Do you and a friend think you’ve got what it takes to be the best Halo 3 players around? Prove it on our new Halo 3 ladder with a maximum prize purse of $10,000, beginning Oct. 24 (Oct. 23rd, 9:01PM PST on the west coast)!

There is no registration deadline; you can register for the duration of the ladder, but if you want a part of the cash, you can’t let the other teams get a head start on you!

The GGL is kicking in $3,000 to start with for this ladder, but will add $1 per person after 3,000 to the prize purse, up to a maximum of $10,000.

What does it all mean? Tell your friends to join this competition if you want to make more money. The more that join, the more money there’s available to win.

Here’s the prize breakdown:

Prize purse: $3,000 minimum
1st: 40% ($4,000 max)
2nd: 20% ($2,000 max)
3rd: 10% ($1,000 max)
4th: 10% ($1,000 max)
5th-8th: 2.5% ($250 max)

Sweepstakes: Here’s the kicker – you don’t even have to be good to win money! GGL is also kicking in cash prizing to a randomly selected ladder participant – all you have to do is play 10 legit ladder matches and you could win 10% ($1,000 max) of the prize pool.

The competition format is a ladder that feeds into a bracket, seeded by ladder results. The number of teams that advance to the bracket is dependent on the number of total participants. We’re currently running a 1v1 practice ladder that you can use to shake the rust off. To join, visit GGL’s Halo 3 1v1 practice ladder page and hit “JOIN LADDER.”

The $10,000 2v2 Ladder begins Oct. 24th and runs until Dec. 2. The brackets start Dec. 5. Full rules are available under the “Rules” tab on the Halo 3 2v2 Celebration Ladder landing page.
