Competitive

Overview

Competitive is the ranked 3v3 playlist of The Crucible: wins lead to Promotions and losses to Relegations in your Competitive Division. Since Update 7.3.6 it features Collision and 3v3 Clash (replacing Survival and Countdown Rush); earlier it ran Survival, Rift and Showdown. Matchmaking is strict, by skill rank.

Divisions

Seven divisions, each with three tiers: Copper, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Adept, Ascendant. Seven placement games set your start. At Adept and above you play a Promotion Series (win two of three); losing in danger of derank triggers a Relegation Series (win two of three). Points come from kills, assists, objective play and wins, with a catch-up bonus; after Gold III you decay with inactivity unless you play three matches a week (Division Protection Points).

Rewards

Your division sets how many weekly weapon-focusing options you get (none unplaced, up to seven at Ascendant) and a Valor multiplier (1.0x to 1.5x). Gear pool includes the Triumphal Anthem and Last Discipline armor sets.
