For the second time in school history, Butler Esports is headed to a live competition!

Next weekend, Butler Overwatch Blue will make the trip from Indianapolis to South Bend, Indiana, to compete at Bendix Arena in the Collegiate Esports National Championship (CENC) Midwest Region Invitational, from October 8-10, 2021.

The CENC Invitational will pit 8 Midwest-region collegiate teams against each other in both Overwatch and Rocket League as they battle it out for $5000 in scholarship prizing and the chance to compete in the 2022 CENC national-level LAN tournament, held in April of next year.  Regional opponents will include Ball State University, Bethel University, the University of Cincinnati, and Illinois Wesleyan University.

Overwatch competition will begin at approximately 2pm ET on Saturday 10/9 and conclude on Sunday.  Matches will be live-streamed, and we’ll be sure to keep you informed about how to cheer on your Bulldogs!  Spectator tickets to Bendix Arena are $10 and may be purchased online or at the door.
