How it works

Many players. Many games. One champion.

A CGL tournament is a series of original games. Each round is a new challenge, players are eliminated along the way, and one competitor is left at the end.

Tournament flow

From entry to champion

  1. 1

    Register & Enter

    Sign up for an upcoming tournament and pay the cash entry fee. The entry fees fund the prize money, and they mean everyone in the field is there to compete.

  2. 2

    Learn the Round

    Each round we explain a new original game. The rules are simple on purpose, so no one starts ahead just because they've played that game before.

  3. 3

    Compete

    Play the round. Depending on the game, you might need speed, a sharp strategy, precise aim, fast decisions, or a steady hand under pressure.

  4. 4

    Survive Elimination

    Players are eliminated after each round and the field gets smaller. The next round is a different game that tests different skills.

  5. Last One Standing

    The rounds continue until one competitor is left. Top finishers win prize money based on how they performed across the whole tournament.

What gets tested

Six skills. No specialists.

Every game rewards a different combination of these skills. You don't win CGL by being great at one of them. You win by being ready for all of them.

Athleticism

Speed, strength, agility, and endurance.

Strategy

Planning, reading opponents, and knowing when to take a risk.

Coordination

Timing, balance, and hand-eye control.

Decision-Making

Making the right call fast, with incomplete information.

Accuracy

Precision and consistency when it counts.

Composure

Keeping your nerve as the field shrinks and the stakes go up.

Entry & prizes

Real stakes, earned rewards

Every CGL tournament has a cash entry fee, and prize money goes to the top finishers based on their performance across the tournament.

  • We announce the entry fee and prize structure for each event before registration opens.
  • Where you finish depends on how you play, not on luck.
  • Eligibility requirements and official rules apply to every event.
