Call of Duty Black Ops 6 is considered one of the hardest competitive shooters in the world. The game is filled with die-hard fans who have been playing this game for over two decades. Some of them make a living out of it, while some of these fanatics make their life’s mission playing this game, which makes the situation for new players a whole lot worse.
So, if you are new to the game, prepare yourself for a beating because these players are there for a hardcore competitive experience and do not tolerate amateurs. In this blog, we are going to talk about it extensively.
We will discuss how you can make your way into the ranked play of Call of Duty Black Ops 6, how you can find players who are willing to teach you, and lastly, how you can be the best player on the server and dominate the ranked mode. The only thing you have to do is be consistent and improve upon yourself. So, let’s begin.
How to unlock ranked:
The first step you need to take is to unlock the ranked mode of the game. You can do this by winning 50 matches in multiplayer, and there are multiple ways of doing it. First, you can lend your account to a trusted friend and let them get those wins, which will save you time and energy.
Second, just get account leveling from a boosting company. And the last way is to just drag yourself and win the 50 matches on your own. So, if you want to take a path of self-learning and winning, here are some tips that will help you unlock the ranked mode.
You should play matches that are the quickest to go by since 50 wins is a lot to get and could take up almost a week if not done correctly. So, you should either get into the Face Off Moshpit or the Team Deathmatches. Both of these game modes are pretty quick and are easily winnable since you can get carried pretty much every time.
If you don’t want to take chances on randoms carrying you, then you should probably play with a duo and let your friend carry you. This 50-win mark will go by in a breeze if you happen to play with a friend.
If you want to improve your game sense and aim, then you can also play the Free for All Deathmatch. In this mode, you will only have to get placed in the top 3 to be considered a win. So, you’ll get your skills developed as well as your wins.
Additional Tips to Speed Up the Process
If you’re struggling to grind all 50 wins yourself, consider joining online gaming communities where skilled players help each other level up faster. Playing with a coordinated squad not only makes winning easier but also improves your teamwork and strategy.
Additionally, if you’re short on time and want to focus on ranked matches rather than the unlocking process, using rank boosting can be a viable option. Professional players can help you unlock ranked mode quickly, allowing you to jump straight into competitive play without grinding unnecessary matches.
Another trick is to focus on game modes that favor your playstyle. If you’re good at aggressive gameplay, objective-based modes like Hardpoint or Domination might get you faster wins. On the other hand, if you prefer methodical play, Team Deathmatch can be a safer option.
By using these strategies, you’ll not only unlock ranked mode faster but also gain valuable experience that will help you climb the ranks more efficiently.
What to do after unlocking the ranked mode:
So, after getting your 50 wins, what do you have to do? You have to set your priorities straight about what you specifically want. Is it just playing a game with your friends, or do you want to have a higher rank in the game? You would have to make a choice here, and then you have to follow through with that plan.
So, let’s say if you want to play with your friends, then you would only have to get a rank within a division of your friend. So, if your friend is in the Gold division, you should aim to land in that rank division or the closest to that. Because if you get placed too high or too low, in both cases, you and your friend can’t queue together.
But if you want to have a good or even great rank in the game, then you would have to make some choices and stick with them since the competition in Call of Duty Black Ops 6 is extremely high, and getting a perfect rank is much more difficult than it used to be.
How to rank up in the game:
Regardless of your current rank, there are three things you can improve upon to get a better rank and not be stuck in the same rank division forever. These are some of the tips that will help you get the best rank that you can get.
Improve your HPR (Hidden Performance Rating):
After getting placed in a rank, you must increase your HPR. This is the single most determining factor of your SR (Skill Rating) earnings. There are two things that will help you in increasing the HPR. The first is to win against someone who has a rank of one or two divisions ahead of you. Killing them multiple times in a single match likely increases your HPR; thus, your SR earnings will increase.
The second thing is to win the matches dominantly since there’s not a whole lot of context about how the ranking system and its algorithm work. We just have to keep guessing ourselves. But fortunately, Activision did tell us that SR earnings are also affected by the team’s performance.
Now, to improve your HPR, the next most logical thing to do is to find good teammates who can dominate the match alongside you. Winning matches dominantly regularly will increase your HPR through the roof and thus will heavily increase your SR earnings.
Trigger discipline:
This might be subjective because everybody has different weaknesses. Some players have good aim but really bad movement, while others can move swiftly, but their aim can’t keep up with that. So, I am talking in general about how to get more kills in the game.
The first thing you need to learn is to be precise and how to take calculated shots. Since Call of Duty is not a tactical shooter, most people play it like an arcade shooter and try to aim at everything and shoot everything. But when you do that, you lose your precision and a chance to get the drop on the enemies. So, you have to learn about trigger discipline, letting one enemy pass and get more information about where the other enemies are instead of shooting that enemy right then and there.
The game is about information; the more information you have about your enemy’s locations, the easier it will be to kill the enemies. Cohesively keeping you calm in the game and not getting greedy and pushing enemies is also a skill that you have to learn—when to push and when not to.
Try to communicate more:
You might have heard this a hundred times before, but communicating with your teammates is the single most beneficial thing you can do for the team. But you have to communicate clearly and concisely. What I mean by that is clearly speak about where you saw the enemy you spotted and concisely tell your teammates where they went.
Learn the map callouts and use them to clear any doubts about enemy locations. Most of the time, the difference between good teams and great teams is about their in-game communication
