Season 1 opens 15 September

PK League is the world's first Old School esports server: ranked ladders in three build brackets, tournaments on a published clock, and a season that closes on a UTC boundary and pays out against your tier. Season 1 opens 15 September 2026 at 18:00 UTC.

Ten placement fights seed your rating. Eight divisions run from Bronze to Dragon, and crossing a tier ceiling promotes immediately. Rated duels and Wilderness kills both move Elo, and every rating move is auditable — no RNG anywhere in the ranking.

Brackets are read at the moment of the kill: Pure below 95, Med 95–112, Main 113 and above. A Pure and a Main standing on the same tile are on different boards.
