Attention:Rule Update Ratified by the Ladder CouncilA majority vote has been taken by the Ladder Council with the total tallied votes of 4 to 1 in favor of the following rule change:1. Only the top three ranks must be challenged one-at-a-time (e.g. Rank #3 must challenge Rank #2 before earning the chance to challenge Rank #1).Reasons: To prevent Rank #3 from skipping over Rank #2 to challenge and possibly win Rank #1 without honorably advancing through the top three and most important ranks one-at-a-time. We reduced this requirement from the top five ranks to the top three ranks because of several complaints and congestion, but we feel that the top three ranks, as the most important ones, should be well-deserved and honorably earned (as well as more challenging), rather than skipping over one of the Ladder's best players that might have very well stopped such a skip in a legal match.United Guilds Melee Ladder (U.S. East Non-Ladder)
