In case you didn’t catch Evan’s post last week, I just wanted to remind everyone that PvP League Season One (including the Guild Challenger League) will end on January 26 at 00:00 UTC (4pm Pacific on Jan 25). There will be a one hour grace period after 4pm to allow any in-progress matches to complete and then the season will officially end.
UPDATE: Due to today’s server issues, we’re going to delay the delivery of Guild Challenger League rewards until after the January 26th release. Better safe than sorry.

Challenger Cup
For those of you interested in the Guild Challenger League and the Challenger Cup (the way you make it into Pro League), here’s some clarifications:
To keep their spots in Pro League, the three bottom ranking teams at the end of the Pro League season will need to compete in the Challenger Cup and earn first, second, or third place.
The bottom ranking teams in the Pro League will automatically earn the top 1, 2, and 3 seeds in the Cup.
The Challenger Cup is a 16 team double-elimination tournament.
Seeds 4-16 will be given to the top 13 teams on the Guild Challenger leaderboard.
Teams consisting of Pro League players on the Guild Challenger Leaderboard will be discounted and the next eligible team will be contacted for an invite.
All Pro League region/eligibility rules apply to the Challenger Cup.
Pro League Season 2 rules will be in effect for the Challenger Cup (no class stacking).

Thanks!
How many pro leaguers can be on a team before it is disqualified? one, two, any? also by what date do rosters have to be finalized for Challenger Cup?
Sup Grouch my guild has two teams that qualify for challenger cup, can we sell the roster of one to highest bidder? I highly doubt we can, but if I’m wrong pls correct me so I can make some gold. The Guild is Best Team North Africa.
That or give it to a deserving team. Though I’m still leaning towards making gold.

I’m fairly certain ArenaNet is just gonna look at the leaderboard by guild name and contact individual guilds that way, not individual teams within a guild. It wouldn’t make sense giving 2 invites to the same guild because they have 2 qualifying teams.

I not agree, why two teams with 5 different players
in the same guild should not have the right to compete in challenger ?
I think both teams can play in challenger if they deserve it.
It ultimately comes back to another poorly planned/designed event. The final details were announced right before the season was ending and you can’t tell in game where you stand for the cup which is also mixed in with pro-league teams because, that all makes sense…

The Challenger Cup will take place after the Season One Finals have concluded.
Can you guys give us an idea of what the roster rules are gonna be for guilds that have 2 teams that made it into the challenger cup? I’d really like to have these rules fleshed out sooner than later so people won’t be so up in the air about whether they’re staying in the pvp scene to join our 2nd team to play in the challenger cup.

So, last day of leauges my guild did a 3 man and got 24th place when season ended, do I get platinum Guild Challenger Reward since it starts at 1 and gold is 25?

also when do I get these rewards?
I think they were pretty clear about it: rank 1 is platinum, 2-25 is gold. You’ll get gold.
