Valorant Ranking System in 2025: Valorant is a shooting game by Riot Games that has been getting popular all over, and with it, the competitive rank system has also been changed lately. As Episode 9 Act 1 starts, Riot makes some updates that matters if you’re trying to climb. Let’s break down what the system is now in this year.

Valorant Ranking System and Their Levels

The game has nine main ranks, beginning from Iron and ending at Radiant, which only top players get. In between are many divisions like Bronze, Silver, Platinum, and so on. Except Radiant and Immortal, every tier has three stages—like Diamond 1, Diamond 2, etc.

Here’s all of them:

  • Iron
  • Bronze
  • Silver
  • Gold
  • Platinum
  • Diamond
  • Ascendant
  • Immortal
  • Radiant

Radiant is limited to the best 500 players per region, Immortal is below that and is still very high.

How RR Works

After each match, you’re getting or losing Rank Rating (RR) depending on win or lose. If you win, you get RR (how much depends on your MMR and your stats), and losing reduces RR. When in low rank, your personal performance, like top fragging, can help get you more RR.

You need 100 RR to jump into the next division. If you fall to 0 RR and lose more, you might get dropped down to a lower rank.

MMR and Placements

When you enter ranked first time, or a new Act starts, there are five placement games. These put you in a rank. It checks your hidden MMR to decide your start. Even if you’re playing badly but you have a high MMR, it can still place you up.

MMR is not shown, but it’s important. Even if you’re Silver 2, the system might think you’re playing like Gold 1. So match you with them. This also controls how much RR you get.

No Decay and Act Rank

Unlike other games, Valorant doesn’t have rank decay, so you don’t lose rank for being inactive. But there’s something called Act Rank, which shows your best wins in a triangle graph.

You only need to win one ranked match in the act to get this badge.

New Stuff in 2025

Recently, Riot added tools to stop smurfs and made MMR better matched. Also improved matchmaking and added penalties for players leaving games or cheating system.

Closing Thoughts

Rank system in Valorant is always changing, sometimes in small ways. Learning how RR and MMR work helps you climb more smartly. Even small things matter when you’re trying for Radiant.
