Ranked

Ranked is a system in SMITE designed to provide higher quality matches for competitive players. The current season of competitive play is Season 5, that began with the release of SMITE Version 5.1.4571.1 on January 30, 2018.

For information about the previous seasons see Season 4 Ranked, Season 3 Ranked, Season 2 League, Season 1 League and Pre-Season League.

Description

Ranked games allow players to compete against each other in the most competitive environment. The match lobby uses a draft mode just like our SPL games, including special features such as the ability to request a game pause. Season 5 this year has multiple splits which allow players to compete for special rewards through the year.

Ranked has 5 Tiers, with 5 Divisions each. There is a Master Tier that players compete for the ultimate goal of being a Grandmaster of Smite! Players that are able to make it to Grandmaster at the end of each Split qualify for special gem packages!

As you win, you earn Tribute. Earning more than 100 points will promote you to the next division. You may be promoted up by more than one division if you belong in a higher division. Losing Ranked games will deduct Tribute. If you lose enough games at 0 Tribute, you may be demoted down one Division.

If you don't play ranked for 2 weeks your Tribute Points will begin to decay, getting more intense each additional week you don't play. This caps at 6 weeks. Once you have begun decaying you will lose Tribute Points for each day you don't play. You can lose Divisions and Tiers by decaying. You can not decay lower than Gold V.

All Ranked Queues require you to be Level 30 but different Queues have different God Mastery Requirements. Conquest requires 20 gods owned, Joust requires 14 gods owned, while Duel require 0 gods owned. Only Owned gods may be selected in Ranked.

Ranked matches may be queued for as a solo player or limited to parties of two. Parties of three can queue in Joust only. Players queuing together must be within one tier of each other. Players still in Qualifying may queue together or with another player who is in Bronze, Silver, or Gold Tier.

Overview

Splits

Similar to the Smite Pro League, Smite's in-game ranked mode is divided into splits. Ranked players will qualify higher and promote faster during each Split. Once you pass 100 TP in your current division you are immediately promoted to the next division! Any excess points beyond 100 are credited to you in your newly earned division-

Now is a great time to get back into ranked play! When the Spring Split starts all players will have any previous ranking soft reset. This will allow al palyers to start the Spring Split on a more even playing field, while also ensuring quality Matchmaking.

Rewards

Each split has unique rewards that can be earned through a series of new achievements and goals. At the same time our traditional end of season rewards are also tracked in a brand new UI section of the ranked area. Additionally, our 25 best Grandmaster players have the chance to compete for gem packs every split!

God Leaderboards

Another exciting feature is the ability to show off your skills with your best gods! When you play a particular god in ranked you are earning a position on a global leaderboard for that god. Reach the top and you have the chance to show the world your skill and potentially earn special gem rewards at the end of each Split!
