Ranked Mode
Ranked Mode is a gamemode in Predecessor, played on Sanctuary.
Requirements
- Player account level must be 20 or higher.
- Player account must have unlocked at least 20 heroes.
- Player account must be in good standing and not subject to any ongoing matchmaking bans.
- Initially, these 20 heroes can be a combination of fully unlocked heroes and heroes that the player has access to via free rotation. This is subject to change over time.
- Additionally, when playing with friends, the player can only queue up with one who is of a similar rank.
Draft
Standard draft rules apply.
- 5 versus 5 players.
- Each player selects their role at the start of the drafting phase, between Offlane, Jungle, Midlane, Carry, Support or Fill. If several players chose the same role, only one random player will be assigned the role while others will be assigned a random unassigned role.
- Each Team can then vote to ban one hero, determined by the amount of votes each hero receives. If two or more heroes received an equal amount of votes, the banned hero is decided at random. Both teams can ban the same hero.
- Each player takes turns picking their hero, in a random predetermined order. First a single Dawn player picks their hero, then two Dusk players pick, then two Dawn players, two Dusk players, two Dawn players and finally one Dusk player.
- Players are not allowed to pick the same hero more than once per team. Hero mirror picks are allowed.
- Each team can see the enemy Team's hero picks.

Rewards
At the end of each Ranked Mode season, the player will be rewarded based on two criteria.
- The rank that they have finished with at the end of the season.

These rewards will be given out after a season has finished and will include all kinds of exclusive items such as profile icons and banners, so look out for specific information for each season.
