They also have the option to vote for "overtime", which simply grants both teams 1 point. For the next round, the other captain gets to choose first. The cycle keeps going until only the captains remain, who face off in a final battle.
Timeline[]
The event was announced on September 11, 2021 on the Swissbeatbox channel, and a wildcard competition opened the same day. Submissions closed on September 24, and participants were announced on October 2. Team drafting took place on October 9.
