If you have followed me for more than a few hours, you know I love Halo. It has been my favorite franchise since C. From endless split-screen hollering with friends to competitive LAN parties, local tournaments, and, of course, competitive online play, Halo has been a staple part of my gaming routine for over 22 years.

Ranked multiplayer has been a cornerstone of the online Halo experience since way back in when Halo 2 released. Over the years, the ranked experience in Halo has taken many shapes and forms, but the goals have always remained the same — provide all players with a fair, balanced, and fun competitive experience where you can test your skill and earn new ranks all on your way to becoming a better Halo player than you were the day before. For each sub-rank within a rank, 1 represents the base sub-rank and 6 represents the highest sub-rank. Currently, Onyx is the highest rank offered in Halo Infinite. There is no hard cap on this rank.

About Matchmaking social, ranks and stuff

Halo: The Master Chief Collection employs two different ranking systems across its various components. At launch, the game included a skill-based system based on the original Halo 2 for competitive multiplayer, though the launch of the game on PC platforms has since seen an update to include an additional ranking scheme based on unlocking cosmetic content via the Seasonal updates. The skill-based rank structure was employed by the Master Chief Collection at launch and now employed only in the competitive playlists, and is identical in every way to the rank structure employed in the original release of Halo 2 - including XP requirements, gains and losses. Due to its nature as an indicator of player skill, ranks can increase or decrease depending on player performance, and are thus used to help with skill-based matchmaking to ensure similarly-skilled teams. This rank structure is only employed in competitive playlists, and is determined on a per-playlist basis.
