What are ranked battles?
This is new Game Mode in the “15 vs 15” format only for Tier X vehicles. The team that destroys all enemy equipment or captures their base wins. Essentially the conditions are the same as in random battles, but the main goal is to show high personal effectiveness in battle and move up the rankings, earning ranks and awards. The higher the combat effectiveness, the higher the rank in the special rating of ranked battles. Read about how to select the desired mode and play it.
How does the balancer work in ranked battles?
The main goal of the balancer is to assemble a battle from players of the same rank. The balancer aims to send you into battle with players of your level, which means the higher your rank, the stronger the enemy will be.
Sometimes, in order to avoid a long queue, a battle may take place with teams of players of different ranks. The longer a tanker waits for a battle, the less strict the rules apply to creating a battle. However, the number of players of a certain rank in teams will always be the same.
Is only standard combat used or can you get into an assault?
Just a standard fight.

How to get ranks?
To get a rank, you need to earn a certain number of chevrons. The higher your position in earned experience among allies, the more likely you are to receive a chevron.
How are chevrons credited or debited?
The winning team receives 10 chevrons best players based on experience gained. Players who ranked 1st-3rd in experience on the winning team receive an additional chevron.
On the losing team, the chevron is awarded to the player who takes first place in experience earned.
Players of the losing team who took 2nd–5th places keep their chevrons.
Players of the losing team who took 6th–15th places lose chevrons.
If the match ends in a draw, both teams are considered losers. In this case, only the best players of both teams receive the chevron. The rest keep or lose their tokens - depending on the place occupied in the team at the end of the battle.
The number of tokens you need to earn to advance to the next rank increases as you progress from rank 1 to 15. You will find information about how many tokens you need to increase your rank and how many remain to earn after selecting ranked battles in the mode menu to the right of the “Battle!” button. The tokens will be displayed below the button.
What are divisions?
In the new season, participants in ranked battles will have to go through 4 divisions one after another, with 15 ranks in each:
- Qualifying,
- Third,
- Second,
- First.
All competitors begin the season in the Qualifying Division. If you move to a higher division, you will no longer be able to fly out of it - at most you will return to the initial rank of the current division.
The first rank of each division is fireproof. Rank 10 and 13 in each division have loss protection:
- At rank 10 - two unsuccessful battles.
- At rank 13 - one unsuccessful battle.
If you exceed the defense limit, you will return to the previous rank. However, if you earn a token in an unsuccessful battle, your loss protection will be restored.
Depending on the effectiveness of your play in each division, you will receive a special reward - a certain number of bonus battles.
What are prize fights? How are they calculated?
Bonus fights are your reward for successful game within the division. The principle of their operation resembles the system double experience for the first battle: once a day on a certain car you can earn twice as many tokens. If the prize fight was unsuccessful, it is not written off - and you can try again.
You can see if you have any bonus battles in the Hangar in the image of your current rank.
Vehicles for which bonus battles are available are marked with a special icon on the vehicle panel.
The number of bonus battles you will receive after playing in a division depends on your performance. Efficiency is the ratio of the number of chevrons received to the number of battles you played in the division.
Conditions for awarding prize battles

- Golden League. It will include 20% of players who showed the highest efficiency.
- Silver League. The next 30% of players in terms of efficiency will fight in it.
- Bronze League. The remaining 50% of players will end up here.
The principle of playing in prize leagues is the same as in divisions: you must fight as effectively as possible and earn as much experience as possible. If your performance improves, you will move up to a higher league. If it goes down, you'll go back to the lower one.
What is role-playing experience?
Role experience is additional experience, which you will receive after the battle if you not only caused damage, destroyed opponents and helped allies, but also acted in accordance with the role of your equipment in battle. For example, a heavy tank should block shells and deal damage in close combat, while ambush, weakly armored tank destroyers should deal as much damage as possible from long distances.
There are a total of seven combat vehicle roles within the season.
- Defender. This role is suitable for most heavy tanks.
- Fire support. A role for medium tanks with modest armor, but comfortable guns and good mobility.
- Light attack aircraft. Role for universal medium tanks with rational armor or sedentary medium tanks with good armor.
- Heavy attack aircraft. The role is best suited for tank destroyers or heavy tanks with a magazine loading system.
