Guild Wars 2

Hi I was just wondering, are we allowed to use already owned team names for example: Team Curse for a guild name? Or is it not allowed?

If you are just using the name I wouldn’t see any reason why TO’s would disallow it especially with the specific example you gave. If you are using the real brand’s logos along with the name however then TO’s will more than likely frown upon your actions.

When/if the real organization did come into play that is where you would run into issues especially if you played said team in a tournament but at the moment no third party organization has a sponsored team in this game :P

I have seen multiple people with the same guild name as me and are not part of the guild I am in. It shouldn’t be an issue. Your either the ‘Curse’ playing Pvp or just doing your thing. However representing your guild and recruiting players in way that is deceitful, or worse asking new recruits to pay an admittance fee when you know you’re not actually the higher rank guild could/should be construed as scamming. As long as you make it evidently clear you share a name sake and are not the ToL team when recruiting you should be fine.

Why would you do that? Why would you pick another teams name?

I don’t mean the current guild names in the game, but other the game for example esports teams from LoL or CS.
