Quick Start

The shortest path to your first ranked battle.

Start in 3 minutes

If you haven’t installed yet, finish Installation first. This page picks up once the mod is on the server.


Step 1. Start the server

Drop the mods into mods/ and boot up. Config files generate on their own, and the defaults are ready to play right away.

Step 2. Set up one arena

You need at least one arena. Stand where each player should be and register it:

/rankedadmin arena create arena1 pos1     # player 1's spot
/rankedadmin arena create arena1 pos2     # player 2's spot
/rankedadmin arena create arena1 exit     # where to send players after the battle

Full details in Arena Setup.

Step 3. Open the menu

In chat, type:

/ranked

The ranked menu opens with the player’s rating, the leaderboard, and a Join Queue button.

Step 4. Join the queue

Click Join Queue for the format you want (Singles, Doubles, or Triples). The server looks for an opponent at a similar rating.

Step 5. Match, then battle

A “Match Found!” prompt appears when someone’s found. Click Ready, get teleported to the arena, and the battle starts.

Join Queue → Match → Ready check → Team selection → Lead selection → Battle → Results

From match to lead selection and battle start

Win to climb, lose to drop. That’s the whole loop.


Commands you’ll use

CommandWhat it does
/rankedOpens the ranked menu (rating, leaderboard, queue)
/casualOpens the casual menu (practice, rating doesn’t move)

Just want to practice?

/casual runs the same flow without touching rating. Good for warming up or trying a new team.
