For those new to Ladder Seasons, you might be wondering what happens to your Shared Stash loot once the current season ends.
Once Ladder Season 6 ends, all Ladder characters will be transferred to their respective non-ladder group. All items in that character group’s Shared Stash go into a new Withdraw Only set of Shared Stash tabs, denoted by a check marked Past box. Any items from Ladder Season 5 stored in the Withdraw Only tabs will be lost at this time. You will have all of Ladder Season 7 to withdraw any items you would like to keep from Season 6. When Ladder Season 7 ends, this withdraw only set of Stash Tabs will be overridden with any items in the Ladder Season 7 Shared Stash. Be sure to get any items out before then or they will be forever lost!
