This makes it more straight forward, Immortal is where the leaderboard starts and because of this we try to hold players more accountable for their standings. By adding another rank we were able to push the Five Stack penalty and Solo/Duo restrictions into Immortal.This restriction now begins at Immortal 1. Remember, Diamond 3 and above could previously only solo, duo, and 5-stack.Solo/Duo/5-stack restriction now starts at Immortal 1 (previously Diamond 3).


So by adding a new rank we can better distribute you across ranks, keep the prestige of high ranks, while helping better define the skill level of each rank. When we were looking at rank distribution, we realized that if we were to move some of you up and out of those lower ranks, it would overpopulate Platinum and Diamond. We believe our lower ranks have a few too many of you, especially Bronze and Silver.Added an additional rank above Diamond, below Immortal, called “Ascendant.”.We are temporarily removing Split from the map pool in Unrated and Competitive queues.Pearl-only queue will be available for 2 weeks, then after that Pearl will enter Competitive.This queue is a standard, Unrated mode that will give players a chance to practice the new map before they see it in Competitive play.
