Ranked Sprint

The fifth season of the Ranked Sprint will start on July 3rd and will run for a week until July 10th. Due to the decrease in the number of days, the complexity of the season is reduced - by 5, 4 and 3 ranks you need to get one star less to reach the next rank. The rewards of the season remain unchanged.

Prepare for heated battles in two new seasons of Ranked Sprint on Tier VII ships.

The Rules have changed a little: the fifth season will be fought in Domination mode, and the sixth season—in the Updated Epicenter mode. If you missed the previous seasons of Ranked Sprint and want to know more about it, our article will answer your questions.




The rules are similar to the previous seasons of Ranked Sprint, but with some modifications. Battles will be fought on Tier VII ships in the Domination and Updated Epicenter game modes. Rewards for participation include special, economic, and combat signals; credits; and Coal for use in the Armory.

• Battles are fought in a 6 vs. 6 format. Team lineups are mirrored in terms of ship types.

• The maximum number of players in a Division is two.
  
• A Division can enter battle only if the opposing team also has a Division.
  
• Each team can have a maximum of three Divisions.
  
• Players from different leagues can't be members of the same Division.

• Rank 1 is the highest achievable rank.
  
• Players who reach the Rank 1 can no longer participate in further battles of the current season.

Battles will be fought on the following maps: Archipelago, Trident, Riposte, and Neighbors. They will use the following two modes:

• Domination: several variants of the layout of key areas are provided.
  
• Updated Epicenter: the center and rings can be captured independently; capturing the outer rings won’t be blocked if any of the inner rings have been captured by the enemy.

See you on the battlefield, Captains!