- Sniper. Role for ambush lightly armored tank destroyers.
- Scout. Best suited for light tanks.
- Artillery. The role of self-propelled guns.
During a battle, a successful role-playing action of your vehicle is marked in the event feed with a special icon. You will find the exact amount of additional experience in the post-battle statistics.

New mode and new season ranked battles only for tenth levels, after many experiments, create something new but in the old way (perhaps this is ranking players by skill?).
Battles, as usual, will be carried out 15 tanks against 15 tanks, without platoons, pure skill. In ranked battles, the balancer will distribute players by Rank, equal rank versus equal rank, for the same conditions, but there will also be plus/minus one rank and this is normal.
Ranked battles 2019 – New season
Ranks in WoT
Such battles will take place in a standard format: 2 teams of 15 players. The peculiarity is that only level 10 tanks will participate in the battles.
The battle conditions correspond to the random battle mode: the team that completely destroys the opponents' tanks or captures the base wins.
However, this is where the analogy ends. Key Feature Ranked battle is a personal result. The essence of the idea is as follows: by showing high performance in the game, tankers will move up the rankings, increasing their rank, receiving interesting awards and prizes.
If a tanker gets into the top 12 of the winners or the top 3 of the losing squad, he receives a chevron. Chevrons are the key to obtaining the next rank. To rise to the first step in the ranking and become the owner of the first rank, one chevron is enough, but then the conditions will gradually become more complicated.
It should be clarified that ranks 1 and 5 are kind of checkpoints that save game progress. Essentially, these are starting points from which players can move further in the ranking system.
Curiously, rank 5 is the maximum possible for an account. Having reached the top, the rank of the equipment begins to increase. The same principle applies here: personal contribution to the outcome of the battle increases the rank of the tank. 
You win in ranked battles, you progress and receive new ranks. Number of ranks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 - rank.
You're losing
— the first top 3 players of the losing team not only do not lose rank, but also continue to move up upon reaching the highest rank. The first and fifth ranks are non-combustible. 
What to do if you reach rank 5 in World of Tanks? New opportunities open up for players, and vehicle ranks appear. The more ranks of cars you farm, the higher place you will take in the final table.
Season of Ranked Battles
Ranked battles are divided into seasons. Seasons of ranked battles were deliberately not very long - only a MONTH. Within the season, ranked battles are divided into stages. Where after each stage the results will be reset. At the end of each season, a table of the best players is formed - these are LEAGUES, there will be three leagues in total. The best players will enter the first league, those in the middle will enter the second league, and the rest will enter the third. All rewards in ranked battles will be awarded based on the results of the seasons. 
The main reward for ranked battles will be special boxes containing boosters, credits, free experience, even in-game gold. Added specifically for ranked battles new reward in the form of BONKS, which will give additional motivation to players. We worked to the smallest detail and took into account the experience of previous regimes. 
For bonds you can buy two types of rewards:
— improves the characteristics of the crew, but only lasts for one battle.
— increased performance of conventional equipment installed on the tank. They will be very expensive and in BONKS.
Pre-battle instructions and advanced equipment can be used together to maximize the strength of the tank. In the future, the possibility of adding BONS to other World modes of Tanks is a matter of time.
Changes in the economy. Ranked battles provide an additional funding system. Players are awarded a standard number of credits based on the results of the battle, plus financial bonuses are added for obtaining the next rank and completing special missions. Prize equipment and personal reserves are added to this. When the season of ranked battles comes to an end, participants are awarded bonds - a new monetary unit that cannot be purchased in the game store. Bonds are spent on the purchase of modernized equipment and “Pre-combat briefing”, which significantly improve the performance of the crew and the vehicle as a whole. The number of bonds awarded depends on the player’s performance. 
In the future, there will most likely be new ways to earn BONKS, but for now, in update 9.19 it is planned that ranked battles will be the only way. 
Bonds- new WoT currency, earned exclusively in the Republic of Belarus. Bonuses cannot be purchased, but can only be earned in the game, which are credited after the end of the season/stage. You can spend Bonuses on new equipment added in patch 9.19.
Improved equipment - increased performance of conventional equipment installed on the tank. They will be very expensive and in BONKS. 
