Is it true that Marzio has been dead for 100 years, and what we see now is a ghost of him?
A: Definitely

It’s that time of the year when we rework a whole system again! This time, it’s the Trophy Season Reset!

What are the main problems with this system?

• It’s unnecessarily complex and not fun

• On top of that, the rewards suck!

• It discourages players from using their favorite Brawlers (because at one point it becomes too hard to push them)

• Also the matchmaking times get too long at high Trophy matches
  

Our goals with the new system are:

• Make the system clearer (not necessarily simpler) and fun!

• Make it more welcoming to casuals, but also more meaningful for ladder warriors 

• Make it more rewarding and therefore more engaging

• Remove the friction from playing high Trophy Brawlers

So, here’s all that is changing:

We are adding more Tiers and making the system clearer and more rewarding!
