## What is Mastery?

Mastery represents your skill level in the game. Higher Mastery results in stronger opponents during Ranking Matches. Mastery affects the ranking points you receive:

* **Higher Mastery = More Ranking Points** obtained from victories.
* **Higher Mastery = Fewer Ranking Points** deducted from losses.

5. **Master**

Each tier is further divided into three levels: Level 1, Level 2, Level 3. **Example**: Bronze I, Bronze II, Bronze III -> Silver I, Silver II, Silver III
