[h2]Season 15 Ranked Leaderboard Reset[/h2]
It has come to our attention that a significant bug has affected the integrity of thr Season 15 ranked leaderboards. This bug inadvertently allowed users to gain ranked points at an accelerated rate, undermining the fairness and competitive spirit of the ranked leaderboards. After thorough investigation and deliberation, we have made the difficult decision to reset the leaderboards for Season 15 ranked and duel to ensure the integrity of the season. The leaderboards will be reset with maintenance on March 20.

We recognize the frustration and disappointment this may cause to the users who participated in ranked matches over the past week, and we want to express our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience. We are committed to maintaining a fair and competitive playing field for all our players, and this reset is a necessary step to address the current issue and ensure the competition of Season 15 is fair for everyone.

To express our sincere apologies and in recognition of the disruption this decision brings, we will be hosting an XP/GP Boost Event this weekend, starting on Saturday 23rd of March at 10AM (KST) and ending on Monday the 25th of March at 10AM (KST).

Once again we are truly sorry for any inconvenience this has caused. Thank you for your continued support and understanding.
