Season 13 will be archived today, starting the next ranked season 14, which in turn runs until June 4! If you are new to playing competitively, I highly recommend entering the ranked queue during a sale, when other new players are joining in. Outside of that, the regularly hosted NPC tournaments are the best entry point.
Speaking of which, aTastyT0ast has made a new community leaderboard specifically for tournaments:

llblaze.pro

Any player with at least 2 tournaments in the data set will show up in this list, allowing you to look up full ranking history, biggest upsets, win chances, compare players directly and more.

(instead of just one for the winner as usual) If you are new to the game, this tournament is a great way to dip your toes into playing competitively.

The second event we are sponsoring with $1000 this year is the community organized MACH 1 invitational! 24 of the greatest players, past and present, will battle it out on September 7 in a fully streamed event with interviews, antics, onions and merchandise.

The second qualifier last month resulted in a very special addition to the deck of player cards you'll be able to get: Two red Nitros won the top positions and are joining in with a set of connecting cards!

Event Merchandise

The community is pulling out all stops for this one, creating a variety of things including t-shirts, posters and the player trading cards - all of it available through store.hyhy.gg (the store will close 3 days after the tournament and all orders are then produced and shipped) Half of the profits will go to the tournament prize pool, the other half to the artist that designed the item. The trading card booster packs in particular will feature everyone on the packaging who also directly contributed over $5 to the prize pool.

Bonus Qualifier

Okay, we may have said the second qualifier last month was the last chance to enter. But nothing in life is absolute! One of the invited players had to drop out - and to replace them, there will be a bonus qualifier on August 24. Last last chance? Probably! The respective player card will be replaced as well!

The first two placements of this qualifier will not only win the two remaining slots of the MACH 1 invitational and thus a shot at the prize pool. The event is also accompanied by a set of physical player trading cards for each competitor, making this the last chance to become immortalized in the set.

Lethal League Blaze did so well at Combo Breaker last year, that our players were asked to be part of the All In Together Community Tournaments again this year. To support that we are giving a bit more this time, sponsoring the tournament with $1000. A part of this will cover the spectator passes of tournament organizer and main commentators. The rest goes towards the prize pot. Combo Breaker 2024 takes place at the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center near Chicago. This time on the weekend of May 24th 26th. To participate you will need at least a spectator badge for Combo Breaker 2024 and a registration for the tournament itself.

Onto the extension to this tournament: the Stadium Arcadian hosted by hyhy on March 30. As an intermediate to the unrestricted tournaments, this one has a limit of 500 Lethal League hours, but with one additional twist: At 24 entrants and above it will run a pools stage that splits players into a top and bottom bracket. This will give you both more matches to play as well as more opponents at a similar skill level. Great format, whether you've outgrown the 200 hour limit or aren't even close to reaching it! OH, and another heads up before the full steam event announcement drops: the Lethal League Blaze community was asked to return to Combo Breaker 2024 in May - so naturally they will. We are going to chip in again. Keep an eye out for that.

Hey hey! This one got away from me a little, so it may be too short notice for you to travel last minute - in that case I want you to tune into the stream at least! But I'm getting ahead of myself. The community is hosting a tournament at Combo Breaker next week, Sunday May 28. Two players had already committed a $350 pot bonus. We are rounding it up to $500. If you happen to be in the area that day (Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center near Chicago) and want to take part: All community tournaments only require a spectator pass, which is $30 for a day. Got that or already are a competitor at Combo Breaker? The signup for Blaze is over on the All In Together: Community Tournaments page. (signup may be closed while they arrange brackets for minimal conflicts - check again later, if you cannot sign up at the moment) The tournament will start at 4PM and the top 4 stream will begin around 6PM (the time this steam event is scheduled for) on IFCYipes. Now, to get a bit ahead of the curve and prepare you for what's to come before we post individual events about each, a list of other local tournaments this year:

• Hessen Crash XX, Frankfurt am Main - Germany, June 30th - July 2nd
• Fte 3: By the Sea, Pontins Camber Sands Holiday Park - UK, July 14th - 16th

