Rank Match is an type of live added in update 2.0.0 that allows players to compete against each other in a one-vs-one format. By winning matches in Rank Match, players can increase their rank from beginner to master rank. Rank Match is broken up into seasons; after every season concludes, players receive rewards based on their final rank. The following season, their rank is reset and players must start over.

Rank Match will always be available, regardless of the current event running, much like Solo and Challenge Live. Rank Match is available for players who have at least 10 expert or master full combos and reached player rank 50. Currently, players can only queue for Rank Match from 18:00 to 24:59 JST; this is to test the stability of Rank Match during the preseason.

Seasons

Season	Start	End
Preseason	March 30, 2022 18:00 JST	April 27, 2022 00:59 JST
Preseason Second	April 28, 2022 18:00 JST	May 27, 2022 00:59 JST
2022 Summer	July 1, 2022 12:00 JST	September 29, 2022 11:59 JST

Season rewards

After a season concludes, players will be rewarded with crystals, coins, and title badge depending on their final rank. This rank will also be recorded and can be viewed in following seasons.

The rewards for the preseason will only include coins and the final rank will not be recorded in history.

Ranks

Starting rank

A player's starting rank is determined by their past live performance and 3 preliminary matches. In preliminary match, players will be matched with another player who has similar ability. The player's abilities are determined by past live records.

Promotion and demotion

There are seven levels of "rank" and each rank divided into "tier". Tiers only exist from beginner rank to diamond rank. Once a player reached master rank, there is no limit to the number of rank point. Players can increase their ranks and tiers by accumulating "rank points." Players who win a live will earn 1 rank point; similarly, players who lose a live will lose 1 rank point. Players who accumulate 5 rank points will be promoted to a higher rank/tier. However, players who lose a live while having 0 rank points will be demoted to a lower rank/tier.

Rank point bonus

"Rank point bonus" allows a player to earn 1 "rank point" if the "rank point bonus" accumulated 100. The number of "rank point bonus" could increase or decrease depending on player's performance.

Rank point bonus calculation
Condition	Bonus
ALL PERFECT	+20
Full Combo	+10
Winning over the higher tier	+10
Life reached 0	-30

Notes:

"ALL PERFECT" and "Full Combo" bonus do not stack.
Rank points will not decreased even if the rank point bonus reached 0 or less.

Rules

Basic rules

In Rank Match, the party does not matter as the power of the party doesn't affect the score and skills do not activate. Thus, scoring is based solely on accuracy of the players, with each judgement having a different score.

Score calculations
Judgement	Score
PERFECT	+3
GREAT	+2
GOOD	+1
BAD	0
MISS	0

The winner of the match is determined by whoever has more points for the song. In the event of a tie, the winner will be determined based on the following values, in ascending priority:

Number of PERFECTs
Maximum combo
Remaining life

The match will count as a tie if all 3 values are also the same for both players.

Song selection

The songs selected will depend on the players' ranks. The difficulty levels of the songs selected are as follows:

Rank	Difficulty range
Beginner rank	18-25
Bronze rank	23-27
Silver rank	25-28
Gold rank	26-30
Platinum rank	28-31
Diamond rank	29-33
Master rank	30-36

Rewards

Season reward

Rank	Rewards
Beginner rank	×150	×5000
Bronze rank	×200	×10000
Silver rank	×250	×30000
Gold rank	×300	×50000
Platinum rank	×300	×70000
