Sauerbraten has over 10 years of competitive history to its name. The list below contains results from nearly all of the various leagues run during that time, ordered chronologically.

PSL ran from 2007-2010, administrated and organized primarily by oo|shmutz. It was the first Sauerbraten tournament in history, and one of the longest running. PSL laid the groundwork for future leagues with the allvall qualifier format, best of three title matches, and, in the later stages, public polls to decide which maps were played.
SDMC was a series of tournaments run from mid 2010 to mid 2011 by the Dangerous Monkeys clan. While it had somewhat less pomp and circumstance than PSL or SWL, it was a huge success – well administered, with a wide variety of modes and a distinguished list of competitors.

Sauerbraten Day of Sobriety
Sauerbraten Day of Sobriety (SDoS) was a tournament organized by mefisto in late 2013. It originally planned to host multiple modes and events, but, due to a number of factors (mostly ddos) only managed one – Insta 1v1, won by {QS}ConMan after the later disqualifiaction of Apollon (Bounty).

An eCTF tourney and effic ladder hosted by Acuerta in 2014, aiming to provide much needed competition during the gap between major tournaments.
DKSC ran frequently from June 2014 to May 2015. It is remembered, among other things, for the 3rd Advent effic cup, which was and still is one of the most exciting effic tourneys of all time.

SSL was founded by swatllama and ran for all of 2015. It restored a level of consistent prestige to competitive Sauerbraten that hadn’t been seen since the closing of SWL in 2013.

note: raffael was convicted of triggerbot usage in tourneys from 2018-19, and stripped of all titles during that period. swatllama is not of the belief that he was cheating during SSL, and has therefore allowed those titles to stand.

SauerDuels
Sauer Duels ran for about 2 years, from October 2017 to December 2019, and was hosted by Frosty and Origin. Building on the lessons of the last decade, SauerDuels provided some of the best organized and highest quality competition that Sauerbraten has ever seen. It introduced a glicko2 rating system that delivered a level of nuance and insight previously unheard of in Sauer’s competitive ranking, as well as allowing for fairer, more results based seedings.

World Cup 2020 (Corona Cup)
In May of 2020, with the world in lock-down due to Covid-19, swatllama hosted Sauer’s 3rd World Cup event. 2020 saw the balance of power in Sauer shift somewhat from the last world cups, with USA winning the gold, Eastern Europe falling to second, and France coming in third, knocking Germany off the podium altogether.
Miscellaneous SVN Tourneys 2020
Between the end of Sauer Duels and the release of the new version of Sauerbraten, notas organized a number of informal events on the beta version of the game for the purpose of testing new mechanics, finding bugs, and playing new maps.
