Last Sunday, amactus announced the introduction of Stratus Ranked. It is an individually scored pick-up game style league system. It all currently works through a new Discord server, which you can join by clicking here, or you can check out the announcement thread here. A big thank you to everyone who participated in making this happen!
At the end of March, the top player on the leaderboard will receive a free private server lasting a month. Good luck!

On March 17th, we welcomed ALM to the administration team to take on the lead role as head of development. Austin has worked incredibly hard on Operation Ares so far, and has dedicated countless hours to mentoring and overseeing our trial developers. If you have not already, please give him a warm welcome!
As you've read before, we will be awarding a private server to the highest ranking player in ranked at the end of the month. Who do you think it will be?
That's all for this time!
Thanks for reading this week's issue. See you all next time!
What a perfect issue!
As for the question, I think Hivlik will get the server.
