November Leaderboard Update

‍

This November, the total leaderboard token rewards will remain at 1,500,000. Based on valuable player feedback, we’ve made changes to ensure a more balanced and rewarding experience for all. Rewards will now be distributed more evenly across the leaderboard, shifting from the Top 50 to a broader base of players. We believe this adjustment creates a fairer and more inclusive leaderboard.
‍

In addition, Endless mode will return as the primary reward mode for November. Although we initially planned to focus on Arena mode to encourage greater diversity in gameplay, critical flaws in Arena scoring led us to pause this transition. Endless mode will continue as the primary reward platform, as we believe it offers a more consistent and equitable playing experience.
‍

Due to unforeseen issues, we decided not to count scoring during the final week of October leaderboard competition. This affected Endless & Arena modes. We will be refunding all resources spent during this period. The bug—caused by an unintended effect from a recent hotfix—affected specific guardians and equipment combinations. To ensure fairness, we made the tough call to exclude all scores for the affected week. We recognize the frustration this may have caused and deeply apologise to those who dedicated time to competing, only to see their scores not count.
‍

To prevent similar issues in the future, we’ve implemented a new internal bug triage policy and placed a strict embargo on hotfixes during competitive scoring unless they are absolutely critical. Under this new policy, bugs will be categorised by severity. For severe issues that impact fairness, we’ll validate and reproduce the bug to assess the appropriate response, whether that means adjusting scores, resetting points, or, in rare cases, reducing or removing score contributions to Season Rankings.
‍

October Token Rewards are scheduled for distribution this week. However, we’ve been made aware of a concerning exploit that allows certain players to use Guardians they may no longer own. As a result, we have temporarily withheld rewards for players suspected of this behaviour while our investigation continues. We are committed to maintaining as fair and secure an environment as possible, and violations of digital ownership will not be tolerated. Further actions are anticipated, and we’ll announce the findings of our investigation once our investigations have concluded.
‍

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to create the best experience possible. Thank you for your feedback and dedication to a fair and enjoyable competition.
