We’re giving Buna Byte CTF a new identity. πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ή


Today, we’re introducing the new Buna Byte CTF Ranking System.

Instead of the usual Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Diamond ranks, players will rise through a progression inspired by Ethiopian historical military titles.


From:


αŒ“αŠ•α‹³αˆͺ β€” Gwandari

to

አαˆ₯ር αŠ αˆˆα‰ƒ β€” Asir Aleqa

αˆƒαˆαˆ³ αŠ αˆˆα‰ƒ β€” Hamsa Aleqa

αˆ»αˆˆα‰ƒ β€” Shalaqa

αŠα‰³α‹αˆ«αˆͺ β€” Fitawrari

α‹°αŒƒα‹αˆ›α‰½ β€” Dejazmatch


and ultimately…


ራሡ β€” Ras


Each rank represents another step in your journey as you solve challenges, earn points, and prove your skills.


Solve. Earn. Rise.
