Rainbow Six Siege ranking system explained
Click to enlargeRanked is a competitive game mode in R6S that players can access after reaching level 50. It essentially gives you a rank based on your skill level, and then pits you against players of a similar rank, with wins increasing your rank, and losses degrading it.
At the start of each season, you'll be given an initial rank based on the first ten matches you play, known as placement matches, which grade your performance. That means if you manage to achieve Champions rank in one season, you will have to do it again in the next.
Of course, the best way to achieve this highest rank in Rainbow Six Siege, like many other shooters, is through practice. Optimise communication between your teammates, memorise the layouts of each map, practice aiming with an aim trainer, practice with each operator to learn their roles to better the understanding of you and your team, and be sure to utilise the drones to find enemy locations.
