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

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.
