Explaining the VALORANT rank rank system

Riot Games has officially announced the details of the matchmaking rank system for VALORANT. On the official VALORANT website, written by Ian “Brighteyz
Fielding, a member of the professional competitive team VALORANT.

“Competitive mode will be available soon after patch 0.48, starting with Europe and North America.”

Competitive mode will use “the same rules and regulations as Unrated, but with a more competitive focus. The team says these are still early stages and will improve over time, but “the main experience is still the same as in the closed beta.”

Slightly different from other competitive matchmaking systems is that VALORANT will not focus on the number of wins or losses of the Game including your personal skills to be included in the ranking formula. “We take into account your individual skills to be able to see if you’re smurf, to reduce ‘boosted’ ranks, and to ensure most games, you and your teammates play a fair game. plain”.

Riot “summarizes” a few things that will soon be available in competitive mode:

• Complete 20 Unrated matches to unlock Competitive mode
• 8 ranks, with 3 tiers each, except for the highest rank, VALORANT
• Finding games with a group of 5 people can only be separated by a maximum of 2 ranks.
• Rank doesn’t show up in competitive matches if you haven’t played for 14 days, but rank won’t drop during this time.
• Rank in Closed beta will not be retained when the game officially launches.

The rank system will be similar to the famous MOBA game of League of Legends, starting with Iron. From Iron you will move up Bronze (Bronze), Silver (Silver), Gold (Gold), Platinum (Platinum), Diamond (Diamond), Immortal and VALORANT ranked from low to high.

Riot Games emphasizes once again that “winning the game is the most important factor for promotion”, but excellent performance can help you to rank up faster. On the contrary, if you perform poorly while losing, you can drop down the rankings faster.
