The regular season of the Guild Wars 2 Pro League has come to an end and the top four teams across Europe and North America have been decided!
The North American frontrunners made themselves known early on, leaving them to battle for seeding and prize money in Week 7. While Team PZ and Astral Authority will be going on to compete for a share of the Season 2 Finals US$100,000 prize pool, Week 7 meant a lot to all of the teams, as the top eight positions in the standings recieved a share of an additional US$50,000 regular season purse.
Here are the top moments from the last day of matches in the North American regular season:
8. Gems N Tonic kicked off the night with a lot of promise to move out of their 7th place position.
