How to unlock the Grind Season achievement

    Ranked Season is the length of the Operation. There are 12 weeks in a Operation. Weeks start on the Tuesday of each week (not sure the time but looks like middle of day in EST). The achievement tracker doesn’t move. So have to win 1 rank match for 12 straight weeks

    Playing placement match count. Doesn’t matter what ranked game mode as long as you WIN once a week for what ever listed weeks are in the season (Operation). You can play 8 weeks straight on TDM and then do the next 4 on KOTH and it will still count.

    No idea if leaderboards affect your achievement but I don’t see why it should as the stats sometimes don’t register. I had that problem but still got it after a Week 12 on Operation 1.

    If it doesn’t unlock after the current Operation then either something didn’t count or glitched.

    Edit: Above solution is how operation 1 worked. It was changed several times for the operation length. You have to play till the end of the current operation. If it starts at 12 weeks then they change it to 17 weeks then you have to keep winning once a week till it officially is the final week or when the next operation starts.

    PainkillerJTLI don't know if this is glitched, but I was at 64% after Operation 5 and in Operation 6 it just continued until achievement popped. I definitely did not do 25 ranked wins in Operation 6. Also, it sometimes takes a day or so to register the wins.

    This Achievement its now much easier to get it you only need to win 25 ranked games in 1 Operation so you have more then enough time to grind it for me the best game mode you can get it the fastest way its 2vs2 gnasher i got in 1 day 15 wins you need to hope you get a good teammate! gl to grind it and remember! you need only the wins so you dont care if you bronze silver etc.

    Wykydtron93My tracker is stuck at 20%, no stats updated. Won way over 25 games in operation 6!

    SmeeDoggYeah the achievement is bugged at the moment. Nobody on TA has unlocked it since 13th April which is when the drop 2 patch hit. Been broken since then

    **EDIT** Fixed in Operation 7 patch but all progress was lost. Have to grind it out again

    LeiChatNot feeling the 2v2 advice but thanks for the rest of the guide.
    Gears matchmaking as good as ever, paired with someone where we both have a 70+ ping and the opposition are both sub 10 ping.

    Not a solution, but just a heads up if you already got progress towards this, you need to win again the same amount of games you already got, example I was at 24% that means I already got 6 games won but the season ended (operations are now called seasons since late October)so when I win 6 games my 7th game give me progress hope this helps anyone wondering why his tracker was stuck.
