PVPEC -- The League!!

The PvPEC is pleased to announce the beginning of a fun and exciting PvP league that will be taking place on the Freedom Server.

The League is designed with the player in mind. By creating a system where each team is composed of two squads, one drafted squad and one selected squad, we have joined the competitive nature of the PvP Ladder with the easy going format of the PvP League into one style of play that everyone can enjoy.


  • Division 8 teams, which are selected by captains before the draft, will run in the traditional 8v8 format only against other Division 8 teams. This provides a medium for those wishing to participate in the fast and highly competitive nature of arena 8v8 matches.
  • Division 6 teams, which are composed of drafted players, will play in 6v6 format and only play other Division 6 teams. With this system, Division 6 will fight other squads in a no stress scenario that welcomes any and all players, no matter their powersets or PvP experience.
  • Both squads compose a single team so everyone is contributing no matter what division they belong to. Rounds will be scored for wins/ties/losses and the team with the highest cumulative score at the end of the season will be deemed the winner!


We are always working to get some sweet prizes for you guys for showing your support of the PvPEC and it's not gonna stop here. The League will have more prizes than any event we have held before! The details will be announced later so stay tuned!


Don't let those free server transfers go to waste, transfer a character over to Freedom and come join in the fun! Everyone is strongly encouraged to participate!

Unfortunately, no. I'll be captaining a team for it though. You should encourage people from justice to come sign up. It should be good fun - and the only organized PvP since the end of i12.

This is shaping up quite nicely, and hopefully it'll hold us over (and possibly help garner interest) until the organized ladder has enough teams to start. If you're interested in team arena PvP and you haven't already moved things to Freedom, I'd strongly suggest you give it a shot. Transfers are free through Saturday, and you really have nothing to lose by taking a look around.

This doesn't have anything to do with the current league, but your sig made me curious. Since you can set the Arena to not have diminishing returns and heal decay, why is the test PvP ladder still dead?

The no DR option makes it near impossible to get kills, as most targets will have capped resistances to all damage, and defender debuffs are no longer unresisted. Double AS is really the only practical way to get kills in DR-off team matches.

That's why DR will be ON for this league. Travel Suppression and Heal Decay will be OFF.

Ok, thanks for the explanation. I didn't know if turning DR off reverted all the PvP changes or what. It's sad to see the Test Ladder gone, as I know it was really important to a lot of people.

Again, if you're on Justice, haven't already moved to Freedom, are interested in organized team arena PvP, and have Thursday nights free, transfer something over! Worst that'll happen is you'll have to pay $10 for a transfer back if you don't like it.
