The second ladder season in HEX is slowly but surely coming to an end. On November 1, 2016, the ladder seasons will flip and you will find yourself rewarded for your previous efforts. At the same time, the playing field will be leveled again and the battle for the top spots starts anew!
We hope you enjoyed Season 2 of the ladder. We want to take this chance and go over what you can expect from Season 3:
First, you will keep the highest sleeve you earned during Season 2, but all other cosmetic items (including plinths, sleeves, and rank) will be reset for the next season. As before, highly ranked players will receive a small boost in their initial ladder ranking so that all players can enjoy a smooth climbing experience.
Second, players will continue to be able to earn gold, packs, and Alternate Arts by climbing the Limited and Constructed ladders. This season, we have the following Alternate Arts up for grabs:
Those who reach Cosmic will also receive a season exclusive animated sleeve! You voted on it, so we are extremely excited to reveal our animated Alternate Art Cottontail Explorer sleeves.
Third, we updated the Terms and Conditions for the Cosmic Crown Showdown tournament, to ensure a consistently great experience for the competitors. You can check out the changes here.
Finally, we want to remind everyone that the Ladder system is an evolving thing. Please keep leaving your feedback for us on the forums. It is invaluable as we work to grow the Ladder into its best possible form.
