They just showed this on the livestream.

Seems like the max level is 500, With new borders every 100 levels.

Super excited for this.

Edit: Correction level 500 isn't max, It's just the last border but leveling is actually infinite!

is it retroactive?

Yes and no. We're granting players a flat amount for each match played before the feature launched. We definitely wanted to recognize players that have invested time into the game. However, the amount is not based on match duration or first wins of the day.

Is the leveling system going to be added to the process of making a comp ready account?
Similar to games like Siege and LoL, making a certain level a requirement to play comp would go a long way to reducing smurfs in contrast to the current 10 wins in unrated requirement.

At feature launch, this will be independent from Competitive. I don't know if there are plans one way or another around a model like League.

Will Spike Rush matches count retroactively, or just unrated/ranked?

but is it just a number or do you actually win stuff?

Your border will grow over time, but there is currently no other content or currency associated with the number going up

My level and a lot of other people in my game's level was at 7, even though I've played a decent bit of this game. Is this a glitch, a coincidence, or are levels from gameplay before this patch capped at 7?

A cap was not intended. We're looking into this issue now. Sorry about this!
