RTS-League: Clan Leagues for Strategy Gamers

Getting near the end of the year which is a good time to launch 2017's second Age of Mythology: The Titans Clan League! Last season we got brand new Champions in Fade2, and it seems like a good idea to test their skills again and dis/prove their claim on the community throne - do you have what it takes to challenge them or even simply take part in the traditional, longest running competition in AoT? Then read on and sign up!

RTS League is open to players of all skill levels, ranging from newcomers to seasoned pros, and we're proud to support the backbone of any online community - the clans. Over the years, we have gathered several returning participants with well-known names like Deities of Death, AbsoLads or Gladiadores del Mythology, but we're always keen on all the new clans that might be joining for the first time, sprinkling the competition with novelty and fresh blood - can you be the first-timer who surprises everyone and steals the prestigious Golden Banner for themselves? Give it a shot and rest assured - we'll be streaming your efforts live as we always do, providing some of the most popular streams in the community!

How to Sign Up

To take part in Season 29 and have a chance at the fun (and the Banners ), your clan will need to fit a few conditions to ensure you would be a positive contribution to the League.

First you will need a Clan Operator - the guy/gal representing you in the competition, scheduling your matches with the opponents and communicating with League staffers on your behalf. This person should be reliable, responsible and available regularly, every day if at all possible. Proper and timely communication is the key here. You can, of course, have more than 1 Clan Operator to cover for each other

Then you must have at least 6 active players ready to participate - this is to ensure you are able to complete your matches regularly even if some of your heroes happen to be temporarily unavailable.

Further you need to be familiar with the League rules. Read them carefully, and pay good attention.

Lastly, during seasons, we unfortunately also uncover foul play and need to take proper action, so here are the administrative decisions active for Season 29 you need to be aware of (still just the one :d):

- Player "reDo" is banned for life for multiple serious cases of malicious smurfing. Any clan found to be actively using him in League games will be subject to severe penalties or immediate disqualification. Be sure to know who is playing for you.

And when you've checked all these points and you're ready to join, then again make sure that your clan meets the criteria listed above and within the rules and simply post the following sign-up form (if you're new and need an account first, follow the instructions up top under the menu and we'll get it done). Returning clans need just to confirm the participation, but still re-read the rules, too, to be sure you know everything - ignorance is no excuse.

B(C, etc.)-teams need to supply their complete roster with the application as well to allow us to gauge their strength so that we know where to seed them. Please also pay special attention to the guidelines on Guest Players found in Rule 4 - you need to list them as well to allow us to properly seed the clans.

Please sign your clan up only if you seriously want to take part in the League, do not sign up inactive or fake clans or clans with too few players to actually meaningfully compete. Clans that drop out during the season will be excluded from the next one/s.

Sign-ups will be closed on Friday 10th November, Season 29 will start the following week.

If you have any further questions, feel free to contact our AoT staff members or any other staffers.

Looking forward to having you in the League, and spread the word - the more clans, the more fun for everyone!
