Hello Commanders, Season one of 1v1 ranked has ended, so let us give our congratulations to [TNC] [Nik] NikolaMX, a player so humble he put his own name in a clan tag. Fighting off many worthy opponents he has dominated the Uber league, holding the #1 position for most of the season. An Invictus statue will be on its way to our deserving season 1 winner.

Season 2 2019-01-25 to 2019-04-25

Its season 2! All ranks have been reset; everything is up for grabs again. A new season needs new maps. As you know we introduced four new maps mid-way through the previous season, and theyll be carrying over to season two. But the rest of the maps have been taken out back and retired. Sleep well old maps, youve served your time. Replacing them are eleven brand new maps.

Season 2 Map Pool (15)

• Aquilaris (WPMarshall)
• Bulkhead (WPMarshall)
• Canyon (WPMarshall)
• Centax-3 (Grand Homie)
• Disparity (WPMarshall)
• Enfer (Grand Homie)
• Geonosis (Grand Homie)
• Lost Temple (WPMarshall)
• Lugaan (WPMarshall)
• Niflhel (Grand Homie)
• Riddler (WPMarshall)
• Singe (WPMarshall)
• Tartarus (Grand Homie)
• The Ardennes (Grand Homie)
• The Marne (Grand Homie)

New maps mean new strategies, and everyone is on an even footing because no one has had a chance to practice these before. We look forward to seeing what you make of them and hearing your thoughts on how they play. These maps will also be made available to play in custom lobbies in the near future.

Prizes!

Of course, what season is complete without prizes? And what could possibly top an Invictus Commander statue?
