Hardcore Level 99 Race: The Grimoire of the Unfallen — 300 Champions

Heroes of Sanctuary,

From the depths of darkness, those who have endured relentless trials now stand at a decisive moment—the time has come to carve their names into history.

On February 21, 2026, at 10:00 AM, with the dawn of Diablo II: Resurrected Ladder Season 13, the Hardcore Level 99 Race of the Demon Sorceress began its relentless march. Now this grand saga has reached its final chapter.

Under the merciless laws of Hardcore, where a single misstep means oblivion, these heroes faced every terror Sanctuary could muster. At last, 300 among them have risen, having achieved the fabled Level 99.

Selection Criteria

With honor comes scrutiny. Every record from this race has been rigorously examined by Blizzard.

To uphold the sanctity of fair competition, any participant found to have reached their level through the use of unauthorized programs, including multi-loaders or other illicit means, has been excluded from this list.

Only those who conquered Sanctuary through rightful means, only the true champions, are worthy of having their names inscribed within this Grimoire.

Lastly, we offer our deepest respect to all who took part in this race.

In the face of Hardcore’s unforgiving trials, your unwavering resolve and relentless perseverance stand as a testament—you are the true legends of Sanctuary.

To those whose names were not inscribed within this Grimoire, know this: your journey was not in vain.

Sanctuary forever awaits those who would rise to meet even greater trials. And once more, we extend our congratulations to the 300 heroes whose names are etched into the annals of Sanctuary for eternity.
