Pick rates, two plans, referrals and three new languages

Pick rates for every weapon, trait, tool and weapon pair is open to everyone. Supporter plans come down to Contractor and Banisher, sell for up to 12 months and get a new payment method. The site now reads in German, French and Spanish.

Pick rates

The Pick rates menu in the header opens four boards: Weapons, Traits, Gear (tools, consumables and tarot cards) and Builds, the weapon pairs hunters bring.

Each board covers one season and shows how often an item is picked, the average MMR of the hunters who carry it and how they fare with it. The figures come from the matches we rebuild for hunters who share their match history.

The Weapons board: filters for MMR stars, hunter level and team size, the season's match count, and a strip of weapons led by the LeMat

Narrow any board to certain MMR stars, a hunter level or a team size, and switch between Bounty and Clash. Traits and gear show their edge: how much more often their carriers survive than hunters of the same level.

An item's page lists what hunters carry with it more often than usual, and a build's page shows its typical kit down to the ammo.

Every figure is explained in the Pick rates guide.

Two plans: Contractor and Banisher

On the subscription page, Legend and Overlay fold into Banisher, which keeps its price and now carries everything Legend had: the OBS overlay, the Discord bot that assigns roles on your server, your stream link next to your name and a spot on the Online tab. Contractor gets faster profile updates too.

You can switch between them at any time: you pay for the new plan, and the unused part of the old one is refunded if your payment method supports refunds. A confirmation shows what you pay and what comes back before anything is charged.

The two plans on the subscription page: Contractor and Banisher, with 6- and 12-month options at 20% and 40% off and the Try 3 days free button under Banisher

The free 5-day overlay demo becomes a free 3-day Banisher trial: press Try 3 days free on the Banisher card.

If you already had a plan:

  • Legend: you're on Banisher now. The time you had left is recounted at Banisher's lower price, so it grows, and renewals charge the Banisher price. If you paid for Legend in the last 30 days, you get two extra months on top
  • Overlay: you're on Banisher for the time you have left, and an automatic renewal keeps the price you signed up at. You stay off the Supporters tab unless you tick Show on the Supporters tab on your account's Subscription tab

Pay for 6 or 12 months

Both plans now sell for 6 months at 20% off and 12 months at 40% off, as well as month by month. Pick the period at the top of the subscription page.

A card subscription renews for the period you picked, at its price. Buying more of the plan you already have adds the new period to the time you have left. Any card payment can be refunded within 24 hours, whatever its period.

Card payments outside Russia and China

Pick Card on the subscription page to pay through Lava.top in US dollars. The plan renews until you cancel it in your Account.

Invite a friend and you both get Banisher

Your account page has a Referrals section with your personal code and a link to share. When a hunter signs in to the Ledger for the first time with your code, you both get two days of full Banisher access. Each new friend adds two more days, with no limit.

The Referrals section: the rule, the code with a Copy button, the share link and "2 hunters joined with your code"

Your link fills the code in for them. Only a Steam account's very first sign-in counts. The rest is in the referrals guide.

German, French and Spanish

The Bayou Ledger and the Bayou Index now read in German, French and Spanish, as well as English, Russian and Chinese. Pick one in the language menu at the top right. A first visit from Germany, Austria, France, Spain or Spanish-speaking Latin America opens in that language, and game items carry the names the game itself uses.

The Ledger's home page in German: the header, the title "Das Bayou-Register", the news panel and the community event

In these three languages, docs and news show the English text for now. Any language you picked before has been reset, so pick yours again if the site opens in the wrong one.

Past matches of the day

Click the date on the home page's Match of the day to open any featured match from the last 30 days. Only days that have one are listed, newest first.
