GOSUGAMERS PROUDLY PRESENTS: PROJECT CARRIER - BEAUTIFUL, SIMPLE, LEGAL
Rumours, speculations, hype, tension, stress, programming and more rumours. Just more than a month later, GosuGamers finally announces the ladder project under the codename "Carrier". It's a carrier to unite the StarCraft community once more.

GosuGamers heard the call, and put together a ladder with all our efforts combined. Let us explain how it works.

Beautiful, Simple and Legal

Unlike other ladders out there, Carrier is web-based without a bot on Battle.Net; this makes our ladder 100% legal. This also means that it is gateway-independent, heck, you can even play it on Hamachi.

The channel is beautiful; the method is simple; the ladder is legal.

The channel

Players enter a channel that works as a chat place. You see all the players to the right with their rank. Their names are the accounts they signed up with and will use when playing. The chat is AJAX based, and is updated automatically, without refreshes.

Challenge an opponent

Once in the channel you may challenge any player by using the Challenge function. Enter the game format, your opponent's name, which map and on which gateway. Then sit back and wait for your opponent to either accept or decline.

You got a game

When your opponent has accepted, you will both automatically be moved to another page which shows all the necessary information you need to play your game.

Automatic game search

Or, if you can not seem to find some one to challenge, let Carrier do it for you. With our automatch system, we connect you together with a player of the same rank. When you have found an opponent, you will be moved to the same page as if you have made a manual challenge.

The ranking

The ranking shows all the players who have played a game. You can see the player's rank, rating, wins, losses and their percentage.

Interface in all major languages

The whole ladder interface has a translatable interface inbuilt and will be featured in Korean, Chinese and major StarCraft languages.

We hope this gift will be well appreciated. Check the news below for more information on for how to register for the beta season.
