Legends Arise on the Leaderboard: Official Announcement of Diablo 4's Competitive Ranking System

Diablo IV fans, get ready to showcase your skills and climb to the top! Blizzard has just announced the highly-anticipated Leaderboard Legends contest, which will run from March 19th to April 2nd. This is an exciting opportunity for players to prove themselves and earn some amazing rewards. While some details were teased during the recent Campfire Chat, we now have the full set of rules and prizes.

What is the Leaderboard Legends Contest?

The Leaderboard Legends contest is a chance for players to leave their mark in the world of Diablo IV. Starting on March 19th, participants will compete to secure the top spot on each ladder. If you manage to reach the absolute highest position on any ladder during the contest period and meet the eligibility criteria outlined in the Official Rules, you will receive a personalized, custom autographed poster from the talented artist, Micah Ulrich.

"Rise, wanderer. Starting on March 19th, sealing your legacy in the absolute highest spot of each Ladder will earn you the ultimate spoil of war."

How Does It Work?

The contest will run for two full weekly rotations of the Gauntlet. At the end of each week, specifically on Tuesday at 8 a.m. PT, the true masters who have secured the top positions in the Gauntlet will be declared the winners. This means that you have multiple chances to prove your skills and claim glory.

"Only true masters who stand at the top of the Gauntlet at the end of each week (Tuesday, 8 a.m. PT) will lay claim to the glory of these coveted spoils."

• Solo and Multiplayer Winners

For Solo Ladders, each week will crown one winner per solo class ladder, divided into Normal and Hardcore characters. If you prefer to fight alongside others, don't worry! There will also be 18 total multiplayer winners per week, covering both Hardcore and Normal difficulties. This includes winners from pairs, 3-player, and 4-player groups, each receiving a special print to commemorate their achievement.

Final Thoughts

The Leaderboard Legends contest is an excellent opportunity for players to prove themselves and leave a lasting mark on the Diablo IV community. Climb to the top of the Gauntlet, secure your place as a true legend, and let the custom art piece proudly display your Battle.net ID for the world to see. Remember, the contest begins on March 19th, so sharpen your blades, hone your skills, and may the best Diablo IV player emerge victorious!
