Just going to post this for anyone who is confused on how it all works.

The ratings are as followed, Bronze -> Silver -> Gold -> Emerald -> Diamond -> Masters.

Each rating is also used with a number system of 1-5. Being a 5 in a specific rating means that is the lowest of said rating. For example, Emerald 5 is the lowest tier of all emerald ratings and comes directly after Gold 1. You pass through the ratings and gain points by defeating other players in specific ladders. Being a number 1 in a rating is the highest and when you earn enough points you will advance to the next tier. The exception to this is masters, Reaching the masters tier is the end due to the fact that no rating comes after it. If you reach masters and decide to continue playing on that ladder the system will simply add points to your overall total instead of advancing you. Each rating (1-5) is counted by a system out of 1000 points. When you defeat enough players in matches and gain 1000 points you will then play a promotion match. If you win the promotion match you will advance to the next rating and/or tier. There are also demotion matches for when you continue to lose matches. You will derank the the previous rating and/or tier of you lose this match. If you win the demotion match you will earn your points and have to play again as normal. When a promotion or demotion match comes up for you, you will receive a special message in chat as well as a noise alert in game.
