The SEA ladder is an essential part of the SEA Starcraft 2 scene and the community as a whole. Lately, however, the SEA ladder has fallen stagnant due to a lack of competition, especially at the Grandmaster level, with many good players opting to play on foreign servers instead. We propose a fun competition between clans on the SEA ladder, in order to make the ladder experience more exciting: The SEA Clan Ladder Challenge!
Before the start of next season, each participating clan submits a full list of their Grandmaster and Master players (so if they get into Grandmaster we can immediately add their points to the team score).
Every Sunday night at midnight, the ladder points of the Grandmasters from each clan will be averaged, and that average will be the number of points the clan receives that week (rounded to the nearest integer).
At the end of the season, the clan with the most points will be crowned the Gods of ladder, and will gain the community's ovation and fame forever! (or at least until the next season)

Running parallel to the weekly clan rankings, there will be weekly player rankings within each individual clan. At season's end, the MVP for each clan will be awarded the title Ladder Hero as well as the adoration and jelly of their clan!
At the end of the season, all Ladder Heroes will go into a bracket to determine who will receive the title of Ultimate Ladder Hero, supreme bragging rights, and $50! Details about the brackets will be released near the end of the season in which this takes place.
At the end of each week if the clan has fewer than 3 Grandmasters, they will not receive points for that week. This is to ensure that this is a team effort and not a solo effort.
The points of every Grandmaster in participating clans will be tallied. You can't opt out.
If any players in diamond or below reach Grandmaster, please inform the admins ASAP.
If bad manners are encountered from any participating players, please try to ignore them. If they are severe and consistent however, action will be taken.
Hacking will not be tolerated. If any member of a participating clan is caught hacking, that clan will be disqualified.
If clans do not have enough GMs they can form a clan alliance so their players may still have a chance at winning or being a Ladder Hero.
Both clans and teams are allowed to participate.
A player can only be on one clan's roster.
If there are suggestions, queries or concerns please contact the admins and we will attempt to address them in a speedy manner.
We highly encourage as many clans as possible to participate in order to foster more friendly competition and make laddering on SEA a more enjoyable experience.
First Scoreboard will be taken on Sunday 20th of January, and each subsequent Sunday thereafter. Scores taken Sunday night midnight AEDT.
