Significantly increased PvP rating inflation for all rated PvP modes with emphasis on Battleground Blitz, Rated Battlegrounds, and Rated 3v3 Arena.
- Developers' notes: We've seen your feedback that achievable PvP ratings are not meeting expectations, so we're applying a significant increase to PvP rating inflation starting now for all rated PvP modes with emphasis on Battleground Blitz, Rated Battlegrounds, and Rated 3v3 Arena. As with past changes to inflation, this adjustment is intended to improve progression as the season continues and support healthier ladder movement. We'll continue monitoring rating distribution and make further adjustments as necessary. Thank you for your continued feedback and we'll see you on the battlefield!

Solo Shuffle and Battleground Blitz cutoffs for Galactic Legend, Galactic Marshal, and Galactic Warlord have been updated to the top 8 players for each specialization.
- Developers' notes: In order to better balance the Galactic Legend, Galactic Marshal, and Galactic Warlord awards across specializations, we are updating the cutoffs in Solo Shuffle and Battleground Blitz to guarantee these rewards for the top 8 players for each specialization. This should prevent the situation of some specializations having only a few Legend, Marshal, or Warlord titles and allows more players to gain these rewards.
