What is Apex Legends Mobile Ranking System?

Apex Legends Mobile introduces a ranked mode that allows players to compete and showcase their skills in a competitive environment, similar to other popular mobile battle royale games like PUBG Mobile and Call of Duty Mobile. This ranked mode has been well-implemented and polished, benefiting from the success of the PC/console version of Apex Legends.

Here’s how the ranked mode works in Apex Legends Mobile:

  1. Unlocking Ranked Mode: To access the ranked mode, players must first play normal unranked matches and earn experience points. When a player reaches level 8, they can unlock the ranked mode.
  2. Starting Rank: Every player begins in the Bronze rank, the initial rank in the game. No RP (ranked points) is required at this level, and there is no limit to the number of players in each rank, except for the highest rank, “Apex Predator,” which is limited to the top 750 players.

  3. RP and Match Entry: Players use RP to initiate ranked matches. The amount of RP required depends on the player’s current rank. Higher ranks demand more RP. If a player performs poorly in a match, they lose the RP used to start the match. Conversely, strong performances yield more RP.
  4. RP Earnings: RP earned in a single battle royale match can go up to a maximum of 250. RP gain depends on the player’s survival, kills, assists, and revives during the match.
  5. Rank Demotion: Unlike some other mobile games, players in Apex Legends Mobile cannot be demoted to a lower rank until the seasonal reset. Even if they perform poorly, they remain in their current rank, potentially falling to the lowest tier they’ve previously reached.
  6. Season Resets: Seasonal resets in Apex Legends Mobile occur approximately every 2 to 3 months, ushering in a fresh start for ranked play.

Apex Legends Mobile Ranking System Rewards

Ranked matches in several games hand out rewards to the player when they reach a new rank.

  1. Rank-Based Rewards: Players receive rewards as they reach new ranks in the game. The quality of these rewards improves as you climb higher in the ranks.
  2. Seasonal Changes: The rewards for reaching new ranks may change with each new season. This keeps the rewards fresh and provides players with new incentives to play.
  3. Seasonal Resets: At the end of a season, players may experience a rank reset, moving down a few ranks. However, they do not lose the rewards they have already earned in the previous season. This allows players to keep the rewards they’ve unlocked and strive for higher ranks in the new season.

Apex legend Mobile has a ranked mode that is quite different from other games. It’s possible that you can play in an unproductive way where you end up being stuck in one rank for a long time. You need to use every advantage available to earn some extra points in the ranked matches. Here are some tips and tricks to help you rank up faster in Apex Legends Mobile:

  • Begin with normal matches to learn maps and weapons. Familiarity with the terrain and gear locations will give you an edge in ranked matches.
  • Team up with friends for ranked matches. Playing with friends enhances communication and teamwork, reducing the risk of losing.
  • Ensure your team has diverse character classes to cover offense and defense. Aim for at least two different classes if you can’t have all three.
  • Prioritize survival in battle royale matches. Staying alive and reaching the top teams earns more RP than chasing kills and dying early.

My Thoughts on Apex Mobile’s Ranking System

After 70+ hours of experience in Apex Legends Mobile, I can confirm its ranking system differs highly from its competitor games, such as Call of Duty Mobile and PUBG Mobile. It is also a good thing that, unlike other Battle Royale games, players are not demoted to the lowest rank. However, this advantage to players is also one of the biggest flaws in the ranking system of Apex Mobile.

Players with low mechanical skills or low game sense will end up climbing to the higher ranks. As a result, it might ruin the experience for other competitive players who are trying their level best to reach higher ranks, such as Master or Apex Predator.
