RANKED LEAVER PENALTY
- Please note: leaving ranked games will result in a 30-minute or longer leaver penalty.
- We suggest only to play ranked on a stable connection and when you have time to finish the ranked match that you started!
IMPORTANT
- You can limit matchmaking search via settings to GLOBAL or REGIONAL.
- GLOBAL means matches played on the most optimal server for all players in the match. Automatic server selection.
- REGIONAL means matches played on the servers in the selected region only. Player chosen server.
WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO KNOW
- Playing solo or partying up with friends has the same matchmaking rank search limitations.
- You can only enter ranked defuse if all members of your party are within your rating search range.
- There will never be three different ranks inside the same match.
