Valorant Ranks

VALORANT’s ranked mode called “Competitive” will return some time into the release. Here are all the VALORANT ranks that you can reach – and hopefully some instantly skip!

Iron (Mercenary)

Iron (originally planned as Mercenary) is the starter and lowest rank in VALORANT. It’s comparable to Bronze in League or Silver in CSGO.

Mercenary I

Mercenary II

Mercenary III

Bronze (Soldier)

Bronze (before beta “Soldier”) is the second lowest rank in VALORANT, comparable to Gold in CSGO.

Soldier I

Soldier II

Soldier III

Silver (Veteran)

The silver rank in VALORANT before beta launch was called Veteran.

Veteran I

Veteran II

Veteran III

Gold (Hero)

Hero was the originally planned name for the gold rank in VALORANT.

Hero I

Hero II

Hero III

Platinum (Legend)

The “Plat rank” was originally called Legend.

Legend I

Legend II

Legend III

Diamond (Mythic)

There is a reason why the diamond rank in VALORANT looks more like a purple diamond – it was originally named Mythic before the VALORANT beta launched.

Mythic I

Mythic II

Mythic III

Immortal

Immortal is the second highest VALORANT rank and likely comparable to Master / Grand Master in other games.

Immortal I

Immortal II

Immortal III

VALORANT

VALORANT is comparable to League of Legends’ challenger. There are even rumors that top players in this rank get some sort of compensation, maybe similar to some FaceIT ladders/leagues. VALORANT should not be compared to Global Elite in CSGO, which skill ceiling is way lower in comparison.

The VALORANT rank will be renamed with ranked launch in VALORANT 1.0. As of now at VALORANT’s official release, we don’t know yet how the new VALORANT rank will be called.

The biggest criticism by the community is that VALORANT is currently a top rank without any leaderboard or more detailed progression. Also the rumored compensation for top players, like for example in FaceIT’s top league, did not prove to be true yet.
