How Do I Qualify For Division Rivals?

After you've completed 5 placement games in Division Rivals, you will be put into a division based on your results.

From here you can play your games, climb divisions and earn rewards.

Ranks And Divisions

In total there are 10 Divisions, you can get promoted or relegated depending on your skill rating and the threshold needed to reach a division.

When you win a game, you will gain skill rating points. If you draw, you will only gain a small number of points or potentially lose points (depending on your skill rating, the division you're in and the skill rating of your opponent). If you lose, you will lose skill rating points.

On the rewards side, there are weekly ranks. Each rank requires a certain number of points to reach it.

To rank, you need to play a minimum of 1 game. The Top ranks are determined by the highest number of points and the higher your rank, the better your rewards.

Unlike other modes, the threshold for each rank changes as the week progresses. The more points the competition gains, the more you will need to grab as well or risk falling a rank.

In total, there are 6 ranks to achieve.

Tips And Tricks

Here are some simple tips and tricks to help you in FUT Champions:

  • Usually, rank 3 will give you the best rewards for the time spent on the mode. It usually requires only a handful of wins to stay in rank 3.
  • There is a degree of skill-based matchmaking in Division Rivals, as you're playing people within a similar division and skill rating. The higher you climb, the harder your opponents will get so you need to make sure you're ready for every challenge.
  • Try to play at off-peak times as this is when the servers can get overloaded causing lag and button delay.
  • Be careful not to settle for a draw as you can still lose points depending on your ranking.
  • Experiment with different styles and teams against similarly skilled opponents to give you the edge for FUT Champions.
