Hi there, humans, time to drop some good news!
Here’s the short version:
- Old leaderboards were removed, some rewards will be given to the top players
- New ranked gold queue, no more casual gold queue
- New ping system
- Don’t forget about tomorrow's tournament!!
And here is the detailed version:
RE: The old leaderboards
If you were afraid to have grinded for nothing, fear not, some rewards will be handed out to the top players from the old leaderboards.
RE: The new Ranked queues
First and foremost, we made some changes to the Ranked System yet again. In our effort to improve the game, we came to the conclusion that having 1 Gold queue instead of 2 would be a more fun experience, with shorter queuing times.
For those that would be taken aback by this change, here’s the logic behind it:
- Actual rankings, with skill based points system
- Win and lose points according to the rankings of the players you beat
- Higher/Lower tier players are more likely to face players in their skill range
RE: New ping system
- See it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBq6WGH6Hts
- Pings now are much more visible: Bigger and always have text
- Default pings show friendly messages at the start of the game
- After the countdown timer, default ping shows "Attention" type text
- Attack pings show "Let's go!" type text
- Defense pings show "Fall back" type text
- All pings now have an animation on the map
