Arena Pass: Ranked Ladder Phase 1 Has Begun

You’ve chosen your teammates, planned your strategies, tried them out on the field and learned some vital lessons, but the time for practice is now at an end. Things just got serious.

Ranked Ladder Phase 1 of the 2011 World of Warcraft Arena Pass has begun. Participants have had ample time during the Practice Phase to pin down their tactics, try various class compositions and get used to playing with their teams. Now all team ratings have been reset to 0. From this point onward, every match counts.

To track the progress of your team and competition, please visit the World of Warcraft Armory.

In this phase, players who participate in at least 50 rated 3v3 games on one character and with the same team, and remain in that team until the end of this year’s Arena Pass, will be eligible for the Armored Murloc pet for their live characters. Members of the top 1,000 teams will even earn the esteemed "Vanquisher" title, providing they have played at least 100 games in this phase and remain in that team until the end of the Arena Pass. For more information on the Arena Pass, please visit our Arena Pass information page. To discuss the Arena Pass with your fellow players, head over to the Arena and Rated Battlegrounds forum. Good luck, and may the best teams win!
