Hey everyone,

Today we’ll be releasing the below update in combination with a day long event to celebrate Deceit’s third birthday! Players that join in with the deception on 03/03/2020 GMT will receive double XP and earn a new emblem from playing a game of Deceit. For the more dedicated deceivers we’ve got an extra emblem unlock that can also be unlocked, although you’ll have to work out how to earn it!

One final note before we move onto the patch notes, we’ll be resetting the season next Thursday (05/03/2020).
