* About Network Colors

Color ratings represent a player’s online skill level and will be applied to all online matches.

In the past, Versus Ranks were the representation of a player’s skill In the past, Versus Ranks were the representation of a player’s skill in Ranked Matches, while ★ marks represented players with similar skill levels in Online Lobbies and Room Matches. To more accurately represent players’ skill levels and facilitate more matches between players of similar levels, the ★mark has been replaced with color ratings.

Players should think of the Versus Rank as skill in Ranked Matches and the color rating as a player’s overall skill level, including Lobby Matches.

*The in-game description of color ratings was unclear and will be adjusted accordingly in a future update.

■Before （Ver 2.01）

Ranked matches will pair players with similar color ratings if possible but winning against a higher-rated player can greatly increase your color rating.

■After

Wins against players with lower colors will have little effect on your color rating, but wins against players with similar or higher color ratings will have a greater effect.

Ranked Match

In Ranked Match, players with Master Versus Ranks will now receive Master Points.

Master Points will increase/decrease with a player’s wins/losses.

In Ranked Match, if a player cannot find an opponent with the same Versus Rank for a certain period of time, they will now be paired with another player of a different Versus Rank.

If the Versus Rank is different, the winner will be compensated with victory stars.

The number of victory stars needed for a promotion has been changed from 1 to 2.

If the Versus Rank is below C5, it is now possible to reset the Versus Rank back to C5.

Select “Ranked Match” > “Reset Versus Rank” to use this feature.

Once a match has been set and confirmed by the player on the Ranked Match Entry screen, the player can cancel the match if the opponent has not confirmed.
