Rocket League Rank Distribution Explained 2023

Like many other competitive online games, Rocket League allows its players to square off in ranked games, where they can put their matchmaking rank on the line. While your competitive rank is not exactly a true reflection of your skill level, this doesn’t mean that players won’t strive for the highest rank every season.

Wandering what the average rank is? How many players are in your Rocket League rank? How hard it will be to advance? Here’s all you need to know about Rocket League ranks and rank distribution in 2023.

What Are The Rocket League Ranks In 2023

The year 2023 has not brought many changes to the Rocket League rank system. Season 9 still includes the same ranks for Rocket League competitive matches. These are, from lowest to highest:

1. Bronze
2. Silver
3. Gold
4. Platinum
5. Diamond
6. Champion
7. Grand Champion
8. Supersonic Legend

As soon as you hit level 10 in-game, your next 10 placement matches will determine what rank you’ll start with. Every rank also has 3 different tiers. Every win gets you points that might advance you to another tier (or the next rank, if you’re on tier III) and likewise, every loss will cost you points and can push your Rocket League rank lower. The game also offers different ranks for every mode. The three most important ones are 1v1, 2v2 and the most classic, 3v3. For every mode you will have to complete placement matches and your rank can differ for every game mode.

What Is The Current Rank Distribution In Rocket League

Knowing what Rocket League rank distribution looks like can give you, as a player, much valuable information. For one, you can check how easy it will be to find a match. Obviously the lower number of players, the longer you might wait. Thankfully, even at Supersonic Legend most players report that they don’t have to wait too long before they’re put in a match. You can also see how many players are better (or worse) than you. The rank distribution is presented by a number, which represents how much of this mode’s player base is currently sitting at that specific rank.

What Does The Rank Distribution Tell You About The Rocket League Competitive Matchmaking?

Although the Rocket League ranks distribution listed above is just a set of numbers, you can learn some interesting info regarding the Rocket League players. For one, most players are actually not stuck in the lower ranks, but generally, stay around gold and platinum. This means that these ranks have the easiest time finding matches, but also that for most players platinum is the highest rank that they can achieve. While the unranked players are generally those who didn’t reach level 10 (or didn’t play this season) it’s also interesting that there are so few players in bronze. This means, that if you’re stuck around lower ranks, you’re really among the unlucky few.

Looking at the Supersonic Legend rank can also tell us some interesting info about how Rocket League ranks work. With so few players in this rank this Rocket League season, getting there means you’re really the best of the best. If you made it that far, chances are you can easily beat most Rocket League players and should consider playing in pro tournaments.
