Battlequest Premium Ladder

Battlequest is our game mode with unique deckbuilding rules. Each Battlequest ladder has it's own rules so be sure to read up on them in detail below. The top ladder score holders will be rewarded with prizes.

Premium users will enjoy a 3x multiplier to the prize pool for a top finish.

This ladder features 1 ban which means each player bans 1 of the 9 classes which their opponent will not be able to play by typing the banned class in your private challenge lobby chat. The leftmost player in the challenge starts banning followed by the other player each banning 1 class at a time.

To shake up the meta and offer a unique deckbuilding challenge we introduce a set of banned cards (8 neutral and 3 for each class). None of the banned cards may be included in your starting deck or be played even if obtained by other means when competing in this ladder.

• Players with less than 25 challenges played in this ladder are not eligible for rewards
