Scout Your Next Roster in One Weekend.

Liquid Helix Recruiting Showcases bring high school esports athletes into one venue — evaluated live, in person. Attend at no cost. Leave with a recruiting binder.

Online scrims and ladder rankings only tell you part of the story. Liquid Helix Showcases put prospects in front of you in a controlled environment — where you can evaluate gameplay, communication, composure, and coachability in real time. No bracket noise. No prize pool drama. Just scouting.

See how players perform under pressure, respond to coaching, and communicate with teammates — skills you can’t measure from a VOD. 

Pre-vetted Prospects

Every player attending has opted into the recruiting process. They’re motivated, engaged, and interested in playing at the college level.

One Trip, Multiple Teams

Guaranteed matches across VALORANT, Overwatch, Rocket League, and Super Smash Bros. — one weekend replaces dozens of hours of online scouting or traveling to multiple locations.

Every coach receives the same binder at check-in — no tiers, no separate packages. Just what you need to start scouting the moment you sit down.

Sorted by player number to match the roster sheet, built for fast note-taking during matches — not a stat sheet to read, a surface to write on.

Every registered coach who attends a Liquid Helix Showcase receives online access to the complete player profiles from that event. Use the information to supplement your scouting notes, revisit prospects, and continue evaluating players after the final match.

Access the additional academic, recruiting, contact, and title-specific information that is not included on the Basic Player Stat Card. Everything is organized to help you add context to the notes you captured during the event.

Your Liquid Helix coach account provides access to the player data from every Showcase you attend. As you participate in additional events, those player profiles are added to the same account.

Search attending players by name, player number, high school, or game title to quickly locate the information most relevant to your recruiting process.

The first Liquid Helix Recruiting Showcase will be held on the Syracuse University campus in partnership with Syracuse University Esports. Syracuse will serve as the inaugural host partner for our Northeast Showcase.

“We’re excited to launch our first Liquid Helix Esports Recruiting Showcase at Syracuse University. Syracuse shares our commitment to creating meaningful opportunities for students, making its campus an ideal place to begin what we hope will become a nationwide series of recruiting showcases.” Cezar Camba, Co-Founder and Director of Coach Relations

No elimination brackets. No long wait times between matches. No prize pool theatrics. Every minute is built around giving you the time and access you need.

Every match — VALORANT, Overwatch, Rocket League, Smash — runs in one centralized competition hall. Move between titles freely.

Every registered team is guaranteed a minimum of three matches across the weekend. You see every prospect more than once.

Evaluation, Not Elimination

Showcases are not tournaments. No winners’ brackets — the format is built so you can scout players, not chase a finals match.

Direct Access

Meet players, parents, and high school coaches face to face before scholarship offers or roster spots ever go out.

No. College coaches and recruiting staff attend the inaugural Liquid Helix Showcase in each region at no cost, including the recruiting binder. Pricing may be introduced at future events in a given region.

A Liquid Helix Showcase is a recruiting event, not a tournament. There are no elimination brackets, no 1st/2nd/3rd placements, and no prize pools. The entire event is designed around giving coaches structured time to scout, evaluate, and connect with prospects.

VALORANT, Overwatch, Rocket League, and Super Smash Bros. (1v1). All four titles run in a single venue, simultaneously, so you can move between games freely.

We’re targeting approximately 30 college programs across DI, DII, DIII, and NJCAA per event. The Syracuse Showcase attending programs list will be announced September 2026, and updated when a new program commits to attending.

Yes. The Showcase format is designed for direct coach-to-player and coach-to-parent conversations. Many programs use Showcases as their initial in-person touchpoint before formal offers.

Schools can reserve a table in our exhibit hall, alongside other colleges and sponsors, for direct exposure to attending students and parents. Ask Cezar for exhibit hall details and availability.
