Ranked Ladder Returns! Players to Receive 3 Kobolds & Catacombs Packs Next Week
The ladder has returned! We can stop spamming the forums and go back to playing our Aggro Paladin variants.
Blizzard is providing compensation to all players in the form of 3 Kobolds & Catacombs packs to be distributed next week through the Battle.net gifts interface. Some accounts may also have received additional stars in ranked.
Quote from AratilWe have implemented a hotfix for the issue that was affecting Ranked Play in all Hearthstone regions. To properly assess the scope of the issue, we had to temporarily disable Ranked Play while we worked on the hotfix. As part of the restoration process, some accounts may have received additional stars.
We understand this kind of downtime is disappointing for our community, and we apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. As a token of our appreciation for your patience, we’d like to offer everyone three Kobolds and Catacombs card packs. These card packs will be distributed next week and can be redeemed via the Gifting function either on the Battle.net Desktop App or by logging into your Battle.net account on your mobile device.
Everything should be working properly now and you can once again resume climbing the ladder in Ranked Play. We’re sorry for the disruption to your play experience and greatly appreciate your patience while we sorted it out!
Don’t think it works that way.
WSP
nicely done blizzard
i was 11 and i dropped to 12 wtf?
I went from 17 and 4 stars to 15 and 1 star. Street Sharks, JAWSOME!
Ugh I was pushed from rank 10 3 stars up to rank 8 2 stars. Now I have to try on the ladder =( haha (sarcasm).
Anyways, I feel this is a good move from them. There's no way I would have made it up that far on my own yesterday as I was quite busy haha. Hopefully the people who still have rank star problems get their stuff sorted out.
Same happened to me
Did anyone after fix lose DUST? i lost around 2k dust wtf?
Go to the official forums. They can look at transactions and help you out.
Okay. For 3 packs you can disable the ladder for another day anytime!
LOLz. And now, finally, Blizzard has totally and completely rendered achieving Legand completely insignificant. People needing only 1 win to Legend? Yeah, nice job Bliz. Not that it meant very much as it was...but this just demolishes any small prestige that was left.
That ship sailed in the secret paladin era.
I lost 8 ranks. I finished at 15 and now I'm at 23... I will open a ticket to them
I actually lost a star. Should be at rank 4 and when I logged today was at rank 5, 5 stars. Where can I complain about this?
Rank 4, 0 star is the same as rank 5, 5 star.
lol true enough!
I got 5 additional stars. I tried to play ranked like 5 times and got 5 stars. Is that how they distribute stars, how many times you abused the play button?
Probably not, right?
I didn't even try to play ranked and got some stars too so that's probably not the reason. If it was, I would be annoyed for the wasted chance to actually get to a decent rank :D Although free packs would ease that pain a lot, thanks Blizz!
Blizzard bumped me up to rank 15 4-stars in standard, and now they're giving us all 3 packs? This is yet another example of Blizzard loosening their grip on their purse strings and realizing that generosity won't kill your revenue. I didn't expect 3 packs, maybe 1 per day we were down! The consideration Blizzard has taken with players in both expansion releases and in compensation for technical issues this past year have been excellent.
Got 6 stars pushing me from rank 11 to rank 10, very nice ...
