定級賽後的段位將略微低於mmr的真實水平，
以下是美服PTR11月8日的補丁公告：
競技模式第三賽季即將開始
Competitive Play's second season will end on November 23 at 4PM PDT (November 24 at 0:00 UTC), and the third season will begin on November 30 at 4PM PDT (December 1 at 0:00 UTC). During the week-long off season, you'll still be able to queue for matches using the Competitive Play ruleset, but your skill rating will not be affected and no Competitive Points will be awarded.
譯文：競技模式第二賽季將於太平洋時間十一月二十三日下午四點結束(北京時間：11月24日上午8點)，加分將回歸正常。(暴雪承認第二賽季定級機製有問題 普遍偏高)
Developer Comments: When season 2 started, we had more players in the Gold and Platinum skill tiers than we originally intended. This meant that skill levels varied widely for players within those tiers, and some players were achieving inappropriately high rankings during their placement matches. These players typically began the season by having their skill rating adjusted downwards after their first few matches. For season 3, skill ratings will be slightly lower after your placement matches, allowing them to increase as the season begins. After you play enough matches, your skill rating changes will return to normal.

第二賽季競技點數獎勵
We've also made a few adjustments to the skill rating system for season 3. Players will be distributed more broadly across the skill tiers, which means that your season 3 rating will probably be lower than the previous season.
譯文：新賽季中我們對競技模式的評級係統做出了一些調整，我們發現黃金段位和鉑金段位的玩家比我們預想的要多很多(不符合正態分布)，那麽具體是什麽時候出呢?來看看99單機小編熊卜卜的守望先鋒競技模式第三賽季什麽時候開 開始時間一覽哈。他們在定級後的比賽中因而俯衝(遊戲體驗差)。玩家們將會獲得跟他們技術水平更加貼近的天梯分數，這意味著在同等段位中玩家水平差距很大(原來魚塘上不了分是暴雪的鍋!)，但不會變更你的天梯分數也不會有任何競技點數的獲得。但這也意味著新賽季的天梯分數會比以往賽季的分數低。在這七天中你可以通過季前賽的方式繼續使用競技模式進行比賽，(這項改動大幅提升定級後的玩家體驗)。在遊戲場數達到一定數量後，
在第三賽季中，新賽季將於11月三十日下午四點開啟(北京時間：12月1日上午8點)休賽期七天，同時許多玩家定級賽後獲得的段位過高，
守望先鋒新英雄黑影的版本更新後競技模式第三賽季即將來臨。從而讓玩家們在定級後可以取得一定的分數提升，
