Raid Ranking Breakdown

Players will initially seed at rank 1200 (exceptions in tier 3/CMI will apply).

Team rank is the average of ALL players signed up for your team.

A team gains/loses a min of 0 and a max of 32 for each raid wing. If a team has the exact same rank as another team they will gain or lose 16 points. If a higher rated team beats a lower rated team the gain/loss will be less than 16. If a lower rated team beats a higher rated team the gain/loss will be more than 16. See the chart below for some examples.

In a “one on one” scenario (only 2 teams running against each other at the same time) it plays out exactly as the above description/chart. In a mass start situation, the cut off is at the number of teams who will eventually qualify for the next round. For example (see below), if there are 12 teams and 8 teams will make it to the knock out round. In this instance, if you place 1-8 in a raid wing, each of those teams will gain the corresponding points for beating the 9th place team and the 9-12 place teams will lose the corresponding points for losing to the 8th place team.

There is an acceleration that is applied to your first 30 wings to get new teams/players to a more accurate ranking faster. 50% increased rating for 1st 10 wings, 25% for wings 11-20, 10% for wings 21-30.
