To what ends is for you to decide, Nephalem. Power from the days of yore rests silently across Sanctuary, waiting to be uncovered once more. The latest season of Diablo 3 has arrived! Check out everything that's playable right now in the notes below. This is the only thing Blizzard had to say about the whole incident via its Diablo 3 Community Manager Kauza: Thus, the rankings have had a complete overhaul and it was quite a smart move to conduct these banwaves near the end of the Season. The most telling statistic for the whole situation is that half of the top 10 players across all NA leaderboards got banned. Currently, almost all 4-man teams in the respective leaderboard seem to have only one member - in most regions! The question is raised of whether all team members should be banned you can find a relevant conversation on Reddit. The biggest amount of cheating seemed to have happened in the group rankings - especially the 4-man groups.

Some people have theorised that the banwaves might have been retroactive, meaning that they punished people for cheating in previous Seasons.Īs the official and third-party leadeboards by sites, like DiabloProgress and DiabloRank, are trying to update their rankings, it's difficult to estimate the actual extent of the effect the banwaves. Even though there were no complaints for the first two banwaves, a lot of threads popped up in the official forums, social media and various other sites with complaints about wrongful suspensions.

As we've already said, the targets were mainly users of hud software or macros (for example, by using a Razer mouse). The third banwave was the most controversial. On balance, you can see the results of the third banwave in the NA (again by Garfm) and in Europe (by Redditor Alexander110). Wudijo had stated in the video of his Demon Hunter record that he is done with Season 5 and after the ban it is highly unlikely that he can catch up and beat his own record. However, merely a day afterwards (on April 10), the bomb dropped: Wudijo, who also held multiple fist spots in various categories in both Softcore and Hardcore, fell victim to the third banwave.
