To summarize what rewards (portraits, dance animations, unit skins and decals) we will get per level and how many experience need to reach each level, I've decided to create a simply picture which displays what rewards will be for every level you reach per race.

Holy crap some amazing portraits in there, especially the female terrans <3

I hope they will add more level in another patch and maybe fill up the ones without rewards, (cause it seems to be a bit strange and random to have no reward every 6th level).

Thanks for this makes me look forward to spamming HOTS games.

Edit: Look at the cute widow mine, I think I've fallen in love :3

I guess it's the level 11 one. Although its "cuteness" is subjective at best.

All new rewards will be available 12th March with HOTS release

Also you can't level up in WOL, it's available only for HOTS

So how is this leveling system different from the wol system where u get portraits for x wins? I guess you do get exp for losing but its not much so i dont see much difference, maybe save 10-20 games for max level i guess.

The difference is that instead cheeses you need to play long macro games to get more experience. If games will be short so you will not be able to produce/kill a lot which will result in less experience at the end of game

So does the number of xp for each level differ compared to the beta version? In beta you max out on levels very fast.

The difference with the leveling system in HotS is that you get experience based on resources mined, united killed, etc., meaning that you will also gain experience from losing games, just not as much. This is to deter people from farming portraits by cheesing every single game, as the amount of wins is no longer a factor. For example: let's say you 6 pooled 5 games in a row, and each game lasts 6 minutes. You would probably gain the same amount of experience from playing a 30 minute long macro game.

The bad thing is that it's similar to 90-100 macro-games as each race to reach maximum level.

I prefer to see doubled amount of experience needed for each level. It will be longer to level up than now, but shorter and require less time, than 1k wins for Dark Voice and similar achievements/portraits

No love for the likes of us ;_;

What the heck is #8 Terran?

My favorite tier is the supply unit models for all 3 races.

SoK decal as last terran decal is kind of bleh :S The other races get two completely new decals and terran's is like a reused one.
