Real-Time Ladder

Real-Time ladder does automatically create games of player currently logged into the ladder. That's why You should leave ladder when You leave Warlight and You are not able to play, cause otherwise ladder can create game, opponent can join and You might get booted. The good news is that if You get booted in real-time ladder game, You will get automatically logged out of the ladder after first boot.

You will be proposed 1 game at a time. You cannot choose the person to play it, it's random. Same as map is random. You just log in to ladder, play games and then log out. It's possible to play with same player not more than once per 20 hours.
