Starcraft 2 news » 2017 Ladder Season 1 Begins

The first Season of this year’s StarCraft II league play has begun! Bonus pools and standings have been reset, and 2016 Season 6 milestones have been awarded. You can take a look at your results for the past Season by visiting the "Ladder" section of your character profile.

Season 1 introduces new maps to the 1v1 and team map pool. Be sure to check out this guide for more details before you press the "Find Match" button in the game.

We’ve also applied a free character name change to all accounts that do not have one available. Remember, character name changes do not stack (you can only have one free name change at a time).

Good luck, commanders — and have fun!
