The February 10th season unfortunately coincided with the release of a test new pack on the web version, which took interest of of speedrunning the game, but with it finally becoming official we can expect a bit a resurgence, hopefully. The Winners of the February 10th patch have beaten the overall record once again, congratulations to:
Standard Pack in 2m 39s: IanTang! and Expansion Pack #1 in 3m 18s: akren!
With this being the biggest patch ever naturally some changes will occur to the leaderboards. First, the past and the obvious. A new subcategory of the May 10th patch will be added to Arena Win categories that runs will be submitted to from now on, effectively refreshing them. Also, some might have noticed that the 3 Arena Wins category has been deleted half way through the last season, that was due to insufficient interest. I think we may just need to stick to doing Arena runs with different packs. Which is not too bad because of all the new additions! Both the Patch-Combined and Arena Win categories will get "Expansion Pack #2" and "Custom Pack" categories. They will work on a seasonal cycle like the ones existing currently, but there will be no category for the Weekly Pack. I'd love to hear your thoughts but the way I see it it is simply not practical to hold a leaderboard for a category that not only is nearly random in nature but also changed so often. With that being said, I wish all of you a great time trying out the new patch!
