Are You Ready !?

다시 한번 즐길 준비가 되셨나요 !?”

Korean Participants will be decided in August, and it looks like the actual tournament will take place in October. (From what I saw).

Naver Blog.

Completed on the day of maintenance, as soon as I got up. Now this is progress.

Here are the latest NA Updates that rolled out the teaser for Polaris, as well as a special event for everyone’s favorite raccoon.

May I also point out it looks like you can stack Critical even higher after this event. (Wear Circlet, Wings, Stompers for the added Critical Effect while keeping old shields on).
