UK esports organisation Reason Gaming have today launched a new tournament website known as Reason2Play.
Reason2Play has been an on-again/off-again feature of Reason Gaming for the last four or so years, but after a bit of time and discussion, the organisation have decided to expand and start doing more with it.
The site will start off with an online ladder and tournaments for Street Fighter 6 to begin with, and there are plans to expand to other games at a later stage.
Sign-ups are now open for the Street Fighter 6 EU Beta Ladder. This ELO-powered ladder is open to all of Europe no matter what the skill level.
Reason Gaming said they would like to invite everyone to join them on Saturday March 23rd 2024 at 12pm GMT for the grand opening of the ladder.
Whoever is top of the ladder at 5pm on March 23rd will win £50 cash.
“As this ladder grows we plan on splitting it into several leagues and introducing a season length with promotions and demotions between the leagues, as well as running more online and offline tournaments.”

“The beauty of relying on an ELO ranking system is you can’t hog the top spot just by playing a lot,” Reason Gaming said.
“The amount of points you win/lose is based on your rank and your opponents rank, so if you want to climb the ladder fast you have to challenge the better players and win!
“As this ladder grows we plan on splitting it into several leagues and introducing a season length with promotions and demotions between the leagues, as well as running more online and offline tournaments.
“We also have plans to roll out a similar ladder, expanding into the same form for the American scene if enough interest is shown, so give us a wave America! If you are planning on taking part or want to keep up with what’s going on please join our Reason Gaming Discord. Welcome to Reason2Play.”
In other recent Reason Gaming news, Reason returned to their UK CS roots last month with a new roster featuring Byfield.
