In Stopwatch mode you will be able to use all vehicles but with popular restrictions. Rules for this ladder have been based on these from ClanBase ET:QW Beta Cup and these which are used in most popular ET:QW leagues. They’ve already been approved by the community and we think you will be happy to play with these regulations. With all these features we think that teams will enjoy playing many exciting games. 6v6 gives you many opportunities to finish objectives in different styles and of course you can use vehicles to help yourself. So grab your guns, take a seat and prepare to battle for first place in ET:QW 6v6 Stopwatch ladder.

Infantry - Infantry as the name says is different to Stopwatch. It will be based only on individual aiming and tactical skills of team. No vehicles and deployables will be allowed during games. You can experience who is best at aiming in your team and how that could help you to achieve final goal. So if you are relying only on your infantry and you don’t want to drive and destroy several vehicles on map, or you want a change from Stopwatch, you should definitely take part in this newborn ladder.

Beside standard 6v6 Stopwatch ladder with a commonly-used ruleset we have decided to start another 6v6 ladder without limiting weapons/deployables and vehicles. You will be allowed to use all the game has to offer. We know that many of our players came from Battlefield series so using vehicles will be something really good for them. But we also want other to give it a try and play games in other way than usual. So if you were anger that you couldn’t play game with full scale, you can now experience ET:QW with all game features in this new ladder.

To all the teams ready to kick ass in the ladders, good luck and have fun!
