Ranked Battles: Waves of Supremacy

Captains, prepare for two new seasons of Ranked Battles in this update! You'll get to enjoy 2 weeks of exciting battles featuring Tier VI and Tier VII warships, with prizes awaiting you as you rank up. 

A quick overview of how Ranked Battles work: your aim is to win battles, earn Stars, and climb the ranks. In a lost battle, you keep your Star if you finish as the best player on your team in terms of gained XP. A draw counts as a loss for both teams. Reaching Rank 1 makes you ineligible to participate for the rest of the season—it means that you're already among the best, so give others a chance to play! 

As always, we’ve prepared a bunch of prizes for you, including crates; Commander Progression Items; credits; and up to 1,200 Steel for each season. Check the infographics to see how rewards are distributed each season. The better you perform, the more rewards you'll get! The prizes are distributed upon reaching the corresponding ranks, except for the 200 Steel for reaching Rank 3, which you receive after the season ends. 

Let’s take a detailed look at the rewards and the rules for each of the upcoming seasons.
