[[File:Ranked terminal.jpg|thumb|The Ranked terminal]]

Players can view their ranks and the leaderboards in the rank menu in the [[Hideout]], represented by a chalkboard that displays the player's current rank or placement progress and their performance in their most recent ranked match. The machine next to the chalkboard prints a ticker tape showing the player's recent match results as well (red for losses and green for wins).

Players eligible for ~~ranked need to play~~ 8 placement matches. A player ~~cannot be ranked above~~ Oracle VI ~~in placement matches~~.

Players eligible for Ranked must complete 8 placement matches. Upon completing placements, the highest '''starting rank''' a player can achieve is Oracle VI.

=== Requirements ===

~~Players need~~ the following requirements ~~to play ranked mode~~:

Ranked mode has the following minimum requirements:

* 60 wins in standard mode

* 3 heroes unlocked for ranked

** A hero needs 15 wins in standard mode to be unlocked in ranked

Players also cannot queue for ranked if they have any matchmaking restrictions or bans, and cannot queue in parties of more than 2 players. Players in a party can only be up to 1 rank apart, and in Eternus they have to be up to 3 subranks apart.

Players also cannot queue for ranked if they have any matchmaking restrictions or bans, and cannot queue in parties of more than 2 players. Placement matches can only be played solo. Players in a party can only be up to 1 rank apart, and in Eternus they have to be up to 3 subranks apart.

=== Rank Points ===

Players will win or lose around ~~250~~ rank points for each match, slightly adjusted based on matchmaking and ~~performance~~.

Players will win or lose around 300 rank points for each match, slightly adjusted based on matchmaking quality and increased on win streaks.

Ranking up a subrank requires 1000 points, and ranking up to the next rank requires 2000 points. The exception is Eternus, in which the rank requirements per subrank are instead percentile-based.

Upon reaching the lowest threshold in a subrank, the player has 2 matches of rank protection before ranking down. Before going down a full rank, they have 5 matches of rank protection.

Upon reaching the lowest threshold in a subrank, the player has 2 matches of rank protection before ranking down. Before going down a full rank, they have 5 matches of rank protection. This is indicated by shield icons under the player's rank progress bar.

Players on a win streak earn bonus rank points starting at their 3rd consecutive win with 70 points, increasing by 20 points for each subsequent win, up to a maximum cap of 130 points at 6 wins.
