Hello, fellow jousters!

We on the dev team have a strong fondness for the Season 3 map as well, and as was mentioned in Update Notes - we will be looking to bring it back eventually. We cannot reveal exactly when, but its something we definitely plan to do.

However, we are well past the point of "instead" - as used in OP's Title

Classic Joust is going live with Morgan Le Fay in 8.6. The Update is all packaged up and shipped. Its happening. Its likely going to be the default for a few months.

The balance changes to Classic Joust are quite significant, and a lot of the complaints seem to be overlooking them. Many content creators have taken a look at the map and noticed the difference. XP/Gold gain feels way better, turtling is significantly harder.

good lick and have fun in your 3v3s and 1v1s, i might even get matched up against you :)
