Guild Wars 2

Good Morning Tier 6, 7, and 8!

Myself and some guilds from across the bottom tier servers have created a list to facilitate easier GvG match-making during the week, occasional tournament events (more on that below), and even scrims with higher tiers via EotM. If GvG is something your guild currently does, is interested in trying, or even would just want to spectate, please get in touch with us (10v10 format and above)! We’re also looking for motivated individuals to join us behind the scenes to organize, put on events, record, commentate, publicize, etc.!

Many guilds have already registered their contact info on our community spreadsheet and used that info to schedule GvGs and scrims. If you or your guild would like to get involved – simply request access to the linked spreadsheet , comment below, or message me privately in-game (adrielle.2109) and I’ll set you up. (As a side note, we do ask that the guilds who are already registered please make sure you keep the contacts up-to-date and provide as much information about your upcoming GvGs as possible.)

Now, I believe we’re finally ready to gauge the interest in holding a Bottom-feeder League Spring GvG Invitational – a bracket style tournament event allowing same-server guilds to fight each other, determine a winner, and then send finalists to fight cross-server and compete for The Best in Bronze title. The details so far:

Week of April 18th through 24th, 2015 – Same server guilds will compete 10v10 in a private PvP arena (if you do not have access to your own, one will be provided) to determine a “Server Finalist”. Rounds will be best 2 out of 3.

Weeks of April 25th through May 8th, 2015 – “Server Finalists” will compete against each other in either Obsidian Sanctum or Edge of the Mists depending on matchup and Eotm color to determine “The Best in Bronze”. Rounds will be best 2 out of 3. 10v10 or 15v15 to be decided upon by the particular guilds fighting.

More details will be provided upon confirmation that there is enough interest to organize it. Tournament is eligible to all servers in “Bronze Tier” at the time of tournament. So, if this sounds like something you’d be interested in attending, participating in, donating prizes, streaming, commentating, publicizing, or just generally being involved with – please get in contact with us by replying here or in-game (adrielle.2109) or (adrielle.4307)

DEADLINE TO EXPRESS YOUR GUILD’S INTEREST IS APRIL 13th, AS THAT IS WHEN I WILL START MAKING THE BRACKETS.

Hoping to hear from some of you so that we may continue to build a respectable and thriving GvG community here on the lower tiers!

Sincerely,
<3 Zeeb Rah

Sounds Interesting, [Wisp] may want to join in from GoM to spectate. Please PM me or send me mail to Mexamese.5163. I’ll send you mail adrielle.

Why is rank 16 not eligable?

We are limiting the Bottom-feeder League Spring GvG Invitational to Bronze tier only – meaning servers ranked 17th – 24th

GoM will most likely become ineligable next week.

Im pretty sure 16th is bronze, It is within the tiers you mentioned. Just because of score disparity, it doesnt make them silver if they cant win above that bracket, but do win in that bracket…

They are trying to exlude one specific server with out being obvious.

Thanks, I will see what happens, kind of odd not to have 16 in if it is still bronze :/. But oh well, we might just have to sit this one out then, sorry for anyone that was thinking of GvG vs Wisp.

Bronze is tier 6+7+8
Tier 8: 24+23+22
Tier 7: 21+20+19
Tier 6: 18+17+16

9 servers total.

A fair point. I’ve added 16th since there was so much QQ.

No need to sit out. We’d love to set something up with Wisp. If you could please either request access to the spreadsheet like I mentioned in my original post, or contact me privately with your e-mail so that I can grant you editing access.

Also, are there other GvG guilds in GoM? I haven’t heard from any of them.

Only a few more days to contact me about entering the tournament! So far, the guilds representing Bronze Tier are:

Phoenix Rises From the Ashes [Phnx] – Devona’s Rest

Wrecking [Krew] – Devona’s Rest

Flames of Courage [FoC] – Eredon Terrace

The Chaos City Saints [CCS] – Ferguson’s Crossing

Bad Acid Trip [BAT] – Anvil Rock

Spectral Legion [SL] – Sanctum of Rall

Enigmatic Warfare [Jynx] – Borlis Pass

Hells Kitchen [HK] – Borlis Pass

No Limit [NoL] – Gate of Madness

Welp. Since none of the guilds that are participating in the tournament are particularly thrilled about the PvP aspect of it, we’ve decided to remove the “Server Finalist” part of the tournament. What this means, is that same-server guilds will NOT be matched against each other in the first round, and hopefully will be eliminated before needing to fight each other in later rounds. With that said – I hope that this change encourages other guilds to join since all of the fights will be taking place in either OS or EotM. Currently we have three more spots to fill.

Reminder of deadline to register – Monday April 13th

Reminder of tournament meeting in teamspeak- Thursday April 16th @ 7:00pm PST / 10:00pm EST (We will be using a private TS server so check the spreadsheet for address)
