New Player Challenge #33 & more

Desselie is back hosting this tournament!
But hyhy from the previous two will actually run a similar one as an extension to it.
More about that at the bottom.

The next New Player Challenge is on Saturday, March 2.

If you are new to the game, this tournament is a great way to dip your toes into playing competitively.

It is only open to players with less than 200 hours in game.
And the winner gets a DLC skin of their choice.

IMPORTANT:
Don't forget to read the full description and the explanation about submitting your hours. Failing to do so will disqualify your entry.


Tournament communication will happen on the LLB Stadium discord server.



Onto the extension to this tournament: the Stadium Arcadian hosted by hyhy on March 30. As an intermediate to the unrestricted tournaments, this one has a limit of 500 Lethal League hours, but with one additional twist: At 24 entrants and above it will run a pools stage that splits players into a top and bottom bracket. This will give you both more matches to play as well as more opponents at a similar skill level. Great format, whether you've outgrown the 200 hour limit or aren't even close to reaching it!

Due to proximity to the next NPC a week later and perception of required skill level with the higher hour limit this event was postponed for now. To still test the format itself that day, a tournament open to all players is held instead.


OH, and another heads up before the full steam event announcement drops: the Lethal League Blaze community was asked to return to Combo Breaker 2024 in May - so naturally they will. We are going to chip in again. Keep an eye out for that.

Ranked Season 12

It's been over a year! Time to hit that button.
Season 11 will be archived on January 26, starting the new ranked season 12.

If you are new to the game, I highly recommend you to dip your toes into the ranked queue during the holidays and before the reset to get properly matched with other new players.

And with that experience you can join the New Player Challenge tournament on January 6: https://steamcommunity.com/games/553310/announcements/detail/3899618444935341601

Among them is a special online ladder format focused on providing every participant as many matches as possible, same weekend as NPC #28.

And there are locals.
One at the Cream City Convergence: Community Coordinated Competitions in Milwaukee, September 30th.
