This mode’s addition is to bring a higher level of competitiveness to the players of Spectre Divide. It also tests and levels up the players’ skills to create opportunities to climb the ranks. See what’s new with the Spectre Divide ranked mode.
Ranked Mode Launch and Access
Mountaintop Studios increased action when they released the ranked mode during the closed beta phase. They released access to ranked mode from August 19, 2024, at 12 P.M P.T until August 21, 2024 at 6 PM P.T.
It’s a full three days of competitive gaming and outsmarting opponents in Spectre Divide. However, you’ll have to win a minimum of five matches in casual mode to obtain ranked mode access. This mechanic is to make sure that the player has enough knowledge of the gameplay and employs strategies.
Comprehensive Ranking System
The ranking system in Spectre Divide divides into two which are solo ranks and teams to make equal battles.
In the Solo Ranks, there are a total of eight tiers that players can climb up to. From an ascending order, it starts in Bronze followed by Silver, Gold, Platinum, Emerald, Ruby, Diamond and lastly, the Champion.
On the other hand, team ranks have nine tiers for groups to navigate through. Their initial start will be in Undiscovered and will end at Champion. Here are the tiers for team ranks:
- Undiscovered
- Prospect
- Talent
- Professional
- Elite
- International
- Superstar
- World Class
- Champion
These tiers, except for Champion, have four divisions. The lowest will be at 1, while the highest will be at 4. Players will move up in a division once they earn a 200 Santai Rating (SR).
Ranking Up and Match Format
Accumulating Santai Rating (SR) points is necessary for ranking up in the Spectre Divide. When players, whether in a team or solo, reach a new rank, they will receive a bonus of 50 SR. However, the lobby leader will get to choose the rank type where the gained SR applies.
When it comes to being unique, Spectre Divide has plenty of entries in it. For instance, it has a “win-by-two” scenario for their ranked matches. It shies away from the traditional overtime systems by having the matches continue until a team gets a two-round advantage. With this format, the game matches end with a definitive winner.
Placement Matches and Rank Resets
A series of five placement matches will determine the new players or newly formed teams’ initial rank in the game. Yet, you will have to repeat the process if you join a new team to ascertain that team’s placement.
Additionally, as the ranked mode is released in the closed beta version, players will not carry on their progress in the game’s official launch. They will be restarting the ranks and SR to make the playing field fair for all players.
The Road to Champion
Champion stood the highest and was unique among Spectre Divide’s ranks. It imposes no limits on SR limit which caters to a continuous progression among the highest-ranked teams and players. It is certain to maintain the competitiveness of matches, even if they are in the final tier.
Conclusion
Competition soared in Spectre Divide closed beta upon the addition of ranked mode. The structured competitive system allowed them to test their skills and tactics as they climbed the ranks. Moreover, teams and solo players’ ranks are separated to level the matches.
Another noteworthy feature in Spectre Divide ranked mode is its win-by-two format. The game won’t require you to play an overtime match, as a conclusive two-point win will win the match.
Overall, Spectre Divide boosts the excitement for what the gaming community is about to see in its official launch. Despite being in a closed beta version, Spectre Divide has been surpassing expectations with its amazing gameplay mechanics.
