Player ranks, visualized as colored chevrons and stars next to their name, will change color depending on their rating. The rating required to reach a new rank is automatically updated so that each rank contains a set percentage of players. Thus, the rank color is a fairly direct indicator of a player's ranking percentile. The rank is calculated for every rating category, but only the best one is displayed.
In order to change rank in either direction, a player's rating has to surpass a 20% threshold into the next rank. |
In order to change rank in either direction, a player's rating has to surpass a 20% threshold into the next rank. for example, yellow ranks standard elo is 1500, you would need to get to like 1650 inorder to become yellow, and if you already are yellow, you would need like 1350 to drop to orange. (the numbers i gave are rather random numbers, just an example)
atleast, thats how i undestand it
