Marvel Rivals is an intense hero shooter with a Competitive mode that really tests a team’s integrity. Grind through the ranks to prove yourself as a valuable hero or villain on any team.

If you’re interested in the rules, ranks, and how to play ranked in the beta, here’s everything you need to know about Competitive in Marvel Rivals.

All Competitive ranks in Marvel Rivals

  • Bronze (I – III)
  • Silver (I – III)
  • Gold (I – III)
  • Platinum (I – III)
  • Diamond (I – III)
  • Grandmaster (I – III)
  • Eternity (No divisions, just rank points)
  • One Above All (No divisions, just rank points)

There are eight ranks in Marvel Rivals and the final two scrap the divisions for pure points, so you’ll need to just focus on racking them up if you want to reach those heights. Once you hit Eternity, your rank will start declining if you don’t play for a long period of time.

Every 100 points your rank will increase. If you’re facing a demotion, you will be shielded before you drop to a lower rank, so you have a chance to recover.

Marvel Rivals Competitive party restrictions & rules

In Marvel Rivals Competitive, you can team up only with players within one rank of your own (Bronze and Silver count as one rank). Therefore, if you are in Diamond, you can only play with those in Platinum or Grandmaster.

How to unlock Competitive in Marvel Rivals beta

To play the Competitive mode in Marvel Rivals’ beta, you’ll need to reach Level 5. This shouldn’t be too hard for you to do, as it took me just under 10 matches to get there.

If you reach Gold rank in the beta, you’ll unlock an exclusive permanent reward.

How to rank up in Marvel Rivals Competitive

In Marvel Rivals Competitive, you earn rank points and climb up divisions by winning matches. Game modes have multiple rounds and will feature objectives such as payload and holding the point. The team that wins the most rounds wins the game.

Rewards are handed out at the season’s conclusion and you will receive rewards for the highest rank you achieved. Ranks will then reset for the new season’s start.

Keep in mind that Marvel Rivals is still in beta, so its Competitive mode will likely go through some changes leading up to launch.

Give yourself the best chance when playing ranked by using the best characters in the game and learning all the maps.