HELLO! The European Blaze community is gathering for a local tournament at Hessen Crash in Bad Hersfeld, Germany on October 15. It's a side event, but with the amount of top players committed to travel and compete we decided to give it a push and sponsor it! That includes a 500 pot bonus, a trophy for first place and YinYin at the event all weekend with whatever merchandise he can carry there. If you ever wanted to meet and challenge top players like JawDrop, Cherry, Neerasure and many more, this is the place to be at. The tournament will be played on PCs. That means all types of input methods should work, but two keyboard players meeting may still pose a challenge. Be ready to use a backup in that case. Matches are planned to be streamed on twitch.tv/dawn_of_revival A competitor pass is 35 until Oktober 7, spectator entry is free. And if you want to convince someone interested in a different kind of cultural event to accompany you on a trip there, the town happens to be hosting the oldest German Volksfest in the very same week.

Long ago, when he was still in his early adulthood, Nitro spent his days doing odd jobs that needed muscle. One of these stints was fighting in the local wrestling league. In his biggest match to date he accidentally pulled off the mask of his opponent and an opportunistic thief made off with it mid-match. Nitro immediately stopped fighting and vowed to continue the fight only when he returned it. And he left and never returned. Some say he is still looking for the mask to finish that legendary match.

Additional Changes!

This update focuses on some upgrades under the hood. If you've had performance issues, randomly dropped inputs or your favourite peripheral outright not working, we might have you covered now.

updated Unity version to fix a memory leak This specifically stops the game from slowing down during the story mode at higher resolutions, but may improve performance elsewhere too! updated Rewired to the latest version This one brings improvements for how inputs are handled. Here is a highlight from the list: [quote]Fixed issue causing fast button taps to be missed at high input thread frequency and low frame rates.[/quote] fixed upside down story comics on Mac and Linux Your handstand is commendable, but no longer required to view the comics upright!

It's about time. And that time is in a week. The next DLC outfits are coming. The additional change list won't be as massive as last time, but still significant enough to warrant a new ranked season. (you can check them out early in the public-beta, the changelist is in our discord server!) That's right, you've got a week left to make your mark on a relatively short season 8!
[hr][/hr] Speaking of which, the community modding expert in chief MrGentle has created an excellent public leaderboard website: https://blazelb.xyz Unlike the steam front-end we've been using to archive previous seasons it is not limited to displaying the top 200 players and can instead fetch you the entire list. It even tracks daily rank and score movements. But here is the absolute cherry on top: It also exposes player statistics we never got around to properly present you ourselves. If the steam profile is public, you can view the win and play rates per character. Looking to fine tune your competitive game or learn about opponents in your next tournament?

When Jet caught her breath she was just outside of the burning hideout. Smoke was already filling the badly lit alleyway. Then it hit her; her trusty jetpack was still inside. Flames were spitting out of the doorway, it didn't look like she was able to go back in like this. She ran out to the street and saw the Shine City fire brigade setting up their gear. She pleaded to them to try and find the jetpack, to no avail. They sure weren't risking their lives for some 'toy'. Jet, not one to give up on a friend, smoothly zipped into one of their spare suits and jumped into the fire.

We ran into an issue with pivots on the latest release and picked that opportunity to improve a few things!

changes:

• pivots are fully working again
• you can no longer pivot during a powerup sequence with no character movement
• the keys to cycle through outfits are now E & T (to avoid conflict with the default steam overlay shortcut)
• the maximum ranked score was lifted (as players are matched by division and score inflation has effectively been slowed down)

[ 2020-12-03 15:59:31 CET ] [ Original post ]

The outfits for Grid win by a small but decisive margin! This one could truly have gone the other way, if just a few Merchranger supporters had picked Nitro instead. But it seems these outfits aren't Grid at all ...
Who is this then? Back when Grid entered Shine City in hopes of expanding System's territory, he decided to set up a power provider telemarketing scam company 'Quality Output'. It was not to last, because the Shine City Police quickly busted the operation. To his surprise, Grid was standing face to face with his long lost brother Volt, now 'agent Volt' of the police's High Charge Devastator Unit. The two were well matched and to Grid's advantage, the ensuing fight destroyed all evidence and caused a city wide blackout. [previewyoutube=1bT3VQM-cLQ;full][/previewyoutube] The alternate version of the Neopolis Devastator outfit is the Outback Devastator:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1431701/Lethal_League_Blaze__Neopolis_Devastator_outfit_for_Grid/

Additional Changes!

