Ranked Match
In Ranked Match, automatic matchmaking is used to allow players of similar ability to compete against one another.
- Ranking System
Ranks are divided into UNRANKED, D, C, B, A and S. Players can aim for promotion to the next rank by earning RP (Rank Points).
Once players reach S-Rank, they receive a rating based on their ability. The top 100 rated S-Rank players will have this distinction displayed on their rank icon. - Rules
Ranked Matches employ Single (1v1) and Team (3v3) rulesets.
RP is earned through victories in Single matches, while in Team matches RP is earned through both victories and individual contribution.
The time limit is 2 minutes for Single matches and 3 minutes for Team matches. Maps are selected at random for each match. - Promotion
Once a player has earned the required RP for their current rank, they will enter a “Promotion Phase”.
During Promotion Phase, players will have a set number of matches to achieve good results and become eligible for promotion to the next rank. - Leaderboards
The top 100 rated Rank-S players will be posted to the leaderboards.
Information about each player such as their rating, name plate and AC configuration can be confirmed from the leaderboards. - Rank and Leaderboard Reset
Player ranks and leaderboards will be reset periodically.
Upon rank reset, players half-way up B-Rank and above will be relegated one rank according to their current rank and RP.
*Note: the next reset is scheduled for 29th February (Wed) 2024. - Name Plates and NP (Nest Points)
Some Name Plates are acquired by achieving good results in Ranked Matches, while others can be bought rom the Plate Shop.
Name Plates at the Plate Shop are purchased using NP (Nest Points) earned from Ranked Matches.
