Today marks the start of season 2 ranked ladder play. To kick off this season, we’re announcing a special event using the brand new profile icons that were added this patch.
Show your team pride
Along with the standard profile icons introduced yesterday, you might have noticed six select team icons in the game.
These icons are more than just cosmetic. For the next three weeks, each win on the ranked ladder while wearing a team’s icon will count as a point for that team. At the end of the event, the team with the most points will get a skin themed around their team added to the game. You can keep track of how your favorite team is doing right here:
Current Score
- We were incorrectly counting some matches happening outside of ranked mode in our initial graph. We’ve applied a new filter to correct this which is why even though the same teams are still in the lead, the proportions and total number of games are now smaller.
- To prevent manipulation of scores we’ve put in some measures to weed out “fake games”, i.e. win-trading and other nefarious practices. This has also reduced the total number of games albeit by a much smaller amount than the above ranked vs non-ranked change.
There’s still 2 weeks left so make sure you get out there and rep your favorite team!
