Recently discovered alongside a pair of castaways who refused to leave their treasure behind, the Wild Chest is now available for purchase in Malhalla! The Wild Chest has 18 skins in total with three chest exclusive skins:

  • Lionheart Roland

  • Meadowguard Ember

  • Fox Spirit Yumiko

Season 5 Update!

Season Changeover and Glory Rewards!

  • Season 4 has officially come to a close and Season 5 has begun!

  • Season 4 rewards have been delivered! Check your inventories for avatars, borders, and Glory to spend in Mallhalla.

NEW Goldforged Weapons!

  • You can now purchase Goldforged Weapons for 7.5K Glory each.

  • You MUST own the Skyforged version of a weapon in order to purchase the Goldforged version.

  • If you own a Goldforged Weapon Skin you can no longer refund the corresponding Skyforged Weapon Skin unless you refund the Goldforged Weapon Skin first.

Soft Elo Reset

1v1 and 2v2 Personal Rating

  • Under 1400New Elo = Old Elo
  • Over 1400New Elo = 1400 + (Old Elo – 1400) / (3 – (3000 – Old Elo) / 800)

2v2 Team and Legend Rating

  • 2v2 Team & Legend Ratings have been brought closer to 750.

  • Under 2000: Elo = (Elo + 375) / 1.5

  • Over 2000, we aggressively brought you back down as a way of resetting the top tiers. Diamond level players will be reset to high gold or low platinum.

Glory Earnings Calculation

Glory earned is based on a combination of your Peak Rating (highest 1v1, 2v2, team, or Legend rating/elo) and total Wins. This was designed in order to reward both skill and dedication for those who pursue Glory. You gain 20 Glory per win up to 150 wins which gets you 3000 Glory. After 150 wins, each subsequent win gives you slightly less.

There is a minimum requirement of 10 games played to be eligible for Glory based on your rating.

Ranked Borders from Season 4

If you placed in gold or better in your best rating, you are given a ranked border that people will see in the match preview screen. There is a ranked border for gold, platinum, and diamond tiers. These will last for one season and will be updated again after Season 5. Your border from Season 3 does not carry over or have any impact on your Season 4 border.

Ranked Avatars from Season 4

Ranked Avatars include prestigious versions for those who’ve placed in high ranks during previous seasons. For example, if you placed in Platinum last season and Gold this season you’ll receive the upgraded versions of the Competitor’s Badge and Gold
