Hello, I just spent the last few days working my way up to Champion in Hyperscape and I wanted to know if it will give me a cosmetic, a cool trail or something in the next season? I think that would be amazing and rewarding considering I had to play solo with majority level 10 randoms against stacked teams to eventually get my badge. If the badges don’t have any meaning in the next upcoming seasons then I don’t think there will be a real purpose/drive for playing ranked in upcoming seasons.

A few streamers call it a “participation badge.” And I refuse to believe that’s the case.. especially with how challenging the matches can be :( I hope that in future there will be some type of “ranked badges” with “trails” or a champion cosmetic thing (but if you make a skin please make it gender neutral 🙏) in the avatar customization place so that you can equip the badge with a trail or cosmetic, or anything on your character just to show off the accomplishment.

I don’t know if it was a “participation badge” for high skilled streamers that were three stacking for 6 hours a day in trios but for me I had finally accomplished something big in a game and I hope I get the chance to always have a badge or cosmetic that represents that. 💜

Hey! I just wanted to remind that the current system is just the first iteration of it. I personally think there are definitely possibilities for cosmetic items as rewards for hitting certain ranks in the future. However, this iteration of the Player Rankings is subject to balancing and potential resets, so the team wants to focus on making sure the system is solid! I've seen discussions about how Champion is a little too easy for some players which should be looked back into.
