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 2025 4chan Winter Cup there have been twenty-eight 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

A total of 70 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 2025 4chan Winter Cup have been relegated at some point, with /pw/ being the final holdout since their introduction and promotion from the 2021 4chan Autumn Babby Cup.

Champions

Of the 71 teams in the cup, a total of 23 teams have been crowned Elite cup champions. With /mlp/'s victory in the 2016 4chan Summer Cup, they became the first team to win 2 Elite cups, joined by /fit/ after the 2017 4chan Winter Cup and /u/ after the 2020 4chan Summer Cup. A fourth team was a two-time champion, but controversy had stripped one of the titles. After /mlp/'s victory in the 2025 4chan Winter Cup, they became the first team to win 3 Elite cups.

Events

There have been twenty-eight events at Elite level, including the 2021 4chan World Cup. The first Elite cup was the 2011 4chan Summer Cup, which featured 16 teams competing in a double elimination bracket. The following event, the 2012 4chan Winter Cup, took on the same format. The 2012 4chan Summer Cup was the first Elite event to use a group stage and single elimination bracket knockout stage, a format which remains to the present day.
