Queueing

Rank Queue is open to everyone, no placement requirement — every match moves your MMR and band.
Join with /q (or /queue), leave with /l (or /leave).
Once a queue fills to 6 players, everyone in that match is locked out of queueing until the match is reported.
Right after a pop, vote for the match length — Best of 3, 5, or 7 — before the Balanced/Captains vote. A shorter series moves your MMR less (Best of 3 = 0.6x), a longer one moves it more (Best of 7 = 1.4x); Best of 5 is the normal rate.
After a pop, vote for Balanced teams or a Captains draft. Set a default with /vote-defaultso you don't have to vote every time.
Once teams are set, there's a short cooldown before /report is accepted — long enough that the series could plausibly have actually finished: 10 minutes for Best of 3, 15 for Best of 5, and 20 for Best of 7.
Didn't get reported? A match auto-cancels after 2 hours with no MMR change. You can also vote it away early with /cancel (4 of 6 players) or call out an AFK teammate with /abandon (3 of the other 5).

Win 3 Rank Queue games in a row and you get a 🔥 next to your name — in bot messages and on the Main Leaderboard.
From that 3rd win onward, each extra win in the streak adds a small bonus on top of your normal MMR gain — the longer the streak, the bigger the bonus (it caps out on longer streaks).
Reach a 5+ game streak and the bot posts a public shoutout for it.
A single loss resets your streak to zero — bonus included.
Lose 3 Rank Queue games in a row and you get a 🥶 next to your name instead — same bot messages and Main Leaderboard treatment as the fire streak, but purely visual with no effect on MMR.

Bonus Range runs from Saturday through Sunday — Rank Queue MMR gains and losses are boosted by +50% the whole time.
The window starts at midnight Pacific time on the first day and ends at midnight Pacific time the day after the final day.
What matters is when your match pops(fills to 6/6) — if that happens inside the window, you keep the bonus even if you don't report until after it closes.
The win-streak bonus above stacks with the Bonus Range.

Four skill bands, low to high: Iron → Garnet → Emerald → Sapphire, split by MMR percentile: Iron (bottom 20%), Garnet (20th–50th percentile), Emerald (50th–80th percentile), Sapphire (top 20%).
Prism is a live tier for Sapphire players who are also currently in the top 3 Sapphire players by MMR (with at least 8 Rank Queue games played this season) — you gain and lose it the instant your standing crosses that line, not just at season close.
Your band is based on how your MMR compares to everyone else's, recalculated daily and also right after your own matches.
You can queue Rank Queue immediately, but you'll need to play 3 Rank Queue gamesbefore you're assigned a real band — until then you show as unranked.
Promotions happen the moment you qualify. Demotions are softer — you get a 0-game grace period right after moving up, and after that you need to fall clearly below the cutoff, not just brush it, before dropping back down.

Values reflect current standings and shift as players climb, drop, and place — treat them as approximate, not fixed thresholds.
