Each month, players are chasing the prestigious title of Legend in Hearthstone. With the new ranked system, Legend players have never been so numerous on Hearthstone!

Hearthstone: The number of Legend players exploded

If you are an avid Hearthstone player, you have probably reached this achievement several times in your career.

Whether you are an aggressive player, playing easy and fast lists to play a maximum of matches or a combo player for whom nothing beats a fine strategy or a control deck player, calculating each of his turns to prevent the opponent from unrolling its game plan — reaching the famous Legend rank is the Holy Grail for all types of Hearthstone player.

With the new ranked system, it was expected to see more people reaching that rank — but that much increase remains quite impressive.

With more than 100,000 Legends players in Standard mode, the Chinese server has accomplished a feat!

The European server is not to be outdone, with at least more than 55,000 Legends players this month. 

The new ranked system is obviously responsible for such increase — but one cannot overlook the indirect impact of the Covid-19 which forced people to stay confined in most part of the world. Another potential reason is a certain revival of the interest in the game, whether with Battlegrounds or with the new class added to the game with Ashes of Outland.
