ELEAGUE Street Fighter V Invitational, also known as ELEAGUE Season 3, is the third season of ELEAGUE. After two seasons with Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, the league announced that it will expand to fighting games with Street Fighter V. The season will run from March 27, 2017, to May 26, 2017, and will be broadcast on cable television on TBS and online on Twitch. The season will feature 32 players overall and 24 players in the main tournament from across the world to compete.^[1]

The third season of ELEAGUE started with Victor "Punk" Woodley defeating Bryant "Smug" Huggin 2–0 in a best of three. The official season began with Smug defeating Julio Fuentes 3–0 in a best of five series. The season concluded with Punk defeating Arman "Phenom" Hanjani 4–2 in a best of seven series to take home US$150,000 of the US$250,000 prize pool.

Format[]

ELEAGUE will invite thirty-two players from around the world to compete in the tournament. Sixteen of the players will be invited based on their 2016 Capcom Pro Tour results and the other sixteen will receive invites from Capcom. This stage will be the preliminaries. Players will be separated into four groups of eight. The top six players from each group will advance to the regular season. All matches will be best of three. This will run from March 27, 2017, to March 30, 2017.

Twenty-four players will play in the regular season. They will be divided into four groups of six. There will be two phases in the regular season. The top two players from the preliminaries will automatically advance to the second phase. The other four players will play in a group stage robin round. The third seed and the sixth seed will play each other and the fourth and fifth seeds will play each other in the initial matches. The two losers and the two winners will then play each other. The winner of the winner's map will move on to phase two and the loser of the loser's matches will be eliminated. The decider match between the two remaining players will determine which player moves to the second phase and which player gets eliminated. In phase two, the remaining four players will play in a single elimination, best of five bracket. The winners of the matches will move on to the playoffs.

Eight players remain as they head to the playoffs. The winners of the groups will be placed in the upper bracket and the runners-up of the groups will be placed in the lower bracket. Players will play in an eight-man double-elimination bracket, meaning a loss from a player in the upper bracket is still alive, but heads into the lower bracket. Once a player loses in the lower bracket, that player is eliminated from the tournament. The players will continue to play until a winner is decided. All matches will be best of five. The playoffs will all take place on May 26.^[2]^[3]^[4]
