We know players want more time to climb, so we've taken another look at the Vegas Open schedule:
๐๏ธ Ladder Snapshot moves to Sept 18 12:15am local server time (+12 days)
๐๏ธ Competitor Pass sales now start Sept 22
More time to climb, and you can still lock a spot in Tactician's Gauntlet: Vegas Qualifiers, Sept 11-13.
We're discussing what we can do to extend the amount of time everyone has to grind ladder before the Vegas Open snapshot. Full transparency, the updated set launch date does make it hard for us to move things around a ton without the Vegas Snapshot overlapping with other tournaments, but we probably have some options. We're evaluating everything and we'll get you all an update as soon as we can.
Geoff and Peter share updates on what to expect for the release of our next set, Enchanted Wilds:

Grueling 239 Games, 13.8% WR to Masters.
A step back from last set but learned that I hate climbing during an "unfun" patch. Will learn to be more diligent on studying even through bad patches.
163 Games, 18.4% WR To Masters
Almost half the games required to get to Masters than the last time I kept track.
Haven't been able to degen queue as much this set but the grind continues! Time to get lowest PR for games played to GM & Chall.
Ending the weekend climb #364 NA.
