Diamond 4 players in Wild Rift can queue with all divisions of Emerald and Diamond ranks. This tier marks a point where matchmaking restrictions tighten to ensure competitive integrity.
Understanding Rank Compatibility for Diamond 4
When you reach Diamond IV, the system allows for a specific range of ranks to be your teammates or opponents in ranked queues. This ensures that matches remain fair and challenging for players at this skill level. The general rule for Diamond IV and Diamond III is that they can play with anyone in the Emerald and Diamond tiers.
Specifically, Diamond 4 players can group with the following ranks:
- Emerald Ranks:
- Emerald IV
- Emerald III
- Emerald II
- Emerald I
- Diamond Ranks:
- Diamond IV
- Diamond III
- Diamond II
- Diamond I
It's important to note the restriction that applies once you hit these higher tiers: Diamond IV players cannot queue with Master rank players or any rank higher than Master (such as Grandmaster or Challenger). This strict rule helps maintain the competitive balance at the very top of the ladder, where the stakes are significantly higher.
For a clearer overview, refer to the table below:
| Your Rank | Playable With (Lower Ranks) | Playable With (Same/Higher Ranks) | Cannot Play With (Higher Ranks) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diamond IV | All Emerald Divisions | All Diamond Divisions | Master, Grandmaster, Challenger |
This matchmaking design ensures that while players can still group with friends in adjacent tiers, the gap isn't so wide that it creates unfair matches. For more detailed information on Wild Rift's ranked system, you can often find comprehensive guides on the official Wild Rift support page.
