Ranked is a competitive queue game mode. Players earn or lose stars if they win or lose in this mode. Warrior, Elite, Master, Grandmaster, Epic, Legend, and Mythic (Mythical Honor and Mythical Glory) are the seven ranks in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang.
Ranked is unlocked once the player's account reaches level 8 and have at least six or more heroes. Ranked cannot be played once the player's Credit Score is below 90.
Matchmaking Rules
Players can choose three heroes to feature on their lobby and draft phase. These heroes must be played at least once in rank.
Players can play solo or form a team of two, three or five players to queue. Players can invite other players who are one rank higher or lower than them in the lobby. A team of four is unallowed.
When a team with players in different Ranks queue, this is called Flex Rank, and they will only queue matches of the person of highest rank.
- Example: A Mythic player teams with an Epic player, both will follow the draft rule of the Mythic player.
- Example2: A Mythic Glory player teams with a Grandmaster player and a Legend player, all of them will follow the draft rule of the Mythic player, even if Draft Pick is normally unavailable for players in rank lower than Epic.
However, a solo queue player may end up matchmaking with allies in higher or lower rank, this can be triggered by the following:
- Allies play as team, while you are solo. Among the allies in the said team is at least a player with Rank similar to you.
- Example: An Epic player teams with a Legend player and you, an Epic player, may meet them.
- All players are solo, but enemy team has someone with Rank similar to you.
- Example: Your rank is Legend, but 4 of your teammates are Mythic. Then at least one of the enemy is Legend.
- When this phenomenon occurs, it is possible that only one member of the team is in a different rank
- Example: Your team has 4 players in Legend Rank, and 1 player in Mythic Rank, it means enemy team may have 1-4 players in Mythic Rank, but there must be someone in Epic Rank.
- Due to this Flex Rank mechanics, even a solo queue player at Legend I can queue up with an ally at Epic V, as they are just one rank different, but the gap is vastly different, leading to the widely perceived dark system.
Fast Matchmaking
Fast matchmaking option will be proposed if the queue takes too long, this option will match you with even players that you blocked previously.
If the player you blocked queue in team with someone that you don't block, you may still queue with them in match.
Draft Pick
- Main article: Draft Pick
When a player reaches Epic V or higher (Grandmaster V or higher in Advanced Server), Draft Pick becomes available for future matches. Unlike Blind Pick, Draft Pick allows both teams to see their heroes while being picked and bans a total of 10 heroes (five bans for each team) for balancing purposes. Heroes who have already been selected or banned cannot be picked for the duration of the match.
Rank System
There are seven ranks in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. These are: Warrior, Elite, Master, Grandmaster, Epic, Legend, and Mythic.
Each ranks has divisions written in Roman numerals and a number of stars required to be promoted to the next division or rank. If a player exceeds the maximum number of stars in their current division or falls below zero stars, they can advance to the next division or back to the previous division. Completing all divisions from their current rank or being demoted from all divisions will result in a promotion to the next rank or a demotion to the previous rank.
In Mythic, the stars have been replaced with points to advance to the next division.
Ranks
Star-raising and Star Protection Points
There are numerous methods for increasing or preventing star loss, which leads to star-raising and star protection points.
Star-raising allow players to gain an extra star when a player reaches 100% star-raising points on the next win.
Star protection allow players to avoid losing a star from losing a match by reaching 100% star protection points or by using star protection cards.
Star-protection cards are usually obtained through in-game Events, or through Starlight Rewards. They usually last for only 7 days once obtained or claimed from the Event pages.
Rank-protection card is the card that prevents you from demoting to the previous rank once. It is often acquired after you reach a higher rank: Epic to Legend, Legend to Mythic.
Only star protection points are available in Mythic, as star-raising points are disabled.
Rank Protection Card
Rank Protection Cards can only be obtained from Rank Promotion Rewards. Unlike Star Protection Points/Cards, they only activate on Defeats which will cause the player to demote in ranks (e.g. A Defeat resulting in a loss of stars from Legend V 0 Stars to Epic I 5 Stars, demoting from Legend rank to Epic rank).
Rank Reset
After a season ends, all players will begin their new season with their new rank based on their rank in the previous season. They also receive the reward for having reached certain Rank.
Rank reset is only applied when the player logs in for the first time in the new season, however their old Rank is not recorded on leaderboard.
