▣ How to Earn Rank Points (RP)

Rank Points (RP) are the skill score used in Ranked Match.

Match Result

- Whether you win or lose a match is the biggest factor affecting your ‘RP’ changes. (Win: +RP / Loss: -RP) / - The amount of change may vary depending on the ‘RP’ gap between your team and the opposing team.

Play Contribution

- You can earn bonus RP based on how much you contribute to a match, such as kills, assists, and saves.

※ If you leave during a Ranked Match, you can rejoin.

※ If the match ends before you rejoin, or if you give up on rejoining, you will be subject to a matchmaking restriction and an RP deduction penalty.

▣ Ranked Match Party Play Support

Party play, in which you can play together with other players, is supported.

• Regardless of Ranked Match tier, up to 5 players can form a party as one team. However, if the tier difference is 5 or more, Ranked Match matchmaking is not possible. (The Game Start button is disabled.)

• If even one party member is under a matchmaking restriction, the time remaining until the restriction is lifted is shown to all party members, and Ranked Match matchmaking is not possible. (The Game Start button is disabled.)

• If even one party member has been isolated from the regular matchmaking pool because abnormal gameplay was detected, all party members are placed in a separate matchmaking pool isolated from the regular pool.

• If you leave during a Ranked Match, you leave the party immediately as well; when you rejoin, if party members remain, you are regrouped into that party.
