'Seven Knights Re:BIRTH' (hereinafter SKRB) has seen a shift in the Advent Expedition rankings, a category long dominated by the 'Gongseongjeon' guild. The ones to dethrone them? None other than the 'Manwol' guild, who have been flirting with the top three for quite some time now. Meanwhile, 'Bulgul' managed to hold onto their Sunday crown in the Hell Castle. It seems the once-rigid leaderboard is finally showing some cracks. Let's dive into the details.

Manwol Ascends to the Top of the Advent Expedition

Here are the top 20 rankings for the SKRB Siege and Advent Expedition for the first week of May. We have a shift in the top three as 'Cheolge' and 'Sinwol' swapped places. As for the 'Senabusinessclub' and 'Silvertown', their momentum seems to have hit a wall, resulting in a dip in their standings—perhaps they just didn't fancy putting in the extra effort this time. On a brighter note, 'Akma' and 'MadDay' have made their debut at 10th and 11th, respectively, while 'Tinniping' made a cheeky 6-rank jump to finish in 9th.

In the final tally for the Advent Expedition, Manwol clinched the top spot for the very first time. Gongseongjeon was bumped down to 3rd, squeezed out by a resurgent Cheolge. It’s the culmination of a steady climb alongside their brother guild, Sinwol. Iluna’s own sibling guild, 'Iluna', also secured a 9th place finish, proving that the 'brother guild' strategy is paying off quite nicely. It will be interesting to see if Manwol can defend their throne in the next cycle.

Siege Rankers Reclaiming Personal Glory

Just when you thought the individual leaderboard dominance might be fading, the Siege rankers have kicked back into gear for the first week of May. Aside from Gyuri20 (Sinwol) and Inryeok (Cheolge), the top 1 to 8 spots were entirely occupied by Gongseongjeon members. Furthermore, every single player in the top 10 smashed through the 81 million point barrier—clearly, the arrival of Nata has shaken things up. We’ll be watching closely to see if they can maintain this iron grip on the top 10.

May Week 1 Daily Siege Results

A quick look at the daily SKRB Siege results for the first week of May: the top scores from Monday to Wednesday all soared past 240 million points. With the news of a 'Ruri' remake, we might even see these peak scores climb higher yet.

Bulgul successfully defended their Sunday lead from last week. Though their score saw a slight dip, the competition at Gongseongjeon and Cheolge also fell, allowing Bulgul to keep their seat with relative ease. While Gongseongjeon maintains control over the other days, Saturday is becoming a bit of a nail-biter as Sinwol closes the gap. Will Gongseongjeon fend them off, or will they lose Saturday as well?

This Week's Siege Picks

Nata’s arrival has sent Monday-Wednesday Siege scores into the stratosphere. Even in Wednesday’s 'Immortal Castle', switching from 'Son-O-Gong' to Nata resulted in a massive score jump. The meta team remains locked in: Nata, plus 'Lina - Biscuit - Ryan - Miho'. Since the Ruri remake update on April 30th, players are already busy experimenting—don't be surprised to see her return in the next report.

Ruri is tipped for a comeback specifically in the Immortal Castle. 'Ryan' carries a '3-target attack damage increase' passive similar to Nata's, but as per SKRB's system, only the higher value applies. This overlap creates inefficiencies, leading to speculation that players will swap out Nata for the newly revamped Ruri. We’ll see how that plays out in next week’s results.
