How Ranked System Works in Tekken 8
Much like most games in order to climb ranks in Tekken 8 you need to win matches to earn points. However, there are a few changes in the ranked system from the previous game, most notably the departure of Kyu ranks. You also won’t be demoted until you reach the Warrior Rank. As such, after hitting this division, each time you lose a match you also lose points.
Also, after hitting the Garyu rank it can get significantly harder to rank up due to the game now requiring more points before you reach each new rank. Last but not least, you cannot repeatedly rematch the same opponent, so you and your opponent only get two more rematches, making it a best-of-three. After that the game will disconnect the two and find each a new opponent.
