Player Ranks

Ever wondered what those stars and medals next to your name mean?

 

Pacifier

If you've played fewer than 4 games, your ranking will be a "pacifier" (a polite way of saying "n00b"): 

Stars

Stars show basic statistics about a player. There are three rows (top, middle, bottom) as follows:

StatisticPositionNo star Bronze Silver Gold
Units killedTop<150150+300+600+
Games playedMiddle<5050+100+200+
Games wonBottom<1010+40+80+

Medals

Medals are used to indicate your win:loss ratio:

MedalGames WonWin:Loss Ratio
 No medal<6<2:1
Silver Chevron6+2:1 or better
Double Chevron12+4:1 or better
Gold Star24+8:1 or better

Both requirements have to be met to achieve the medal. So, if you've won 20 games, but your win:loss ratio is less than 4:1, you'd get a Silver Chevron.

Summary

The lowest rank is the Pacifier – it means the player has played less than 4 games.

The highest rank is 3 gold stars and a gold star medal – it means the player has killed over 600 units, played over 200 games, won over 80 games and has a kill ratio of 8:1 or better.

For developers

Currently human player rankings aren't exposed to scripts – all human players will be set to MEDIUM difficulty, regardless of their rankings.

For information regarding Campaign and AI difficulties, see: Difficulty Levels.

To change the images, see: Images, Icons & Cursors.

Both single player and multiplayer skirmish games contribute to player ranks. So you could have a very high ranked player who's only ever played against AIs in single player games but they could be useless at multiplayer.
