While the mini-set launched on February 14, 2023, it didn’t help with the number of Players reaching Legend in Standard & Wild. In total, almost the same amount reached Legend (81.6k compared to 81.4k)

Standard had 9% fewer players reach Legend (44.3k compared to 48.4k)

Wild had 13% fewer players get Legend (13.8k compared to 15.8k)

And Classic did its one thing and had 37% more players become Legend (23.5k compared to 17.1k) – Bots might have influenced that numbers.

In total, 3922 more players reached Legend (81.5k compared to 77.5k in the previous month).

Standard had 10% fewer players reach Legend (48.4k compared to 53.2k)

Wild had 13% more players who got Legend (15.8k compared to 13.9k)

Classic had 65% more players going to Legend (17k compared to 10k) – tho we have to add that Classic has a big problem with Bots, so I am unsure how vital their numbers are.
