- "Elite" is also an adjective used to describe teams which have never been relegated from Elite level. For more information see Elite (teams).
Elite refers to the primary level of 4chan Cup competition. There are two Elite competitions in each annual cycle, the Summer Cup and Winter Cup. At the conclusion of the 2018 4chan Summer Cup there have been fifteen Elite tournaments, the first of which was the 2011 4chan Summer Cup.
The Elite level was at one time the only competition level in the 4chan Cup. With the Third Founding and a larger number of competing teams it came to be supplemented by the Babby level which has its tournaments in Spring and Autumn of each year.
Teams
Main article: All-time Elite Table
A total of 62 teams have competed at the Elite level since its inception. The last team to have appeared in every Elite cup was /mu/ before failing to promote from the 2017 4chan Autumn Babby Cup. All teams since the 2015 4chan Winter Cup have been relegated at some point.
Champions
Of the 62 teams in the cup, a total of 11 teams have been crowned elite cup champions, with 2 of them as two time champions. A third team was a two time champion, but controversy had stripped one of the titles.
Next event
The following 32 clubs will compete at the next scheduled Elite event, the 2019 4chan Winter Cup.
a: Founding member of the 4chan Cup and the Elite level
b: Later promoted to the Elite level in place of other teams failing to submit an export
c: Later promoted to the Elite level in place of other teams getting culled due to lack of sufficient board interest
Events
There have been fifteen events at Elite level, up to and including the 2018 Summer Cup. The first Elite cup was the 2011 Summer Cup which featured 16 teams competing in a double elimination bracket. The following event, the 2012 Winter Cup, took on the same format. The 2012 Summer Cup was the first Elite event to use a group stage and single elimination bracket knockout stage, a format which has remained to the present day.
