What is the path from registering to competing?
Short answer: Four steps. Register once, enter each OTS, qualify by flying one scheduled run per Trial on SFL servers, and compete if you finish in the top eight.
- Register. Create your SFL competitor account at pilots.the-sfl.com, then verify your email, Discord and DCS identity.
- Enter. When the League opens an OTS cycle, enter from your pilot home. When you click Enter, SFL presents the SFL Pilot Terms and Conditions, and you accept them.
- Qualify. Practice, then book and fly one qualification run for each Trial (SPEED, PRECISION and ACCURACY) on SFL servers during the published qualification window.
- Compete. The top eight in the Trials ranking advance to the Dogfight Phase, the live eight-competitor bracket.
