To be considered "Diamond" in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III Ranked Play, you must achieve a Skill Rating (SR) between 5,400 and 7,499. This is the specific requirement to be at the Diamond rank.
Understanding Ranked Play Tiers in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III
In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III, your rank is determined by your Skill Rating (SR), which increases or decreases based on your performance in ranked matches. As you gain SR, you progress through various skill divisions, each with its own SR thresholds.
The Diamond rank signifies a high level of skill and consistent performance within the competitive environment. Players at this rank have surpassed several lower tiers and are approaching the highest echelons of competitive play.
Skill Rating Requirements for Top Ranks
To illustrate where Diamond stands among the higher skill divisions, consider the following SR requirements for the top tiers:
| Rank Tier | Skill Rating (SR) Required |
|---|---|
| Diamond | 5,400 - 7,499 |
| Crimson | 7,500 - 9,999 |
| Iridescent | 10,000 minimum |
| Top 250 | 10,000+ |
Progression Through Ranks
- Diamond: Achieving Diamond rank requires consistent victories and strong individual performance, pushing your SR above 5,400. This tier is a significant milestone for competitive players.
- Crimson: Players who exceed the Diamond threshold and reach 7,500 SR or more enter the Crimson tier, indicating an even higher level of expertise.
- Iridescent: The Iridescent rank is reserved for the elite, requiring a minimum of 10,000 SR. This tier represents the top percentage of players.
- Top 250: Beyond Iridescent, the Top 250 is a dynamic leaderboard for the absolute best players with 10,000+ SR, often fluctuating based on active play and SR changes.
To effectively "play with Diamond Cod" – meaning to compete at or within the Diamond skill level – your primary goal is to reach and maintain a Skill Rating within the 5,400 to 7,499 range in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III Ranked Play.
