What Rift runs
Every layer of competitive gaming, in one platform.
Run brackets, manage teams, track matches, surface stats, and integrate streams — without the spreadsheet sprawl. Built for organisers who run repeat events and leagues that need to scale from local LAN to global championship.
Roster Management
Teams, players, and substitutes — handled
Track active rosters, ELO ratings, and head-to-head records. Manage substitutes, role assignments, and per-game line-ups. Players join teams via Discord-linked profiles.
Live Match Tracking
Live, upcoming, completed — one queue
Tabbed match feed with pulsing live indicators, score-input forms, and replay links on completed matches. Map and game-mode metadata feed straight into the analytics view.
Player Stats
K/D, win-rate, and tier badges
Per-player profile cards with game-specific stat schemas (K/D/A, headshot %, healing done — pick the metrics that matter). Bronze through Pro tier badges with rank-delta indicators.
Stream Hub
Twitch, YouTube, Kick — embedded
Pull live streams onto the platform with viewer-count badges and pulsing live indicators. Schedule upcoming streams and archive VODs to a searchable grid keyed by tournament and team.
What organisers say
From local LAN to championship circuit.
“We ran our entire 32-team Spring Cup off Rift and didn't open a single spreadsheet. The bracket share-link kept teams informed in real time and the stream embeds meant our caster team could pull from one source.”
Yuki Tanaka
Operations Lead · Spring Cup Open
“Rift's roster management is the first one I've used that actually understands substitutes and role-locks per game. Saved us hours every match week.”
Marcus “Vortex” Reid
Owner · Apex Riders
“I climbed three tiers in six weeks and the rank-delta visualisation kept me honest about which queues were actually contributing — not the ones I wanted to be.”
Alex “Cypher” Rivera
Pro Player · Diamond II
“Running a league means juggling brackets, schedules, and disputes across 16 organisations. Rift gave me one source of truth and our commissioners stopped DMing each other at 2am.”
Sarah Okafor
Commissioner · Zenith League

FAQ
Common questions
Everything organisers, players, and league commissioners ask before signing up.
Rift is game-agnostic — bracket trees, scoring, and stats schemas are configurable per tournament, so you can run anything from FPS shooters and MOBAs to fighting games, racing sims, and trading-card formats. Per-game stat templates ship for the most common formats and you can author custom ones.
Tournament organisers (or appointed referees) can input scores directly from the match page. Brackets update in real time, the public share link reflects the new state without a refresh, and any stream embed continues uninterrupted. Disputed results can be flagged for commissioner review.
Yes. Drop a stream URL onto a match or organiser channel and Rift embeds the live player with a viewer-count badge and pulsing live indicator. VODs are archived to a searchable grid keyed by tournament and team. We do not re-broadcast or proxy streams — embeds use the platform's official iframe.
Yes — Discord is the default OAuth provider, alongside Twitch, Google, and email/password. Linked Discord profiles auto-populate gamertag and avatar, and team owners can invite players directly via Discord username.
Community ships with 1 active tournament, up to 16 players, single-elim brackets, Discord-linked profiles, and a public leaderboard — enough to run scrim nights and local LANs indefinitely. No credit card required.
Pro League plans include API access, webhooks, and one-click CSV / JSON export of bracket state, match history, and player stats. Organiser plans support CSV export of completed tournaments.
Each match has a dispute button that pings the assigned commissioner with the match snapshot, score history, and any uploaded screenshot evidence. Commissioners can roll back scores, disqualify a team, or escalate — all changes are logged in an immutable audit trail.
Yes. Verified student esports clubs and registered amateur leagues (e.g. national federations, scholastic leagues) can apply for our Grassroots Programme for 50% off Organiser pricing. Reach out via the contact form with your league details.
