Upcoming Flag Mode Changes

Attention Racers,

During the August 9 (PT) Mid-Season 3 Update, we will be introducing a pair of changes to Flag Mode, in an effort to combat certain abnormal play patterns, as well as relaxing an event's difficulty to make it more attainable through normal play.

First, one of the elements of the Capture the Flag Event, the "Win 5 Flag Mode Races within 2 Minutes" challenge, will be updated. It will now challenge Racers to win 5 Flag Mode Races within 2.5 Minutes, making it a bit easier to complete through normal play.

Additionally, we will be updating Flag Mode to forcibly Retire those that are not attempting to play the match, specifically targeting Racers that are AFKing throughout the match. Normal play should be unaffected by these changes.

We hope that these changes will help improve Flag Mode for Racers of all skill levels. There's more coming with the August 9 (PT) Mid-Season 3 Update, and keep an eye out for the Patch Notes coming soon!

Thank you,
