Ranked battles. Reduced the allowable spread between players’ leagues in fireteams and teams.

Now, in the matchmaking system, leagues are divided into two parts: the first part is in the range from rank V to III, and the second is from rank II to I. Restrictions have been introduced for fireteams: players can form a fireteam if they are no further than in adjacent parts of leagues. This rule applies to all leagues except the Diamond. The Diamond League is inseparable.

— When participating in Ranked Battles alone or as part of a fireteam, where the maximum rating spread does not go beyond one part of the league, you can search among players by the current and neighboring parts of the league.
— In the case of searching for a game as part of one fireteam, where all players are within the adjacent parts of the same league, a search is available among players throughout the current league. Also, if the players in the fireteam are in neighboring parts of different leagues, they can only search in these parts of the leagues.
