In many online games with ranking systems, such as League of Legends, players are grouped into tiers and divisions like Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, etc. Each tier reflects a player’s experience and performance, such as how long they’ve been playing and how many wins they’ve achieved.

While this is mainly a very simple UI concept, it’s actually a very cool one 😄

For example, if a user’s rank is above 50,000, they could be placed in a tier like Bronze, which can be displayed on their profile and also used as a filter when browsing members. If their rank is below 6,000, they could be Silver, and so on for the other tiers.

Features like this were very motivating for me personally. They encourage users to progress for the next tier within the community, serving as a strong source of motivation alongside of course the other elements like badges and achievements.

On top of that, tier-based badges could also be added, such as Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum badges when a user reaches one of these tiers, to further reinforce progression and recognition.
