_Season 4: Ranked Update_

All Ranked MMR values have been hard reset. Everyone will begin this season at the same MMR value.
In subsequent seasons we will do a soft reset.

Updated Qualifying

We have updated our placement algorithm for placing players out of qualifying to better represent their estimated skill.

Multiple Splits

The full Ranked Season has now been divided into multiple Splits, mirroring our eSports scene.
At the end of each Split, we will distribute rewards and do a soft reset of the Ranked Ladder, leading into the next Split.

Promotion Games Removed

Any points earned past 100 will go towards your next division. (ex: After a win a player has 108 points. They will promote to the next division and have 8 points in that division.)
Players now only need to reach 101 points to go to the next division instead of needing to get 100 points and then win again.
After being promoted players will have protection from immediately being demoted for a few games.

Lobby Timers Updated

Teams in draft pick will now have bonus time they can use during the Pick and Banning phase. If a Pick or Ban timer hits 0, it will begin taking time away from the bonus time pool instead. This time is shared across all the Pick and Ban phases for your team.

Ranked Pause

Teams can now pause during ranked game. A team who wishes to pause will need to start a vote. Once the vote has passed, the game will pause automatically once everyone is out of combat. The pause will last for one minute.
This can only be done once per team per game.

New Leaderboards

All leaderboards will now show the region that the player plays in.
Masters division is back and Grandmasters has been updated.
Masters division now sits between Diamond and Grandmasters.
Grandmasters now only accepts the Top 25 Players from Masters into its ranks.

God Leaderboards
Players will now be able to see how they compare against other players when playing a specific God.
After 5 qualifying games with a God you will be placed on the God Leaderboard and will be able to see how you stand up against other players.
Depending on your placement you will be placed into one of three tiers. This placement will appear around you in the Lobby once you have selected a character your are ranked with.

Ranked Rewards

Each split there will be rewards available to everyone for simply playing Ranked. Qualifying will earn you a bonus Chest Roll, while winning 25 games will give you a special Recall FX that is tied to the split you are playing in.

Additionally, there are now Gem Rewards available for the top 25 players in each league.
Top 5 Players will receive 3500 Gems.
Top 6 – 20 players will receive 2500 Gems.
Top 21 – 25 Players will receive 1500 Gems.

God Leaderboards will also have their own rewards. If you are in the top 3 for any given God you will receive a Gem Reward.
1st : 800 Gems.
2nd : 400 Gems.
3rd : 200 Gems.

Intelligent Matchmaking of Low Population Regions

During low population times, the Matchmaking algorithm will look for players outside the preferred region, taking ping into consideration.
This will only occur when no match can be found due to low population.

Map Changes

Small adjustments to Jungle paths have been made to equalize time and distance between objectives on Order and Chaos sides of the map.
Both the Order Speed camp and the Chaos Damage camp see a change to their geometry and leash to shift the time it takes to reach the Mid Lane.
Players can no longer see into the camp from the Mid Lane.

Conquest Jungle Monster Changes

Fixed an issue where Jungle Monster HP scaled at double the scaling rate while dead
The scaling of Jungle Monsters has been adjusted to compensate. All jungle monsters have been adjusted to ensure they spawn at the same health they do in live
Since the early days of SMITE, Jungle Monsters have always scaled twice as fast while dead, making camps that were taken consistently tankier than those which were left alive. This has now been removed to keep the pace of the game and the toughness of the camps close. We are also increasing the Base Health per Minute that Jungle Monsters receive.
Jungle Mob Health Scaling over time decreased from our 1.85 multiplier to 1.75 multiplier.

_Season 4 Consumable Updates_

Rituals
“A new type of item comes to SMITE as a Consumable! The powerful Ritual Items are designed to enhance the late game experience of SMITE. When your build was finished, there were very few options for players to help end the game. Rituals will now provide way more options, but at a very high cost, especially since you only get one use per purchase. These items will allow skilled players to make truly amazing plays in the late game.”

Only usable after Level 10

Grouped with Potions of Might and Elixirs on a new “Late Game Consumables” tab

Chalices

“Another new Consumable enters SMITE, but these are for the early game. Chalices allow players to invest an initially large amount of Gold for a stack of Potions or Wards that can be refilled. These are priced appropriately to fit well into starting builds.”

They work like a stack of Potions
Duration is refreshed, not stacked, on multiple uses
Have a specified maximum charges
Stacks are refilled to full every time you return to base

_Potion of Physical Might

Relics have been renamed to their historical SMITE names and are also now all actually in reference to Relics, aka legendary objects. The larger new feature is Relic Upgrading! In Season 4 at any time in a match, you may pay 500 Gold to upgrade your Relic for a specified bonus. This adds a good bit of complexity to build order allows for more meaningful choices in selecting which Relics to use.”
