After a few rumours were leaked about a possible new league coming for L4D2, we can now confirm that this is true. Cybergamer is proud to welcome you to the new L4D2 Mutation League. We will be running short 6 week leagues, where the game mode will change after that 6 weeks. With 6 teams in each bracket, this means that each of the 5 mains maps gets played once, and each teams plays each other once. The final week will see the top 2 teams of each bracket play off in a final. A draft schedule has been written up, and will be posted once enough teams have signed up and have been placed in to their brackets. We have written up a quick FAQ in regards to this league:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What gametype will this league be?

The league will be rotating gametype each league season. Initially, the league will be running Realism Confogl Versus. To make this even more of a challenge, T2 weapons will be disabled, and a few other little options are currently being decided upon. After that, it is looking likely that the second season will be Scavenge, using the Revox mod. After that, we are looking at a few options, and are also happy to hear your suggestions.

How do I add my team to this league?

View the league page here and select the "Create New Team" yellow button on the right hand side. From there, in the middle of the options, you will have the option to "clone" a team. Select this and then select your L4D2 ladder team. This will then create your team in the mutation league waiting pool. Players on your team will be invited to this team, and not automatically accepted, so remind them to check their notification bar at the bottom of the CG page.

How do I challenge a team in this league?

The league is run differently to a ladder. Matches will be set up for you weekly. The league will be based on a win/loss ratio, with points for and against coming in to play if needed. As said, matches will be set up each week by the admins, and games MUST be played that week. If a team makes no effort to assist in setting the match up, or playing it, they will forfeit that week.

How have the teams been put in to brackets?

The admins have decided on a maximum 24 team league. This league is split up in to four six team brackets. The teams in the "invite" bracket are teams the admins have decided on being the most competitive, and have been chosen on a variety of criteria, including current ladder position, scrim and match performance, team stability and how active these teams are. The other 18 teams will be randomly placed in to brackets.

Who are the teams in the invite bracket?

While these teams are not 100% set in stone yet, we have decided the following teams will be placed in the invite bracket:

TeamOGL
Calculus
3rd Fallschirmjager
[]
Paradox
Frenetic Array

There' your feedback Z. Nice and constructive.

I expected more. At least a "borrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"

Done it again. Might have to look into putting a LOL (haha one, not the league of losers!) team.

And then 2v2 realism with only incapping SI spawns, and then realism versus survival, and then realism scavenge and then realism singleplayer.

Realism makes everything better.

Be mine, Zombie.

how do i shout [] is it like [ ]!! or []!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!? i duno

theres no "Join Ladder" green button

On the right hand side, there is a yellow button that says "Create New Team". Apologies, a few things may have changed since I originally wrote that FAQ.

Will update

Come on guys, get behind it Still a lot of spots left

Meh... you would have to get know every single silly gameplay that Valve has just made so that people would buy L4D3 when it comes out >.>

Still no comic and L4D1 Update

I am not sure people are reading this right. We are not running EVERY mutation valve has put out. We are only running a few select ones that are competitively viable.

Please read the first post, especially the "What gametype will this league be" section.

Zombie I'm disappointed that Last Man Standing isn't scheduled to be in the competitive ladder. What the hell man.

Doctor Huge: I'll crash through the window of the Morning show
Doctor Huge: naked
Doctor Huge: with the words
Doctor Huge: "CYBERGAMER L4D2"
Doctor Huge: spraypainted on my chest
Doctor Huge: it'll be an immediate internet success
Doctor Huge: and you know what they say about advertising

This idea made me laugh for 49minutes and 32 seconds.
