How The Ladder Challenge System Works

We like to keep things nice and simple here at the ESL, and the ladder epitomises this philosophy. You have two simple methods to find a match: select a time and date via the ladder matchmaker, or directly challenge your opponent via the ladder rankings page!



If you like the more automated approach, you can schedule matches for the next seven days via the match making tool, which can be easily located on the front page of the ladder, at





An example of the matchmaking schedule tool



On the matchmaker overview site you can see all entries for the next seven days, including your own. If you want to create additional entries simply click on "Create new match search" on the day you want to play. From here select the time you want to compete, and the threshhold for your entry to be automatically deleted.



You can create up to five entries for the next seven days and as soon as an entry is deleted or accepted you can create a new one. On the matchmaker overview site you can see your own entries as well and delete them directly.



To directly challenge a team, simply head on over to the ladder rankings page, find the team you want to challenge and click "challenge". From here, select when you want to play and wait for your opponent to accept or decline your challenge!
