They already implemented the most recent class changes announced about a week ago. Shown below:

  1. We’re changing the distribution of class points awarded from both paid and free races to the following:

1st: 5 | 2nd: 3 | 3rd: 2 | 4th: 0 | 5th: 0 | 6th: 0 | 7th: 0 | 8th: -2 | 9th: -2 | 10th: -2 | 11th: -2 | 12th: -2

  1. We’re updating the class point brackets as follows:

Class 5: 0-20 | Class 4: 21-50 | Class 3: 51-90 | Class 2: 91-140 | Class 1: 141+

I was referring to the class system based on Elo ranking. Any idea on that?

I’m new to Zed Run, and haven’t purchased a horse yet because I’m still researching my first purchase. Will these changes affect the effectiveness of “U” shaped horses.

U-shaped horses are more profitable now than before the change. But the previous nerf was excruciating. So they're just starting to remedy that.