Agent Volt brings a few free extras for your convenience: Keyboard purists can now

• go back and forth through their outfits in the lobby with left and right shift
• ready, unready and start with the R key
• and finally say "Bring it!" with the 4 key on AZERTY layouts

And you can now hit Ctrl+C (or Command C) in a private lobby to copy a direct link to it.

• easily paste that into a group chat instead of inviting everyone individually
• share it to invite viewers, if you are streaming the game
• or with a tournament opponent you may not have any contact to on steam!

High up in a seemingly abandoned skyscraper, on an empty floor without entrance there stands a single large closet. In that closet hangs a contraption, something from a time Toxic would rather not think about. Using the data she had found on Latch, she delved into questionable arts and created an ivory automaton. As a product of her mindstate at the time it turned erratic and hostile. Now it's sealed away, set to activate if Toxic would ever be captured by the Shine City Police.

First and foremost improvements to Dust & Ashes' special:

• it is overall easier to control
• it is faster on the ground
• and it has more options from the air

On top of that, ground and wall movement has been improved for all characters. You can get a head start on the new ranked season by playing in the beta. Your achieved division will carry over into the live build. (you may need to join our discord to meet up with other players for that) For a more detailed change list, see the BETA announcement: https://steamcommunity.com/games/553310/announcements/detail/2899713886456543926 On Friday we will reveal the lore and identity of the DLC outfit for Latch in our discord. Be there if you want to know who or what that mysterious figure in the beta outfit showcase is!

Friday will have 4 different tournaments: You can compete with a partner in Lethal League Blaze Doubles, the previous game in Lethal League 1 Singles and Doubles and face off against multiple opponents each round in the Free For All tournament Latchball 3D Blast.

That wouldn't be Latch, would it? Help us investigate by joining the beta of the next update! Select the public-beta in your game properties and join our discord to give us feedback on the changes.

Changes we've made based on the latest feedback survey:

• Ashes moves twice as fast
• Ashes moves further the higher up you activate special
• Swapped pivot input from down to up
• Fixed parries turning invisible online
• Fixed the first run stop frame ignoring turn input
• Removed ability to special a ball remotely
• Added special activation effect to Nitro
• Gave Latch wall climb momentum on release
• Fixed first wall attach frames ignoring action inputs (Latch, Raptor, Switch, Toxic)
• Toxic attaches to the wall more easily
• Toxic swings away from the wall when attached to it
• Removed hitbox from placing a Toxic tag on the wall
• The Toxic tag no longer disappears when her parry is grabbed

In addition to that the beta already runs the next ranked season and your division will carry over once the update goes live. So jump in to get a head start!

Switch wins by a landslide (3.7k votes), outnumbering the combined votes for Nitro (1.4k) and Grid (1.6k). These two will see a rematch in November. Without further delay, here is the outfit you voted for! [previewyoutube=lDBPqPMeoX4;full][/previewyoutube] One hot summer Switch was fed up with cruising the same old streets and decided to go on a skating roadtrip. Of course, he first made a quick detour to go pick up some spare parts at the Citynetics factory. Immediately after entering a server room Switch tripped, fell and short circuited his motherboard into a full-on robo-hallucination trip. As the 'Mechranger' he traveled many worlds and saw the true name of things. He recounted his tales to Raptor and told him how Rex is the founder of citynetics and turned Latch into a cyborg. Raptor responded "What are you even talking about you can of beans?". The alternate version of the Insectoid Loneriding Mechranger outfit is the Galaxy's Edge Mechranger:

Finally releasing the Doombox outfits individually last week was a bit of a bumpy ride! Turns out granting the Doombox DLC to all existing Soundtrack owners made it impossible to purchase the new bundle (or the Soundtrack, when owning Doombox first).

