Hello, this is the Rakion Team.

Ladder Mode has a new update ??Auto Match!

We?셪l be holding a pre-test before the official update release. Check out the update details below and how to participate. You?셪l even get prizes just for participating!

1. What is ?쏛uto Match??
The Auto Match ladder mode is the upgraded version of our current ladder mode system. The Auto Match system automatically matches you against other players who share similar latency, levels and experience.
Key features:
??The system will connect you to other users (from around the world) who share the same latency.
??You will be matched against players with similar levels and experience.
??Lower level users can possibly be matched against higher level users if they win successive matches.
??Maps are generated randomly.
??Exp formula has been changed.

2. How does Auto Match work?
a. To enter Auto match ladder mode, go to the ladder test server (previously known as Others) from the server selection screen.
b. On Ladder Mode, choose the number of players to play against (1vs1, 2vs2, 8vs8, etc.)
c. Press Start, and the system will start searching for available rooms that meet your conditions.

3. How long is the pre-test period?
The pre-test will take place from: November 10th ~ November 15th before Maintenance GMT +9 (about a week)

??The schedule is still tentative and may still change.
??The server may be shut down without warning if any critical bug is discovered.
??Ladder mode exp will be reset before pre-test starts. This is to test whether the revised level exp formula will work as it should.
??Pre-test users will retain their ladder mode levels after pre-test ends. Ladder mode exp will be reset before the 4th Ladder Mode Tournament begins.

4. What kind of rewards will winners receive?
The top 20-ranked players by characters (total 100-ranked players) will receive ladder mode items (Gold Reward, Penalty Decrease, Chance).

Users who report the most bugs (critical ones) during pre-test will also receive the same items.

Rewards will be sent by post on November 22nd.

Sincerely,

Softnyx Management
