I want to see how much ELO I would need to protect my gold-streak, Bioware pls.

If you're worried about the possible meltdown in the ranked community due to the possible veracity of rumours regarding a certain season's rewards being skipped, today is the perfect time to post it and then play dead during the weekend.

Not rlly. I think it is an informed guess. Bioware usually gives 1 month between tier announcements and end of season. If they announce next week the season will end either early june or late july which would put them at a postponed corona plagued season of 7 months long (extended 1 month past their target season length of 6 months to account for the unfortunate global pandemic that we are all facing).

Also Bioware has already rolled out and debutting their rewards and titles on PTS, through their influencers, and other platforms. This usually means that Bioware is in their final stages of figuring out rewards for the season.

I think the only variables that the devs are still trying to figure out is what to do about vote kick, the metrics on win requirements for next season, and how to incentivize ranked in future seasons.

Season end is scheduled June 16th I believe, so it should've come out already.

That's when 6.1.2 (or 6.2?) is scheduled, and that's supposed to end the season.

This was the dev's last post about 6.2: https://www.swtor.com/community/show...69#edit9834169

The devs mentioned June but did not give a specific date. Knowing Bioware its safe to say patch 6.2 will probably be at the end of June if not the beginning of July.

Double XP was conveniently extended to June 16th, that's why I was thinking that to be the patch / season end date. RIP if the season won't end on that day.
