Greeting to everyone on AiB! I apologize for not getting to this on Saturday, as I was too occupied outdoors with attending the Anime Expo and other IRL plans, which caused me to remain offline for the rest of the day at the time. And so, I've worked on this during the morning of Independence Day. Also, due to recent small changes on each update, I'm about to decide on whether this should be made bi-weekly or not (as well as to provide much more interesting info, provide me some epic replays, etc.). Tell me what you guys think. Anyway, I give you guys the 5th update of this season's ladder, packed with some new and some old information. Let's see what we've got. And yes, my apology in advance still remains up here if I still remain inaccurate with your use of mains. This is all based on what my eyes see in your feedback.

Hey, everyone! I welcome you to the 4th update of this season's ladders that I bring to you as the competition still burns up! So, are we starting to see increased amounts of top tiers this time around while other characters of varied tiers headbutt each other for the top rankings? Will it be somewhat predictable for our eyes at this point to see who might be able to make it to the playoffs? We shall find out in this current update. And yes, my apology in advance still remains up here if I still remain inaccurate with your use of mains. This is all based on what my eyes see in your feedback.

Hey, everyone! With all the awesome and amazing E3-related content many of you have shared in the community throughout this week, we now shift gears to the Ladder area! I bring to you the 3rd update of this season's ladders as the competition continues to burn up with very intense brawls! Since the last update, Enrish has decided to pass the "Head of Ladder Content" title to me. I've had more available time and a little more interest to do this than he did. And so, I'm pretty much working this out alone, though I do ask for some assistance when it's needed. Anyway, let's see this week's recent updates. I'm still apologizing in advance if I still remain inaccurate with your use of mains. This is all based on what my eyes see in your feedback.

We still have about a month and a half till the playoffs come around. While there's some time remaining, you can still take a shot at any of the ladders and have some fun while representing your mains! Just remember that there is a total of $520 in prize money, as it gets split to first place prizes for each ladder: $320 for singles and $150 for doubles. Of course, some of the players who got (or will get) dropped will most likely try their best to get back to the top rankings. As each player and team continues to fight for the prize and the top of the ladders, the competitiveness and intensity will also increase! And so, to the current top 32 players and top 16 teams who made it to this update, we congratulate you for your hard work! Continue to aim higher as you try to maintain your current positions. We wish every player and team the best of luck once again as you seek for the top and make it to the playoffs! :]

Hey, everyone! It's finally about time we got the second ladder update posted up, and we apologize for the huge delay due to IRL-related things occupying our time. After almost 4 weeks, we have seen some interesting changes in the top rankings while the other players and teams are still trying their best to occupy their current positions. This time, we're seeing some mixture of both high and mid tiers used, along with a very small hint of low tiers throughout both ladders. Anyway, continue reppin' them mains out there while you're at it! And I apologize in advance if I'm still somewhat not accurate with your use of mains. So... shall we check these current top rankings out?

Side-note: These top rankings have been taken at 7:30 pm PST on Tuesday [06/08/10].
