Feast on Thrones:
Gents beat Overwatch this weekend in the Sky League on Duel at Dawn, claiming their title!

Velvet:
would I be right in thinking that any of a clan's teams are eligible to win and lose titles for their clan? so the Mad Hatters' victory against the Clamour on Fjords during Sky League bracket one would mean the Gents have claimed the Ducks' title for Fjords?

I was wondering when that one would pop up. ;)

Yessir. Amusingly, the Gents lost on Fjords the same day that they claimed it. But OVW couldn't take it until the Gents had it and had it confirmed. So your title is safe (for now).

now that I think about it, those matches were going on at almost exactly the same time. However I'm pretty sure you guys were already well into your Canyons game when I opened the stream after our match so the Gents probably hadn't won any titles when you beat them anyway, albeit only by a matter of minutes. ^^

The way I personally view it is that a title can only be taken if the title has been actively transferred, and that there should be a buffer period of a day or so after a title is taken to claim it. After that point, if the original title holder loses it in a different match, the new team could claim it instead. For instance.

1. Team A holds the title Masters of Ambush.
2. Team B beats Team A on Canyon ambush in a tournament on 4/1.
3. Team C beats Team B on Canyon Ambush later in that tournament.
4. Team D beats Team A on Canyon Ambush on 4/3

In 2, Team B takes the title. In 3, it would be up for debate whether Team C could take the newly won title, or if there would be a safe period. I would lean towards safe period, meaning Team B still holds the title.
If Team B should actively claim the title, then 4 means nothing. Nobody cares.
But if Team B has not claimed the title by the time 4 happens, then I would say that Team D now owns the title.
This helps keep the titles in the hands of teams that are interested in the side game.
All of this sort of screws over Team C, but such is life.

Either way, our games were close enough to simultaneous that I wouldn't try claiming it anyways. :P
