Leaderboards & Rankings
Triple Triad Extreme features a comprehensive ranking system that tracks player performance across all seven competitive game modes.
Rank Tiers
Your ELO rating determines your rank tier. Each tier has its own name and color, themed after Final Fantasy job classes:
| Tier | ELO Range | Color |
|---|---|---|
| Freelancer | 0 - 999 | Grey |
| Mercenary | 1000 - 1099 | Green |
| Operative | 1100 - 1199 | Blue |
| Specialist | 1200 - 1299 | Purple |
| Commander | 1300 - 1399 | Orange |
| Champion | 1400 - 1499 | Red |
| Grand Master | 1500+ | Gold |
New players start at 1000 ELO (Mercenary tier).
Per-Mode Rankings
Each game mode has its own separate ELO rating. Your TTE rank is completely independent from your OTT rank, Chinchirorin rank, etc. This means you can be a Grand Master in TTE but a Freelancer in Sphere Break.
| Game Mode | Rank Field |
|---|---|
| Triple Triad Extreme (TTE) | TTE Rank |
| Omni Triple Triad (OTT) | OTT Rank |
| Triple Triad Warfare (TTW) | TTW Rank |
| Triple Triad Memory (TTM) | Memory Rank |
| Team Omni Triad (TOTT) | TOTT Rank |
| Chinchirorin (CHIN) | CHIN Rank |
| Sphere Break (SB) | SB Rank |
How ELO Works
The ELO system uses a K-factor of 32:
- Beat a higher-rated player = large rating increase
- Beat a lower-rated player = small rating increase
- Lose to a higher-rated player = small rating decrease
- Lose to a lower-rated player = large rating decrease
AI matches do not affect your ELO rating. Only multiplayer matches count.