Doombox Gigahertz Visualizer

You might be wondering how Doombox came in possession of that entity ... with his outfits now available as a standalone DLC, we have that story for you as well! After one of his many rampages Doombox woke up chained up in a brightly lit laboratory. Pretending to be in stand-by mode, he overheard the heated discussions of his captors. "It's still subject A1, it just fused with a boombox somehow. The energy signal is not unique, that's why you destroyed that lab in South Shine City instead". "We had to use the cannon!! There was no other way!". Doombox couldn't care less about them. He blasted his chains off and shattered all the glass in the room. A half-liquid entity dripped down on him from a canister labeled B1. That was the last thing he remembered. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1399791/Lethal_League_Blaze__Gigahertz_Visualizer_X_for_Doombox/ And if you want the full banging beats experience, we made a discounted bundle that includes both Doombox and Sonata outfits plus the Soundtrack. This comes out to the same price as already owning the Soundtrack and getting the Sonata DLC now! https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/16023/Soundtrack__Outfits_Bundle/

Community Survey

We are through all of the latest survey input! If you remember the result charts from the previous two rounds, here is the one from this round in the same format. It got a bit crowded! The biggest takeaways compared to February are:

• Candyman has dropped, but is still considered the best
• Grid has recovered from last place
• Dust and Ashes have made the largest drop for any character and are now considered last

We had less total votes, but a lot more text submissions and the first result of that is already apart of the game: the improved matchmaking! You can see more detailed results and answers under #BlazeSurveyResponse and talk with other players about them on our discord:

• added a countdown when a ranked lobby of a different division is available
  • the accepted difference expands by one division every 3 seconds
  • eventually matches up even with a maximum difference
• removed rank down buffers from divisions 7 to 1
• players are only entered onto the leaderboard when they enter ranked mode

[ 2020-08-20 15:49:45 CET ] [ Original post ]

Season 6 has begun and we are bringing a few changes for it next week!

better matchmaking

A matchmaking timer will create more opportunity to find better matching opponents. If you enter ranked mode and get a countdown, that means there is a player available that doesn't have the same division as you. The smaller the difference, the earlier you get matched up with them.

rank down buffer limited to division 8

It was possible to exploit the buffer that requires you to lose two times before going down a division for progressing through the ranks. This also generated an excess amount of points on the board. To combat both of these issues, the buffer is now limited to division 8. Season 6 may last longer than the previous ones as a result.

community tournaments

There are several community tournaments lined up on multiple platforms, here are the ones played on Steam: The Swingbait Special, a global tournament happening in a few hours. The Blaze vs. LL1, a global tournament happening in a week - where the losers bracket is played in the first Lethal League game! It has a prize pool tied to the number of entrants and a player bounty. And the Buntfest 2020 at the end of the month, a European tournament with a prize pool of 100 and a bonus prize for the best corpse juggle during the tournament stream. If you want to join any of the tournaments, they are all happening on discord:

Here is a refresher of everything to look forward to when the Medical Mashup hits next week!

The DLC

Already promised away as a prize to the top 3 of the first Quarantined Rapport (the largest global Lethal League tournament to date!), the two Toxic DLC outfits will become available for purchase.

• The Nuclear Nourishment colorway. A dark nurse themed outfit with a biohazard spinal fluid injection arm.
• The N. N. Second Opinion colorway. A cute twist on the Nuclear Nourishment outfit, but the needles go just as deep.

The two winners of the North American and European Quarantined Rapport tournament today will receive this on top of their cash prize. https://steamcommunity.com/games/553310/announcements/detail/2234295625136848743

The Changelist

Characters

• Grid bunts out of special again
• Candyman's special meter maxes out at 1 during a candy chain
• Candyballs now match the Candyman outfit
• Jet can hover with taunt at any jump height

Options

• New competitive mode in private lobbies using default 1 on 1 options
• New HP options (off, 50%, 75%, 100%, 125%, 150%, 175%, 200%)
• New powerup option to select an individual powerup to play with
• New video option to stop camera movement

Stages

• The pyrotechnics have moved further away from the Paradise Field stadium cage
• All the Retro stages are available online
• The Retro stages after City Streets are easier to unlock
• New random retro stage option to unlock
• All visual issues on Retro stages are fixed
• Retro stages only appear in competitive or ranked, if both players select one

Ranked Season 4

With the release of this update we are also moving into a new ranked season. The feedback for the season 3 progression has been overall positive with a single issue: The most dedicated players have all maxed out by now. That means they haven't just reached the highest 3 star first division, but the absolute maximum ranking score! To account for that the next season will have a much sharper ramp for the highest divisions and we may start to swap into new seasons more frequently outside of game updates.

