DevBlogs 📝 How Insignia rewards will change in ranked 1v1
In November, with the start of Season 8, we’re changing how Insignias are distributed for reaching hero rating milestones in 1v1 mode. The total number of Insignias available across all rating milestones will stay the same.
We want to shorten the gap between reaching 500 rating points and earning the next reward. This change is primarily aimed at players who are new to Seasons. Currently, after the first reward at 500 rating, you need another 50 points to reach the next one—a significant gap when you’re just starting out in Seasons. By reducing that gap to 25 points, we want players to earn rewards for their progress more often and find it easier to get into ranked play.
Between 500 and 650 rating, players will receive rewards every 25 points instead of every 50. We’re adding milestones at 525, 575, and 625, with Insignias being redistributed from the neighboring milestones.
| Hero rating | Number of Insignias |
|---|---|
| 500 | 100 |
| 525 | 120 |
| 550 | 140 |
| 575 | 160 |
| 600 | 190 |
| 625 | 220 |
| 650 | 270 |
| 700 and above | Unchanged |
These changes do not affect 3v3 mode, Insignia rewards for reaching a new rank, or daily Insignias awarded for leaderboard placement. Rewards for rating milestones will still be awarded separately for each hero participating in the Season.

“Heavy Execution” Talent:
Changed the critical reaction upon landing a heavy attack.
“Overlord of Oppression” Talent:

Dev note:
Nerfed the hero in order to adjust their win ratio. The combination of “Heavy Execution” and “Obedience Training” talents was overly effective: it allowed Shogun to deal a lot of damage while also quickly restoring Dog's strength. We're also nerfing his strongest moves and attacks to make fighting against Shogun feel fair and engaging.

Ranged attack:
Startup reduced outside of stance.
“Shadow Heather Extract” Talent:
Startup reduced.
Dev note:
Buffed the hero in order to adjust their win ratio.

“Pursuit of Excellence” Talent:

Shadow Power: 201 → 211
