Royale Rank System
Ranks are designated as below, increasing every 200 Rank points:
Novice (1-5): 0-1000
Amateur (1-5): 1000-2000
Opener (1-5): 2000-3000
Headliner (1-10): 3000-5000
Legend: 5000+
Every Royale tournament is a chance to gain rank points based on what rounds you win:
Round 1: 0 Rank Points
Round 2: 0 Rank Points
Round 3: +5 Rank Points
Round 4: +10 Rank Points
Round 5: +30 Rank Points
Finale: +75 Rank Points
The Higher rank you become the more rank points you lose when you are defeated in a Royale match, raising the stakes and making progress more challenging:
Novice: -0 Rank Points
Amateur: -5 Rank Points
Opener: -10 Rank Points
Headliner: -25 Rank Points
Legend: -30 Rank Points
The farther you are the more important victory is to gaining Rank!
We can't wait to hear all of your thoughts and see how you all Rank!
