LADDER RULES
Challenges
You can challenge 5 spots ahead of you
you can issue 2 challenge(s) at a time
each player receives one wildcard at the beginning of the season, which can be used to challenge anyone on the ladder. After playing 5 challenge matches, players receive an additional wildcard
if you are challenged, you have two days to either “accept” or “deny” challenge. Failure to do so will result in a “forfeit,” and the challenger will be granted the win.
you have 10 days upon accepting a challenge to play the match. If challenge is not played within 10 days, the challenge will expire. If you know you cannot play within 10 days, do not accept the challenge.
if you challenge and win, you will take their spot on the ladder, and they will be bumped down 1 spot
