As you play ranked, you will earn RP and slowly climb from Bronze IV to Apex Predator (if you have what it takes, that is). Each tier and each rank has a required amount of RP you need to accumulate in order to rank up. While in Bronze, you will need 30 RP to rank up between divisions. So, 30 for Bronze III, 60 for Bronze II, and 90 for Bronze 1. In silver, you will need to earn 40 RP between each tier, 50 RP in Gold, 60 RP in Platinum, and 70 RP in Diamond for a total of 1,000 RP to reach Apex Predator. Here is how it breaks d

Remember that the top 10/5/3 finishes do not stack, so the maximum you can possibly earn in a single match is 17 RP (12 RP for winning the match and 5 RP for your first 5 kills). If you get three kills and finish in the top three you will earn 10 RP. If you can do this consistently, then you've got a decent shot at making it to Apex Preda

You will be rewarded 1 RP for each kill you get up to a maximum of 5 RP per match. Remember: these need to be confirmed kills, so make sure you are finishing off your opponents once they are knocked down. This is somewhat controversial as the system incentives you to thirst your opponents when it otherwise may benefit your team to focus fire and eliminate the entire enemy squad together. Wins will get you the most bang for your buck, so don't risk a potential win just to get one more RP for a k

There are six ranks in Ranked Leagues: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Apex Predator. Each of these ranks, except for Apex Predator, has four divisions in each. Starting with Bronze IV, then Bronze III, Bronze II, Bronze I, and then Silver IV. You will need to climb through every single division to reach the top rank: Apex Preda
