At the end of the season, Ranked Rumble replaces the regular Ranked League as the only available Ranked option. Additionally, the entry cost, placement, and KP tuning have been modified as follows:

  • Lower entry cost above Bronze Tier
    • Gold: 35 (was 40)
    • Platinum: 55 (was 60)
    • Diamond: 75 (was 80)

    • 15th: 5 (was 0)
    • 14th: 5 (was 0)
  • Kill Point Tuning
    • 8th: 14 (was 12)
    • 7th: 14 (was 12)
    • 6th: 16 (was 12)

Developer’s Note: We have taken into account the valuable insights we received from last season’s data and community feedback. As a result, we have made some minor adjustments, including lowering the entry cost for ranks above Bronze, awarding placement points to all Top 15 players, and increasing the KP for players in the 6th-8th positions. We will continue to monitor and may make further updates in the future.

We acknowledge and reward players for making strategic decisions in their placement and for performing exceptionally well in combat, resulting in Kills. While achieving a Top 5 placement can be seen as a strategic choice, it will not earn you additional points. In order to receive additional points, you must validate your placement by also achieving eliminations.
