General Info
So by now many SC2 players have seen or played Zealot Hockey from being on the in-game arcade spotlight or through the different casters that have casted the game such as the official Blizzard Arcade Spotlight or Carbot Animations Zealot Hockey videos.
There is also a highly competitive Zealot Hockey scene, with over 150 league players playing on 8 franchises in the aptly named Zealot Hockey League (ZHL). ZHL has been running for over a year and is now entering into the playoffs of it's 4th season. Each franchise has 8 pro teams along with 8 corresponding 'Probe League' farm teams to help newer players develop and compete against similarly skilled players.
