How the Elos system works in Valorant
During the closed beta, the game's ranking rules are:
- you need to play 20 matches unranked to unlock Competitive Mode.
- It is possible to play ranked matches with groups of 5 friends.
- Group members cannot be more than 2 links of difference (as a way to prevent players from "upping" others).
- Links will not be shown if the person does not play in Competitive Mode for 14 days, but the rank will never drop for that reason.
- Links hit during the closed beta will not be kept at the game's official launch.
- Wins in matches are the main evaluation criterion when moving up or down in Elo. However, individual performance will also be taken into account.