Latch Plush

This magnificent beast will become available for purchase soon. The stock is limited and we will share it on our discord server first!

Having found no trace of such a patient while going through the records, she instead found out about certain classified medical experiments. She didn't care much about the subject as she did for the high tech equipment they had made for it that was supposedly stashed away in an underground South Shine City facility. In between vats filled with spinal cords that didn't seem to be of mammalian origin, she found what she was looking for. Gear for a special occasion."

[previewyoutube=duvtl_JHSZY;full][/previewyoutube] What got him wrapped up like that? Read on: When Dice was caught by the Shine City Police in the Sewage Facility he was forced to make his escape by dropping straight down into the pipes. Now, the Sewage Facility doesnt just contain simple waste water. Full of unspeakable toxins and experimental bacteria, Dice soon lost consciousness. Some time passed and in a stroke of luck, Latch detected his lifeless body on his Robo-Subs sonar. While in Latchs care, Dice bandaged his own diseased skin and quickly fled into the darkness as if possessed by some primal instinct. He was spotted destroying his long time rival Doombox in a match not long after. The alternate cursed version of the Late Stage Illmatic is the Lethal Infection colorway:

Community Survey

We've been polling you on your opinions of Lethal League Blaze and character balance for over a year now. It's time to share some results! Since community opinions aren't unanimous and the generated tier list has become even more crowded than before, we picked a format that reflects just how much agreement each placement has.
Normal distribution peaks for each characters placement between best and worst, cropped to the relevant range of good and average the higher and sharper the peak, the more agreement there is! What's the verdict? As numbers alone don't paint the whole picture, we looked through all text submissions as well (you can read some public responses here) and have already decided on two balance changes for an upcoming patch:

• Grid is getting his bunt out of special back
• Candyman will only gain 1 special bar from chaining the candyball

There are other changes to come. Expect more info when the Dice outfits are released!
As a bonus, this is the same chart using data from a year ago.

Rev your engine! The next DLC outfit is here! [previewyoutube=Jt8Hsmh4Zao;full][/previewyoutube] And it comes with a story: "In an attempt to find out more about his past, Raptor tracked a piece of Rex Works equipment back to Citynetics, Shine City's biggest construction company. After infiltrating the Citynetics factory with the help of Switch, he locked himself in one of the higher offices. Scrambling through some important documents, he noticed the names of the board directors. Reginald, Edgar and Xavier Saur. A loud bang erupted from the door. The guards had him cornered. Having lost his bat along the way, Raptor grabbed what gear he could find and mowed himself through the door."
As usual the pack has two variants: - The Heavyduty R. Evolution colorway. A bright overall with warning sign colors. - The Nightmare Survivalist colorway. A fever dream inspired monster look.

Hellooo Mama The Shadow Surge Update is live! Once you boot up that sweet LLB, the new character Dust & Ashes is unlocked straight away! But before you do, listen up for the latest in Shine City.
Dust & Ashes Sentenced to death and hanged. In his final moment he was hit by lightning. The word 'Dust' echoed in his mind as he was thrown into a state of limbo between life and death. His shadow was split from his body and turned into an entity called Ashes. Dust carries with him a watch that stopped on the exact time of his execution.
Dust has some spicy angles, an asynchronous special using Ashes and a gameplay mechanic that allows him to float around the stage. Try holding his taunt for some slick stylo.

Lethal League Blaze at Heat Wave 3

We are sponsoring the tournament at Heat Wave 3 in Arizona this weekend with $300, which brings the total pot bonus up to $400! At the time of writing, sign ups are at 33 players. That makes this the second largest local Lethal League Blaze tournament after stunfest! If you cannot make it there yourself, the live stream is scheduled for 5 PM MST on Saturday October 19 at twitch.tv/azrivalsofaether with Dair Productions casting it.

