Colosseum Season 2
Colosseum PTM Rankings Season 1 was a HUGE success. We had thousands of characters that joined and over 14,000 matches played. The SR algorithm was also impressive.
We've made some improvements to Season 2 based on feedback and we're excited to be kicking off Season 2 soon. Future seasons will not have such a long off-season.
