It was started again immediately after the dissolution of GIGA 2 and can therefore be seen as the successor. This channel is owned by ESL Gaming , the operator of the Electronic Sports League , which was acquired by the Modern Times Group in July 2015 .

ESL TV offers a free stream with a transfer rate of 350 Kbit / s. In contrast to the paid streams, this free stream has a lower image quality and can occasionally be overloaded.

Furthermore, two paid streams are offered. On the one hand the 700 kbit stream and on the other hand the very high quality 1400 kbit stream, in addition there is HD quality. Depending on the number of PDs (Premium Days), the ESL's virtual currency, you can pay by phone, PayPal , bank transfer and credit card .

Video on demand

A video-on-demand service is also offered, with which, for example, you can easily watch missed programs online, regardless of the current stream program. This service is also available for free users in a very small resolution. In the course of time, an archive with all broadcasts is created.

Watch2Gather

Watch2Gather is a new concept from ESL TV. It is a chat in which the moderator can provide the viewers with any information and polls take place during the broadcast.

program

The program is made up of live broadcasts of ESL e-sports events. There are several streams on twitch that are specifically geared towards a discipline or language and usually have a temporary airtime. In addition to the live broadcasts, current repetitions of games as well as so-called classic matches are shown. The English CS: GO and Dota 2 streams run continuously.
