The Banners Fall Update is here, and along with it comes Ranked Season 7, Capture the Flag as an LTM Realm, and a Flashback Event Pass allows players to revisit some old favorites!

##### Ranked Season 7

For this year’s Ranked skin, we wanted to pay homage to our legacy by returning to one of our older Champions as well as our roots as a game. Ultimatium Fernando hearkens from another Realm, one where combat is forged in a Battleground of Gods. Veteran Paladins players will know God of War Fernando well, who was based on the original Ares model in SMITE. This skin is instead based on Ares’ updated looks and uses his voice as he fights new battles in this unfamiliar land. We also made his effects and his weapon to truly feel like a new god has joined the likes of Jenos and Io. We hope players enjoy him alongside aim assist and MM changes made specifically to benefit our competitive environment!

##### Flashback Event Pass: Beat Botz

Players have often requested a way to revisit older Battle & Event Pass themes, so presenting Flashback Event Passes! This update’s Event Pass will be revisiting two of the earliest Battle Pass themes: Remix & Battlesuit. The Beat Botz Flashback Event Pass will offer 5 of the exclusive skins from those themes, as well as many of the cosmetics players originally earned through those passes. The goal of this is to offer players a much more affordable way to earn these contents through the EP while we work on the next original Event Pass releasing next update. Veteran players need not fret, rolling the chests within this pass will reward for those who own everything enough Crystals that if you own everything, you earn more Crystals than you spend.
