Ranked Map Rotation

since 2019-08-06

Battleground rotations were introduced in the patch notes from 2017-05-16
Originally applying to all game modes, the rotation has since been amended to only include Ranked play
The pool consists of 9 Battlegrounds which rotate ~~approximately 3 times per Ranked Season (or about once a month)~~ each Ranked Season
- Pool was reduced to 8 Battlegrounds on 2017-09-05, the patch following Hanamura's removal from all games modes to undergo changes on 2017-08-08
- Pool was increased back to 9 Battlegrounds on 2017-09-26, including the newly released Volskaya Foundry
See the original blog post on Battleground rotations for more information
