A new patch has been released for TowerWars, including:Check out the details below:We deployed a new ranking system and a matchmaking system when you join a game. Here is how it works:There's a total of 28 ranks, 1 rank for all monsters in the game. Everyone starts as a SilverFish and can go up to the highest rank, Death Rider!To progress from one rank to another, you need to get stars. You get stars by playing the game and the change in your stars will depend to your place at the end of the game:First place: +3 starsSecond place: +1 starThird place: +0 stars4th to 6th: -1 starYou can not lose any stars before reaching the Wolf rank (rank 23).From rank 18 and above, the first place only gains +2 stars.Death Rider is the last available rank and has no stars limit!Whenever a player joins a game, the system will only queue players of similar rank. If it can't find any players, the range will quickly increase until the match is full.In Team Mode, however, teams will be matched around the average level of their party.
