[@SomeSoccerDude]

Today when I was playing in plat 1, I claimed loot island but only gained 2% for a top 7. One thing that my friend told me is if you don't deal any damage, it makes it extremely hard to gain 1% even in gold 1 lobbies

[@Aadam-lt5tg]

If u can't get out of gold Ur js ass

[@tavenuk]

Yeah your ranked points go up mainly by damage they made it much much harder to gain points now from placement so you need to be dealing damage and getting kills to maximize your points!! Thank you for the comment SoccerDude!!

[@alenx5455]

Last season it was quite painful at times at elite and especially champion, having 2 or 3 pretty good decent games to gain around 10-15%, then 2 times die off spawn at the start and lose almost all of that, because a ton of people landing there even tho the places were not main POI's, this season they made it even harder to reach unreal so im not even going to bother with it, I don't enjoy grinding ranked mode like crazy.

[@jenglerfit]

this actually makes so much sense

[@glowstonebomber]

Well this confirmed what I feared about champion. Last season, I got stuck in champion and couldn't get any progress. I would have a good game, then have 3 bad games and lose all my progress. There were times where making top 10 with a few kills gained me nothing.

[@pxladineu8793]

You need to be top 5 to actually gain in champion

[@ItsNotACheat]

I would say this is helpful, but its not. You should'nt need a youtube video to explain it, epic needs to make it more clear what is and isn't going to give ranking. Somehow you can drop 7 kills in a lobby get to top 25, and lose 8%, seemingly, you can drop 1 kill and get first place, and it means nothing. With airbending in the game, and 50 thousand different mobility options, and a terrible stamina mechanic, this season has been an absolute sweatfest.

[@treycowart8006]

Nice video, have you heard anything about the number of the storm circle affecting points as well as top 10? In other words, both placement rewards and the value of kills go up as you get into those final moving circles.

I think he said that the less players there are the more points each kill gives you. But actually that makes sense 🤔

[@tavenuk]

Thank you for the comment Charlie! Yes your first game has a protection on I don't think it affects the consistency bonus as far as Im aware as soon as the game ends if your going to lose points it just cancels the game in that regards but im not 100% sure on that!!

Hi this has made a lot of things more clear for me But I am still confused about one thing I had a game when I was diamond 1 placed 30th with 5 kills I died to an unreal player with the kills being 1 diamond 3, 2 elite, 1 champion and one unreal I was given 0% Was this a glitch or is my ranked broken if u would be able to reply be appreciated

[@CaseyGo]

This season feels just like last season made it to unreal easily with 8-12 kill wins majority of the way through elite & champion. Usually gained a pretty good amount.

[@Neonowl6618]

Do I get extra points for getting back to back to back 2nd places.

[@azsa3705]

I got to elite in builds and diamond 2 in zero builds pretty fast this season but can’t get out of elite. It’s so much harder now. I’m getting top 10 in 90% of my games and gain 1% lol. 30min games for 1 percent then lose 5 percent the very next game haha.

[@Determination386]

the background is why i stopped playing build ranked last season XD (i was diamond)

[@xUM94x]

Have they recently changed it in the last few days? I’m in Champion and it seems every time I get a win now it gives 10% each time regardless of the kills

[@Cinnamonon_plays]

Hopefully I can get unreal this season, I usually don’t grind for rank but this season I decided to because last season I got champ😊

[@Theonegalaxyskin]

I’m plat III, got 1 kill (74th) got 29th, was killed by a diamond player, damaged someone a LOT, AND WEBT UP 4%

[@Synergy465]

So what’s the highest rank you can be placed in ? I just dropped 13 in a placement and won with 6 kills coming at the late stages… only got silver 1 ?

[@KevinFerreira-nt5ws]

Be me:Plat 3. Drop 19 kills+win=gain 6 percent. Explain to me how this works again? I captured a weather tower and the island

[@marlwrld124]

If u were solo I have no clue but if u were in trios or squads playing with high ranked players u go up similar to them

[@desertedtubergaming]

I need some help getting to elite was elite last season but now that its harder i cant get back and i also dont have a squad anymore

[@CopaceticAtay]

Its a bit unclear what the "points" exactly are. Are you referring to the % gained or lost towards rank progression after the match? If so, I'm assuming your talking about them as a 1 to 1 ratio. as in 1 point gained = +1% towards your next rank. etc.?

[@MrCrabbyFatty]

is it relatively easier or harder to hit unreal this season compared to last?

[@tavenuk]

Ummm… I mean overall I would probably say yes because they seem to give you a lot more points for kills!! Last season in like diamond 15 kill win is like 60% points this season it’s over 100% so I would say yes!! Thank you for the comment Orange!!

[@attacxxs]

hey, not really a problem exactly but whats rank protection? its been saying it for me recently like first game protected or something

[@yovany608]

i might be wrong but i think you get one every day if you do bad in your first ranked match that day. it just prevents you from losing points during a bad first game where you’re not warmed up. it’s just a nice little bonus

[@ScepterLOL]

In elite rank yesterday i placed 86th with 0 kills and stayed the same oercent but a few games later i died 46th with 1 kill and lost 2%

[@TFNfinalflame21]

they just need to have it where u see how much u lose or gain in-game match like with adding or having it say -5% or +5% next to the rank if they ever add this

[@tavenuk]

That would be such a good addition I’m assuming they won’t because then it would leak exactly what gives you points so you would play for a certain placement or play for kills or whatever gives you the most which is not what they want

[@ibrahimlol]

Is diamond 1 good because I’m 50 percent in that but every time I land at my good small spots they is also like 3 teams their

[@FN_RS]

I'm diamond 1 90% and it is good to be diamond, but trust me it is hard to get out of diamond

[@OND30]

I think am not gonna make it to Unreal or even Champion now. Its just impossible for a player like me. They still haven't added a south african server after all this time so am extremely laggy compare to others, you guys don't know how many games I died because of this delay when I could had won the fights. On top of it I either try to get some kills and just die or jusr plah peacefully and just don't win any points

[@vicvm.]

Or I could just drop grim gate 50/50 top chest, get the best drop, roll my scroll and get everything, clean the POI and then get the bot and a 20 kill win If that goes wrong I could do the same thing but on underworld wich is easier.

I think you missed one thing. From my experience if you die off spawn on your first game of the day or in a few hours, you wont go down any points, it’s like a barrier so you don’t get punished for not being warmed up.