Improved equipment purchased with bonds, where you cannot use two identical equipment on one tank. Installed in slots with conventional equipment. The cost in bonds is high, and can also be removed for 10 gold units. 
Pre-battle instructions - improve the characteristics of the crew, but only last one battle. Also, a new slot is added for additional BUFFS (pre-battle instructions), something similar to additional gold equipment that adds bonuses to equipment or crew, but only for one battle.
Pre-combat instructions - for equipment.
Increases the effect of installed equipment.
Pre-combat instructions - for crew.
It helps to upgrade a perk for one battle or improve an existing one, but you cannot get two effects at the same time. 
Use all the introduced innovations for bonds for absolutely any class of equipment and level, for all types of battles.
First, let's tell you when - V World update of Tanks 9.18 will appear new mode"Ranked Battles". The point of this mode is that all players will be divided into groups according to their personal rating in their profile. Tankers with the same personal rating will fight among themselves in “ranked battles”. The ranking system for tankers for WOT was borrowed from Blizzard and its Starcraft 2 project, where MMR has recently been introduced to all players. Depending on the MMR level, gamers are divided into leagues - Grandmaster, Master, Platinum, Gold, etc. Each league is divided into 3 groups - Tear 1, Tear 2 and Tear 3. Thus, by playing “ranked battles” you can move up the steps of glory. The same system will be introduced into World of Tanks gradually.
"Ranked Battles" - a new mode for World of Tanks
As soon as the “ranked battles” mode gains popularity, all players will be assigned its indicator and level, so that they can immediately assess how successfully a particular tanker fights. Every 3 months, statistics on “ranked battles” will be reset, giving everyone the opportunity to try their hand again in the new season. The result of each season will be recorded in the player's statistics.
For the successful implementation of the “ranked battles” mode in World of Tanks, a limitation on the level of equipment will be introduced. At the time the mode launches, these will only be level 10 tanks. Teams of 15 vs 15 tanks will fight for individual rank.
After the “ranked battle” takes place, your contribution to the team’s victory will be reflected in a special table. As Olga Sergeevna (pictured on the right) reported, the outcome of the battle in any ranked battle will not affect the result in the table. The higher you go in the “ranked battles” table, the more difficult your opponents become. Top players in the Ranked Battles mode will receive rewards at the end of each season.
As for the idea of creating a ranked mode for World of Tanks, it is focused on the e-sports component and the competitive effect that fuels interest in WOT as a whole.
Ranked battles are a new battle mode that is expected in update 9.19 and is already available. Battles consist of seasons and stages, at the end of which the player receives rewards, chevrons and new currency. Interesting?
What are ranked battles in World of Tanks
Ranked battle - random battle on Tier X vehicles, where the player’s main goal is to show high combat effectiveness. Ranked battles are noticeably different from traditional ones, and now you will find out why.
The main differences between ranked battles
- battles are held in seasons, which include stages. At the end of each stage the player receives a minor reward and a significant one at the end of the season;
- it doesn't matter whether the player wins or loses. It is important to show skills and abilities;
- battles are fought alone, without friends in the platoon;
- For high achievements in battle, the player is rewarded with improved equipment, a new currency “Bones” and instructions.
What are the deadlines for ranked battles?
To put it simply: let's say season lasts a month then stage lasts a week. Then there are 4 stages in one season. To be the best in the season, you need to be the best in every stage. The player can dial from 1 to 5 ranks per stage and at the end of each stage, statistics are compiled, according to which the tanker sees his own and other people’s results. Afterwards, the statistics are reset to zero and a new stage begins. You cannot lose the first and last (fifth) stage. The second, third and fourth are possible if you show bad results in ranked battles.There will be winners on the losing team
Even if the team lost, the first 3 places in the statistics after the battle will be awarded ranks. This is how developers highlight the best players, whose skills do not depend on the skills of everyone on the team.Improved equipment, bonds and instructions
Bonds- a new game currency that is awarded for efficiency in ranked battles.Advanced Equipment can be purchased for bonds (the developers warn in advance that their cost will be high). This equipment differs from standard equipment in improved characteristics. For example, a rammer with -15% reload time.
Instructions- new consumables that will also interact with the equipment. For example, -2.5% to the reload speed of the rammer, total: 10% + 2.5% = 12.5%.