We have reworked all character models and stages, tweaked visuals and drove over the code with a bulldozer a couple of times to vastly improve performance on Nintendo Switch in both docked and handheld mode. A 1v1 matchmaking mode is added for the competitively minded among a myriad of other fixes. Heres the full list:

• Improved performance
• Added 1v1 online mode
• Fixed certain un-unlockable outfits
• Fixed memory leaks
• Higher resolution for docked mode
• Correct system language on first start
• Character model fixes
• Fixed unnecessary server logouts

Tokyo Game Show trip

Part of the team just returned from a trip to Japan. Showing Blaze at Tokyo Game Show and being there while the boxed version released in stores was a blast! Turns out that the Japanese fans are just as hyped up as the fans from everywhere else. The team got showered with gifts, hosted a tournament at the Dutch Embassy, did interviews and had an idol group play our game (peak Japanese right there). We even bought our own game too!
Physical releases are still pretty relevant in the land of the rising sun and Dion has never hidden the fact that he gets a lot of inspiration from Japanese creators. For these reasons it made sense to do a Japan-exclusive special edition for Switch and PS4. However, since the language can be switched ingame and theyre both region free, you can still buy the box from abroad, get the goodies and play it as you would normally. It contains the game, a sticker, an artbooklet and a little Candyman keychain. Id say its a must for collectors.

The Shadow Surge

This other upcoming uptown update will bring along the optimizations from the Nintendo Switch patch WITH of course the boyest of boys, Dust & Ashes. They will, like the rest of the cast, have alternate outfits to unlock and were happy to tease one of them today!

Well well, look who decided to show up...
Straight from the hereafter, it's Dust & Ashes Sentenced to death and hanged. In his final moment he was hit by lightning. The word 'Dust' echoed in his mind as he was thrown into a state of limbo between life and death. His shadow was split from his body and turned into an entity called Ashes. Dust carries with him a watch that stopped on the exact time of his execution. https://youtu.be/cs0jFDsxwhg Dust & Ashes is going to join the stacked roster of Lethal League Blaze, no charge!
The Shadow Surge Update The boyos are not yet fully assembled yet, so you'll have to wait for the 'Shadow Surge' update to drop before you can start playing with them. We'll be showing more stuff that we'll add in that update in the coming weeks. This will include the changes and optimizations we made for the console version of the game, which means the game will run better on Steam as well (but we have a good hunch that existing mods will break and need a workaround).
Speaking of consoles, when can they expect the Shadow Surge update? Due to the strict patching guidelines on game consoles it won't be simultaneous. The Nintendo Switch version is still scheduled to get the optimizations patch first after all! Poster Pack

Looking at the official soundtrack on Steam we figured it needed something extra. And who else than Doombox to spice up any album?
As the first time we do a kind of exclusive outfit, it needed to be something special. So we made it that both variations have visualizers that respond to the live sound in the game. Here's how it looks: https://youtu.be/2juyQvy8VQM
Gigahertz Visualizer X and Gigahertz Visualizer Z are available now for you to pick online and offline if you have the Lethal League Blaze - Soundtrack DLC in your library. The Bundle

This will give you everything that available so far at a 15% discount. Mini Breakdown: - Fixed that the CPU in the Story Mode would sometimes refuse to use a Power up - Added Gigahertz Visualizer X - Added Gigahertz Visualizer Z Reptile Hideout Updates There is a new channel in the official Discord server, Reptile Hideout! #how-to-blaze Whether for yourself or getting someone else on board, this channel has tutorial videos, communities and more for our latest game, Lethal League Blaze. Use the pinned messages to easily navigate it. Our most dedicated ballers have already been using a bunch of new self assignable server roles for a while. But it's about time to give them a wider shout: We've got a new role to pin and ping @Events - never miss out on the happenings again! We've got manual match making roles for @Lethal League and @Blaze. Pick up one of these and ping it to find players outside of the match making queues for the respective game.

Modding On to the BIG modding news: we've found a way modders can modify the character models and throw 'em ingame without too much hassle. Our own Nilsuke is making a guide and although it's not finished yet, but you can already download the official modding package containing all the character models with bones usable for model swapping so you can get going. http://lethalleagueblaze.com/charactermodels/LLB_Character_Models.zip For now, be aware that every bone should influence at least one part of the model. This makes it harder to do full model swaps. We will probably find something for this in the future. Here are some examples of things you can do already:
