Brawl Stars Ranked runs from Bronze through Silver, Gold, Diamond, Mythic, Legendary and Masters to Pro. Each rank below Pro has three divisions, and you climb by earning Elo from wins. Mythic and above need 12 Brawlers at Power Level 11. Seasons reset monthly, and Diamond and higher players drop six minor ranks rather than back to Bronze.

This guide explains each rank, the Elo and Power Level rules, how resets work and how to climb with the Brawlers you already have. It is current as of October 2026. Check your Brawlers on the RankSurge Brawl Stars stats page as you read.

What are the Brawl Stars Ranked ranks in order?

Rank Divisions What to know
Bronze I to III Entry rank
Silver I to III Where Gold III and lower reset each month
Gold I to III Climb with Elo from wins
Diamond I to III From Diamond I up, resets drop six minor ranks
Mythic I to III Needs 12 Brawlers at Power 11; no floor protection
Legendary I to III 750 Elo per tier; harsher losses
Masters I to III 1,000 Elo per tier
Pro One rank The top; unlocks the esports path

Supercell reworked Ranked in February 2025, adding Pro above Masters and changing Elo, resets and rewards, per Supercell. The same post says about 1% of Ranked players reach Masters.

How does Elo work in Brawl Stars Ranked?

Ranked uses Elo, not trophies. A win adds Elo and a loss removes it, and you move up a division each time your Elo passes the next threshold. At the top, Supercell set each Legendary tier at 750 Elo and each Masters tier at 1,000 Elo. Gains get larger as you climb, but so do losses from Legendary up.

  • Floor protection: lower ranks protect you from dropping too far. From Mythic up that protection is gone, so a bad streak can send you back to Diamond.
  • Trophies are separate: the trophies on each Brawler come from normal modes. They do not change your Ranked rank, and Ranked does not change them.

What do you need to reach Mythic and above?

Supercell requires 12 Brawlers at Power Level 11 to play Mythic and higher. Three maxed trial Brawlers rotate each season and count toward that number, per Supercell. If you are short, plan your upgrades around Brawlers that fit the current Ranked maps instead of spreading coins across every Brawler.

Your RankSurge Brawl Stars dashboard counts how many Brawlers you have at Power 11, and your profile lists your top 10 Brawlers with power level and trophies.

How do Ranked seasons and resets work?

Ranked seasons are monthly and start on the third Thursday of each month. At the reset, players at Diamond I or higher drop six minor ranks from where they finished. Players at Gold III or lower reset to Silver I. Ranked rewards come through the Pro Pass, which runs for four months alongside esports events, per Supercell.

  • Plan your push: the first days after a reset are a good time to climb back while players are spread out.
  • Check the end date: the in-game Ranked screen shows when the current season ends.

How can you climb faster in Ranked?

  1. Play your best Brawlers: sort your Brawlers by trophies and pick from the top of the list. Ranked is not the place to learn a new Brawler.
  2. Prepare for the map pool: have two or three picks ready for each map and mode in the rotation, so a ban does not leave you guessing.
  3. Team up: a regular teammate who talks through picks and bans before the draft wins more than three strangers.
  4. Stop after two losses: take a break before the third. Tilted games cost more Elo at the top, where losses are harsher.
  5. Review your battles: recent battles show which maps and modes you lose most. Change picks there first.

Which mistakes cost the most Elo?

  • First-picking a counter-able Brawler: in drafts, an early pick that is easy to counter gives the other team a free answer. Save flexible picks for early and specialists for late.
  • Ignoring the mode: the right Brawler for Gem Grab is not always right for Brawl Ball or Knockout. Pick for the mode and map, not just your favorite.
  • Playing alone in a team mode: chasing kills while your team holds the objective loses games. Stay near your teammates and play the win condition.
  • Queuing tired: from Legendary up, losses take more Elo than wins give back. Short, focused sessions protect your rank.
  • Upgrading everything at once: spreading coins and power points across every Brawler slows the push to 12 at Power 11. Finish the Brawlers you play first.

Your recent battles on RankSurge show the mode, map, result and trophy change for each game, which makes these patterns easy to spot after a session.

It also helps to keep a short list of the Brawlers your team plays best together, so the draft becomes a quick choice rather than a debate. Agree on bans before the match and save the remaining time for picking.

How can RankSurge help you climb?

Look up your tag on the Brawl Stars stats page to see your top Brawlers, your Power 11 count, your club and recent battles, then ask RankSurge AI which Brawlers to push. Compare yourself with a teammate in AI Profile Pick, and save your tag in the Player Hub. More guides are in the Guide Library.

Frequently asked questions

What are the ranks in Brawl Stars Ranked?

Brawl Stars Ranked runs from Bronze through Silver, Gold, Diamond, Mythic, Legendary and Masters, each with three divisions, up to Pro at the top. You climb by earning Elo from wins and lose Elo on defeats. Pro is the highest rank and unlocks the in-game path toward Brawl Stars esports for players who want to compete.

How much Elo do you need to rank up in Brawl Stars?

Supercell's February 2025 Ranked update says each Legendary tier takes 750 Elo and each Masters tier takes 1,000 Elo. Elo gains are larger at the top, but losses are also harsher from Legendary up. The exact Elo for lower ranks is shown in game. Watch your progress bar on the Ranked screen rather than counting single games.

What do you need to play Mythic and above?

Supercell requires 12 Brawlers at Power Level 11 to play Mythic and above. Three maxed trial Brawlers rotate each season and count toward that requirement, which helps if you are a few Brawlers short. Floor protection also ends at Mythic, so from there a losing streak can drop you back into Diamond.

When does Brawl Stars Ranked reset?

Ranked seasons are monthly and start on the third Thursday of the month, per Supercell. At the reset, players at Diamond I or higher drop six minor ranks from where they finished, rather than starting over at Bronze. Players at Gold III or lower reset to Silver I. Your trophies on Brawlers are a separate system and are not reset by Ranked.

How do you climb faster in Brawl Stars Ranked?

Play the Brawlers you already win with, not the ones you want to learn. Check which maps and modes are in the current rotation and have two or three picks ready for each. Play with a regular teammate if you can, talk about bans and picks before the draft, and stop for a break after two losses in a row.

Can I check my Brawl Stars stats on RankSurge?

Yes. Paste your player tag on the RankSurge Brawl Stars page to see your trophies, your top 10 Brawlers with power level and trophies, your victories, club and recent battles.
