<<CLASH UPDATE>>
Due to the recent social engineering attack the first Clash tournament of the year has unfortunately been delayed. This means that the first Clash tournament will not be in mid-February as it has been the past few years and the rest of the Clash tournament dates are being impacted as well. We’re working to get Clash back up and running as soon as possible, and promise to give you a schedule within the next few weeks as soon as we can provide accurate dates. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience in these unusual circumstances.
<<COMPETITIVE>>
Our data shows that comeback rates when a team fails a 4 of 5 early surrender (before 20 min) are low. Teams have a generally good sense of what games they will and won’t win when 4 of 5 players are on the same page. We’ll be testing a change to surrender thresholds that let these matches resolve more quickly. At the same time, it’s important that a winning team has time to feel powerful with a lead and games aren’t abandoned too soon. We’ll be closely monitoring player feedback and the impacts of this change to make sure this change well.
- In Blind Pick and Normal Draft, normal surrender (4 out of 5 OR 70% of team members must agree to pass the vote) is available at 20 minutes ⇒ 15 minutes. Unanimous early surrender requirement has been removed.
- Unrelated to the above, the MMR duo restriction for Apex ranks has been re-enabled
- Made matchmaking adjustments for faster Normal Blind Pick queue times
