Get your loyal troops up to scratch for Season IX Ranked Battles with a 20% Boost to Unit XP until October 11!

• Starts: October 8, 09:00 server time
• Ends: October 11, 23:59 server time
• Boost: +20% to Unit XP

This boost does not apply to Heroes, even if they are Grand Champions.

Ranked Battles return on October 8! Accessible throughout Season IX: Tyranny, check out the Event Schedule to plan your rise through the ranks over the coming weeks.

Unlike regular matchmaking battles, from which you primarily earn Bronze and XP, Ranked Battles are all about creating a persistent record of where you sit beside other heroes. Your efforts will still reward you with experience and go towards fulfilling quest objectives (although you won’t receive any Bronze), but Ranked Matchmaking is primarily about establishing an evolving order of dominance. 

As well as ranks to climb by earning points, there are weekly and season rewards to unlock - including a choice of unit attires to parade in front of your competitors.

You can always check out your current rank by pressing ‘J’ and selecting the Ranked Battle tab.
[h2]Matchmaking Ranks[/h2] The Maps [h2]Ranked Rewards[/h2][h2]Ranked Battle Information[/h2]

• Cross-server battles will be enabled, meaning players from NA/EU will be matched together. Matchmaking for NA will first search for players on their own server before moving them into the cross-server queue (EU will automatically go into the cross-server queue).
• Ranked Battles will occur all weekend during the Season, and with cross-server enabled, we anticipate shorter queue times.
• Ranked Battles are scheduled to run throughout Season IX.
• Characters must be level 100 or above to take part in Ranked Battles.
• Player groups are limited to 3 members.
• Above Gladiator, players within a group must all be within one rank of one another. (Eg: If one player is ranked Arena Hero, the others must either be Arena Hero or Gladiator, or Arena Hero and Imperial Hero)
• Deployable artillery per player is limited to one piece for defenders and two for attackers.
• Units do not endure permanent losses.
• In-game currency is not given out as a reward for participation.
• Rewards will be distributed weekly and after the conclusion of a season, as appropriate.
• The rules, schedule and rewards for Ranked Battles are subject to change, although we will strive to keep you updated prior to any changes.

Where there was once peace, chaos now reigns. Defy evil with three new Seasonal Units, available to unlock via Unit Challenges throughout Season IX: Tyranny, each with their own unique set of skills. Recruit the Outriders, a cavalry unit armed with throwing spears, and the axe-hurling Axe Raiders, both available to unlock in-game now. From October 25, a new unit from the East will also join the ranks: the incendiary Shenji Grenadiers.

Participate in the new Seasonal Campaign to take back the devastated Borderlands. Regaining control of the legendary Conqueror’s City from the ruthless Tyrant is your end goal, with preliminary battles to be waged in Territory Wars before the final showdown. Season IX’s Territory Wars have changed for the better, and every Tuesday and Saturday you can wage server-wide war with your allies by your side.

Buy the Season IX Battle Pass in-game or via MY.GAMES Market to earn over 100 levels of Premium rewards as you complete Seasonal Challenges, accumulate Glory, and level up throughout the season. As Conqueror’s Blade is a free-to-play game, there are still many treasures to be claimed on the Free Pass, too.

The age of heroes is over – it’s time for rebels. Take up arms and rally against evil in Season IX: Tyranny. Raise your rebellion, forge alliances, and seek glory on the battlefield as you embark on this new Seasonal Campaign!

To participate in the Campaign, you must belong to an NPC or player-controlled House/Cohort or Alliance and fight alongside your fellow warlords via the ‘Battle’ interface or in the open world to gain control of settlements. Season IX’s Territory Wars began on September 28 and will occur every Tuesday and Saturday throughout the season. For more information about Territory Wars, check out our top tips here.

Territory Wars have improved in Season IX, and you can read up on those changes here.

The Season IX Campaign is divided into five stages. The Borderlands is the core region, with the main objective being its Capital: Conqueror’s City (in Stage 5). As stages progress, access is granted to neighbouring regions, which then become conquerable. The Borderlands’ fiefs will grant Influence to their captors’ Alliance, and whoever controls Conqueror’s City will be the victor. The winning House’s liege will receive the Hegemon title, and all members will receive additional rewards.
[h2]SEASON IX: CAMPAIGN DATES[/h2]
Rewards from taking part in Territory Wars and completing quests during the Season IX Campaign include Chests of Bronze and Treatise in various quantities (check in-game for more details).


The Season IX Campaign ends December 6, when the Alliance with ownership of Conqueror’s City will be crowned the victors. Good luck, warlords!
