New Ranked Season
For the competitive crowd, the next Ranked season has begun, introducing new rewards and improvements to progression. This season, youll have a chance to earn a new set of Ranked weapon skins to complement the Ranked Trucker Hats, Shades, and Bandanas offered in prior seasons. Whats more, this season, were awarding a special Ranked Huzzah taunt for those that reach Gold rank or higher. Alongside new rewards, we are also improving the Qualifier and Master Rank systems – Qualifiers will focus on points earned, rather than matches won and Master Rank will now have points earned based off an average of matches (Master Rank will give a match rating averaging your 20 previous Ranked matches). This way, your progress is based entirely on your own performance.
New Qualifier System
Qualifiers are now based on points earned rather than matches won. This allows your personal performance to impact your advancement to a much larger degree. To pass from Gold I to Platinum III, for example, you need to earn at least 35 points over the course of 5 matches. Points earned are still based on your grade for that match, with an S grade on a win awarding the maximum of 40 points. Overachieving on points required will gives you bonus points upon advancing to the next rank (to a maximum of 50 points). Failing a qualifier series with negative points will penalize you by that many points.
Master Rank System Update
We have revamped the way points are handled in Master Rank. Instead of being a grind for points, the system focuses on your average performance. Players will enter into Master Rank with a 200 match rating average. At the end of a match, you will receive a Match Rating and this will be factored into your 20 game average. This average represents your Master Rank points. The maximum possible Match Rating is 1000, and the lowest is -1000. Get better scores, higher kills, revives and assists, while minimizing deaths to maximize your Match Rating.
