Treyarch, we can always count on you. In the midst of the mess that was laid in Modern Warfare 2 by Infinity Ward, the Black Ops developers have come to save the day - doing away with the shabby CDL moshpit and finally implementing Ranked.

Ranked will arrive in Modern Warfare 2 courtesy of the Season 2 update, allowing players to grind through games and build up a steady flow of points towards their Skill Rating.

But if the incentive to be the best player in the game wasn't enough to scratch your competitive itch, the Modern Warfare 2 Ranked mode offers one of the biggest portfolios of rewards the franchise has ever seen.

Modern Warfare 2 Ranked Mode Details Mass Rewards 

The Ranked mode comes with eight "Divisions" (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Crimson, Iridescent, and Top 250) and fifty "ranks" that can be worked through regardless of your skill rating. 

With every player starting in Bronze, the skill pool will give equal opportunity to all players to get wins on the board. You can level up through the ranks and divisions to reach the highest point you can before the season ends.

What's most intriguing is that the developers are finally adding ample rewards for your efforts. The MW2 Ranked mode will offer a total of five exclusive Operator skins each season and a barrage of other customisation features like weapon camos, charms, gun

Fans Are Loving The MW2 Ranked Rewards

After just five wins, players will unlock skins in Ranked, flexing on players, and more will become available with every set of five wins until the peak of 50 is achieved.

Then, come the end of the season, you will receive skins for your respective divisions, injecting a massive swag element into the game.

"Honestly, this Ranked Play system sounds like it would be the best since WW2 and much better than the Black Ops 2 League Play system," said one fan, echoing the communities' excitement. 

Another fan added, "this will be the pinnacle of all ranked modes." Not everyone is convinced, though. One critic grumbled, "Unfortunately NOTHING will ever come close to being as good as Black Ops 2 League Play was. And yes I know it wasn't perfect, but it was. It'll never be that good again, you just had to be there."

The devs are even implementing leaving penalties from the get-go, alleviating the biggest issue that CoD ranked usually gets, and it appears fans can't wait to get stuck in.
