is kicking off its , which means all sorts of cosmetics, and a nice helping of pretty arenas to get "Good Job!" spammed at you in. To celebrate, Sloclap's made the game free to play for a long weekend—or until September 29—on . There's also a 20% discount until the same date.
Which means new blood and a livelier matchmaking queue. And that puts me in a precarious situation, folks, because is also out and I'm very interested in that as well. Sometimes the games I'm torn between are very similar; this is not one of those times.
There's also a 3v3 ranked matchmaking mode—though I'm not entirely sure this was the play. There's no current option to queue for both 3v3s and 5v5s at the same time, meaning you're gonna be splitting your playerbase in two.

I can think of a couple solutions to this—making it the first to two/three goals is one, but I also reckon you could stand to make the arena a touch smaller. That might be a tall ask given how the (cool as ever) background screens work, but as it stands 3v3 feels dead in the water unless you just, like, really hate passing to people.
Still, given the game's free until Tuesday? This [[link]] is a solid time to get stuck back in. Unless you're helping Melinoë exact her revenge in the underworld, in which case you'll need to clone yourself so you can play both games as much as you want to. Maybe a third clone for like, doing dishes. And a fourth one for seeing friends. Can games stop coming out for a bit, please?
