Today kicks off the start of a new season of StarCraft: Remastered! It’s time to see your New Year’s resolution through and jump on the ladder.

As usual, you’ll need to complete five placement matches to get things started. After that, you’ll be placed in a rank based on the following rank ranges.

These ranges will only apply to players who complete their placement matches within the first two weeks of the new season. Afterwards, we will move to a percentage-based system, as shown in the image above.

A new season also means new rewards. The brutal Hydralisk is our featured unit for the season, and the portrait borders are Zerg-themed.

For the fiercest players, we have a new animated portrait, bestowed to those who achieve rank S.

Season 3 is live right now! Jump in and start earning ladder points and the new rewards. GLHF!
