Ladder Ranking
When participating in ladder tournaments, participants are ranked based on their result (Win/Loss/Tie).
Those ranks will mainly be determined either by Win Percentage, Win-Loss Differential or Total Wins, as chosen by the Organizer.
Ladders are commonly used as a Qualifier to another phase of a given competition, so you may see information regarding how many players are qualified.
In order fight for a qualifying spot, players need to play a minimum amount of matches, decided by the organizer. (If you don't have enough matches, you will always be ranked lower than those who have)
The automatic tiebreaker is based on the Total Matches Played. Organizers may use different or additional tiebreakers if necessary.
