Diablo 4 Players Claim Inaccurate List of Hardcore Contest Winners

[Keith Stawarz]

Diablo 4 hardcore players have cast doubt on the authenticity of Blizzard's list of the top 1,000 hardcore players who reached level 100 for the first time. Blizzard did not offer a release season and leaderboard for Diablo 4 Hardcore mode, instead opting to run a contest to reach level 100. It is required to reach 100 hardcore characters and then submit their achievements on Twitter. However, the results Blizzard has now released appear to be missing dozens of Diablo 4 players who have successfully completed the task. Players can prepare enough Diablo IV Gold in the game.

 

In May, Blizzard first announced the launch contest for the Hardcore version of Diablo 4. The first 1,000 hardcore players to upgrade all the way to Diablo 4's level 100 cap will not only receive official recognition from Blizzard, but their names will also be engraved on the villainous Lilith statue on the studio's campus. Blizzard has since shared the list of the first 1,000 players to reach level 100 in Diablo 4's hardcore mode. That's where the problems begin.

 

With the official release of Blizzard's list of the first 1,000 hardcore players to reach level 100 in Diablo 4, many players who were confident they would be on the list found their names ignored. A Reddit post on the Diablo 4 sub-section shared evidence that they completed all of the expected tasks on Blizzard's list, but they were not included. They said they had no reason to believe they should have been left out, but there was no way to rectify the situation other than to raise the issue in the Diablo 4 community.

 

However, after the Reddit post went live, it became clear that there are many Diablo 4 hardcore players facing the exact same situation. Over 25 different Diablo 4 players shared evidence of completing the quest, but they were left off Blizzard's list. Twitch host Asmongold even researched the topic in a recent livestream, but couldn't figure out how many people were left out.

 

The situation is odd, to say the least. There are many theories as to why so many people were left off the list. Theories include players being from banned areas, having ties to Blizzard employees, having been included in alphas, having inappropriate character names, or possibly being blocked by Blizzard employees collecting names on Twitter. Considering how many Diablo 4 players have been excluded from the list, none of these theories seem to hold water.

 

At this time, Blizzard has yet to make an official comment on the missing names from the list. For now, it's focused on revealing details about Diablo 4's upcoming first season, "Season of Evil," which will launch on July 20. See eanews.top for more details on the game guide.
