After Echelon Arena failed before they launched, many of us thought Consolegaming would be the only place where the European competitive community could play on ladders. Think twice, PS3leaderboard.com are offering prizes worth over $400 on their ladders.
PS3leaderboard has existed from PS3 launch but never received the support they deserved. PS3L was at its highest point on cod3 but then it slowly died with only the US ladders being active. Over the past few years GB/CG has become the place to be for many competitive gamers although PS3L hope to make their mark on the EUeSports community starting with this great kick off ladder.
There will be three kind of ladders where you can win these prizes: A team ladder, a single ladder for the lone-wolfs, and a doubles ladder. The ladders are being sponsored by GamerSaloon.com and SplitFish Gameware.
Black Ops Team Ladder
Season 1: November 9 to January 16 Prizes: Winner: - $300.00 in cash payable via Paypal. - $80.00 GamerSaloon Cash Credits in total to use on their Cash Challenge System. Runner-Up: - $40.00 GamerSaloon Cash Credits in total to use on their Cash Challenge System.
Season 1: November 9 to January 16 Prizes: Winner: - SplitFish FRAGFX Shark controller - $40.00 GamerSaloon Cash Credits to use on their Cash Challenge System. - $50.00 PSN Store coupon. Runner-Up: - SplitFish FRAGFX Shark controller - $20.00 GamerSaloon Cash Credits to use on their Cash Challenge System.
When the team ladder is finished, the top8 teams will battle it out in a play-off bracket against each other to see who will take home the honour and the prizes.
I talked with PS3Leaderboards representative Alistair Pritchard.
You have been supporting the PS3 community for a long time now. Can we expect to see more great prizes for the EUeSports community?
'PS3L has had it's highs in the past and some may say it died down. However with the recent LAN hosted by EUeSports being such a success it was time for a brain storm on how we can follow it. So first of all plan of action was to attract the EU PS3 community back to the site so we can have that support behind us. Personally i think the prizes offered for the ladder alone are brilliant and if you are not willing to support it then you will not get anything back, it's logic'
EUeSports / Team Envied wishes PS3Leaderboard.com and all teams who are going to participate best of luck!
