SSAS Beastmaster: The Darkside's League

SSAS Beastmaster: The Darkside's League is the upcoming second season of SSAS's spin-off series, Beastmaster.

Development
Since the beginning of SSAS Trials 3, there have been plans to develop a second season of SSAS Beastmaster. However, the project was halted due to the host's studying purposes. On May 27, 2021, during the time that the whole SSAS series have been resumed, the host have already confirmed that the second season of SSAS Beastmaster will have a "League" concept, a slightly different in terms of show's background compared to the previous season.

Applications have been opened since May 5, 2021 through the Discord server under an unnamed spin-off show, and later expanded the day the title has been revealed. On May 25, 2021, the title was revealed as SSAS Beastmaster: The Darkside's League, and was confirmed to be a direct sequel to the previous season.

Auditions
All competing competitors are divided into several heats according to their background or profile. Competitors must run a 15-obstacle course, combining all 3 qualifying levels from SSAS Beastmaster. If they fail once, they are given an extra life they can use to try again from the latest checkpoint throughout the course, but the time will reset to zero during the extra life and adds up with the first run when the run has ended, while the final result depends on which run is further. Should the competitor choose not to use it, however, the extra life is then forfeited and cannot be used later.

Each heat had varied number of competitors, and only the top 10 competitors each heat will advance to the group stage. These top 10 competitors would later assigned to one same group.

Other than the auditions held during this season, there are also external auditions held in regular SSAS tournaments, starting on SSAS 14. In each regular tournament, only the top 10 male and top 2 female competitors would advance to the Group Stage of this season.
