Deadlock has 12 ranks, from Obscurus up to Eternus, and every rank above Obscurus has six subranks (I to VI). Ranked launched as Beta Season 1 on July 30, 2026 and runs through October 7, 2026. The ladder below shows the live share of ranked matches played at each rank this season.
Ranked Mode needs at least 60 wins in Standard Mode, at least 15 wins on each hero you want to queue with, and at least 3 Ranked-eligible heroes on your roster.
Everyone starts the season with 8 calibration matches and a soft reset of their previous rank. Calibration is solo only, and the highest rank you can place out of it is Oracle VI.
Wins and losses move you about 250 points on average. Each subrank takes 1,000 points, and the final subrank before a new rank takes 2,000. Eternus placement uses daily percentile thresholds instead of fixed points.
You get 5 protected games after reaching a new rank and 2 after a new subrank. Ranked currently allows solo or duo queue only; duo partners must be within 1 rank of each other, or within 3 subranks at Eternus.
When the season ends, the highest rank you reached is saved permanently to your rank history. Track your climb on your player page or see where the top players sit on the leaderboard.
