Ranked matches and lobbies are hands-down the best way to compete against players of a similar skill level to your own. Sure, casual games are fun. Meanwhile, custom games might have led you to believe that you're better than all your friends. But, if you think you're ready to find out how you match up against opponents more your skill level, ranked matches are the way to do it.
But if you're already playing rank, and still don't know how you compare against the rest of the world, don't worry, this article will guide you through ranked lobbies and let you know the average player rank in Halo Infinite. When did Halo Infinite start ranked play? Halo Infinite, unlike previous Halo games, and like most games from the more recent batch of first-person shooters, has let players compete in ranked matches since it launched. Put it simply, this means that the sooner you got on the game and started playing ranked, the higher up you probably are on the ladder right now.
Having said that, the ranked system requires that you complete 10 matches of ranked play to gain your first ranked placement. Most players end up in Diamond 1 after the placement matches. How you ascend or descend the ranks from there is completely up to you.
