Tip: Rating floors prevent you from dropping below a certain threshold, often after a promotion or at tier boundaries.
How to Use This Tool
Enter your current rating, select your game or mode, input your current loss streak, and choose your demotion protection setting. Click "Calculate Floor" to see your estimated rating floor and risk level. Use "Reset" to clear all fields and start over.
Formula and Logic
The calculator estimates your rating floor by subtracting points lost per loss from your current rating, adjusted for game-specific base floors and protection rules. Points per loss vary by game: League (25), Overwatch (20), Valorant (15), Apex (30). Demotion protection reduces effective losses by the number of protected games.
Practical Notes
- Rating floors are often tied to tier boundaries (e.g., Gold IV in League) and prevent dropping below them.
- Patch updates can change point loss values or protection mechanics—always check patch notes.
- RNG factors like matchmaking can affect actual losses, but this tool uses averages.
- Performance scaling: Higher-rated players may lose more points per loss in some games.
Why This Tool Is Useful
This tool helps you plan your gaming sessions by understanding your risk of dropping ranks. It's useful for streamers managing viewer expectations, competitive players avoiding demotions, and game designers testing ladder systems.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if my game isn't listed?
Select "Standard (Generic)" for a baseline calculation, or adjust the points per loss manually in your notes.
Can this tool predict exact future ratings?
No, it estimates based on averages and current settings. Actual results depend on matchmaking, opponent skill, and in-game events.
How does demotion protection work?
Protection prevents point loss for a set number of games after promotion or at tier floors, varying by game. This tool lets you customize or auto-detect it.
Additional Guidance
For best results, combine this tool with your game's official ladder rules. Track your actual losses to refine estimates. If you're a streamer, use this to set realistic goals for your audience.
