Ranked Battles are a Player vs. Player (PvP) game mode in which seven players team up to against seven other players. MM creates mirrored games similar to Random Battles. Victory in battle is rewarded with a star, which is progress towards the next rank. Poor performance in battle will lead to reduced rewards and more importantly losing a star. Teamwork should be prioritized to have the best chance of winning. Earn enough stars to reach Rank 1 and "rank out."

Basics of Ranked Battles

  • Ranked Battles are for captains with an Account Level 8.
  • Ranked Sprint Battles are for captains with an Account Level 14.
  • The maximum team size in a Ranked Battle is five (5) players.
  • Success is based on mission completion, not enemy destruction. Focus on the objectives!

Eligible Ships

Each season of Ranked Battles requires ships of a specific tier to participate in the battles. Some seasons take place at different tiers depending on the rank bracket that you are participating in. For the current season (Season 4 Sprint), Tier VI is the only tier available for all rank brackets.

Ship Tiers - Season 4 Sprint
Rank Bracket Tier
Ranks 10 - 6 Tier VI
Ranks 5 - 2 Tier VI

Unlike Ranked Battles, Ranked Sprint has two major differences that players should take notice of:

  1. Shorter duration - each Sprint Season will last only 12 days
  2. Divisions - a division of 2 players can enter each battle

General tips for Ranked Battles

  • Consider the ships you enjoy playing the most.
  • Use this as an opportunity to grind ships, since you will only encounter same-tier enemy ships.
  • Communicate with your team - set goals, targets, and traps.
  • Utilize the minimap to predict enemy movements.
  • Study the "meta" and choose ships based on what you encounter. See a lot of destroyers? Pick a cruiser. Lots of cruisers? Go battleship.
  • Take a break after losing several games.
  • Do not expect to win every battle.
  • Set reasonable goals for yourself.
  • Expect to play a lot of battles to reach Rank 1.
