This item has a bug in it that was being exploited. The bug should be fixed, and the item restored, in the next patch. 2) A hot fix is planned for Sept 30 that will fix a situation in which player's Rank (aka Elo score) is not being updated properly after some matches. After the fix is applied, we will also run a job to make sure everyone's proper score is restored, based on their full match history.
