Rating Matches

Rating Matches pit you against players across the world in an epic struggle for Rating Point supremacy.

The periods for amassing Rating Points are known as "seasons".

Players who take part in seasonal Rating Matches will receive rewards at the season's conclusion.

Compete with other players in two different rankings to see who has the most Rating Points:

1. League Ranking - compete against all players

2. Group Ranking - compete against players in the same group

Please visit the "League Ranking" and "Group Ranking" menus to view the respective rankings for the ongoing season.

The results of battles that conclude even after a season has finished will still affect the rankings.

Rating Points will reset with each new season.

When viewing the rankings, keep in mind that player placement corresponds to the time the data was compiled, and thus may not always be up-to-date.

Season Rank

Season Ranks are decided according to the number of Rating Points earned.

The highest rank that can be achieved is Godly, and at Silver ★1 or higher, Rating Points will be lost after losing a match.

Matchmaking for Rating Matches is based on Season Rank.

At the end of each season, rewards are distributed based on Season Ranks and the ranks are then reset.

Group

"Groups" are collections of players competing within the same Group Rankings.

Your Season Rank at the end of the previous season determines which block of Groups you can join.

・D

・C

・B

・A

・S

・Z

Each of these blocks have multiple Groups, and anyone who fulfills the requirements to join the Group Rankings will be placed into one.

1st Win RP Bonus!

The 1st Win RP Bonus is a special bonus that can be earned in Rating Matches with your first win of the day.

The bonus will not apply from your second win onward, but it can be earned once again when the day resets.

The 1st Win RP Bonus gives a set amount of Rating Points each time and cannot be affected by other bonuses such as the "RP x2" bonus.

*The 1st Win RP Bonus may be restricted for players at Diamond ★7 or higher.

Special Rank Up

Players who participate in Rating Matches and finish the season above a certain Season Rank will receive a Special Rank Up at the start of a new season.

This Special Rank Up grants players Rating Points when a new season begins according to their Season Rank at the end of the last season they participated in.

Godly Player

After a certain amount of time has passed from the start of the season, anyone who reaches Season Rank Diamond ★7 or higher and ranks in the top 1,000 in the Legends League Ranking will receive the Godly rank.

This status will be lost if the above conditions are no longer met.

After finishing a season at Godly rank once, the number of times a player has achieved Godly rank will be recorded.

Rating Match Rewards

Rating Matches give 4 different types of rewards:

- Match Rewards

Given out based on the battle results and Season Rank following a Rating Match.

- Season Rank Achievement Rewards

Given out whenever a Season Rank is reached for the first time.

- Season Rank Rewards

Based on the Season Rank held at the season's end and given to all players who took part in Rating Matches that season.

- Ranking Rewards (League Ranking & Group Ranking)

Awarded to players who have reached certain ranks or are within certain ranking brackets.

*It is necessary to participate in a certain number of Rating Matches in order to place in the rankings.

Season Rank Rewards and Ranking Rewards are given out when accessing the PvP screen after the results are calculated.

The time at which rewards can be claimed differs with their type, as detailed below.

1. Match Rewards: End of match

2. Season Rank Achievement Rewards: Upon reaching a new Season Rank

3. Season Rank Rewards: During the next season

4. Ranking Rewards: During the next season

- Please note that it is necessary to participate in a certain number of Rating Matches in order to claim rewards.

*Players may receive Ranking Rewards from both the League Ranking and Group Ranking, but they cannot receive multiple Ranking Rewards in the same category.

For example, if a player is number one in the rankings, they will be ineligible to receive the Ranking Rewards for placing in the top 15% and will only receive the Rank 1 reward.

Boost Characters

Boost Characters will power up when used in Rating Matches, Treasure Battles, and Tri-Arena.

The characters that receive these boosts will change each season.

The strength of these boosts depends on the tier.

*Characters in the same tier will receive different boosts depending on whether they are Zenkai Awakened or not.

*In Tri-Arena, Boost Characters may or may not be available depending on the season.

The characters must be used in battle to receive boosts.

Simply adding a Boost Character to your party will not result in the boost taking effect.

You can check the current Boost Characters from the main PvP screen.

If Boost Characters are available for Tri-Arena, they can be checked from the "Boost Characters" menu on the Tri-Arena screen.

Leagues

  • Players will be placed in one of three leagues, the Challenger, Rising, or Legends League, based on their Season Rank.
  • Players can reach the Rising League by having enough RP at the end of the season.
  • To reach the Legends League, players must reach the required Season Rank and must place within a certain rank in the Rising League Ranking.
  • *See the rankings screen for detailed placements.
  • *Players who have previously reached the Legends League may promote immediately, without waiting for the end of the season, once they reach Platinum ★7.
  • At the end of the season, players who did not participate in the Legends League Ranking or who placed below a certain rank will be demoted to the Rising League.

Match rules

Standard Rules

The usual Rating Match: 3 of your 6 characters fight, swapping in and out.

PROUD Rules

PROUD Rules are a special rule set under which battles are fought using all 6 characters in your party.

For the first round, select 3 out of the 6 characters to do battle.

In the second round, the remaining 3 will do battle.

If the match is a draw after the second round, the BATTLE OF PRIDE (final round) will be held,

in which you will battle using a team of 3 that must feature at least 1 character from each of the previous rounds.

*The first and second rounds are shorter than a standard round.

*If the season ends before the winner of the match has been decided, the results will not be reflected in the rankings.

Auto Match Rules

Auto Match Rules are only available to players in the Challenger League. Under these rules, battles can be enjoyed using Auto Mode. However, players are not restricted to Auto Mode and can begin playing manually at any time.

*The stronger and faster AI from the LEGENDS Pass is not available in Auto Mode.

In this mode, less RP will be earned or lost than in standard Rating Matches.

Matchmaking will occur between players who have selected Auto Match Rules.
