UC2, now there's an underplayed game
Again, I reiterate just how awesome UC2 was on this front. It not only had a campaign mode, but it also had a tournament mode for all the characters.
I'm not sure what you mean by a Tournament Ladder being a prelude to the tournament....
I think they could have done both - A Tournament Ladder with CTF, DM, TDM, Challlenge! After completing that a Warfare/Invasion/Assault ladder would open - a prelude to the tournament!
