Players put days of effort into progressing in the battle royale titles, such as Free Fire. It features tiers: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Heroic. Climbing up to them requires you to collect Ranked Points earned when you survive for an adequate time in a ranked match. Note that only those with a bound Garena account and who have reached level 8 can play ranked matches in the title. Furthermore, those with a guest account can play after reaching level 12.

Climbing up to FF tiers might sound fun since it yields exciting rewards and prestigious items that add to your cool in-game persona. However, it also pits you against more experienced and skillful players, making it harder to claim booyah. It's worth mentioning that upon reaching a high tier, failing to survive for an adequate time in a match or getting eliminated without claiming kills can immensely reduce your Ranked Points.

Considering all this, let's look at how you can rank up faster in Free Fire.

Disclaimer: Free Fire is banned in India. Readers in the region are advised against playing the game. Instead, they can play Free Fire Max, an India-exclusive and legal variant.

Tips and tricks to rank up in Free Fire

Understand your playstyle

Ranking up in Free Fire requires excellent team coordination. If you like solo matches, then your skill sets decide the likelihood of your victory. Moreover, understanding your playstyle also becomes essential while rank-pushing. It will help determine a better approach to dealing with the enemy and the weapons to opt for.

Early match gameplay

Your early match performance leaves a huge impact on your remaining game in Free Fire; it also often decides the end result. Here, your perfect landing plays a crucial role, as it decides the quality of loot and your location amidst your foes. If you are a passive player, you should avoid getting into early fights as they consist of most third-party attacks. You should change your location constantly while in combat to avoid being third-partied.

Moreover, landing in the middle of your chosen location leaves you surrounded by enemies. Land at the corners to avoid getting sandwiched.

Keep your eye on the circle

While in hasty combat, you should take heed of the shrinking circle. Players often fail to do this and find themselves running for a vehicle to cover the long distance. However, you should avoid getting into the middle of the zone, as it will encircle you with enemies. Instead, you can run along the circle and reach the end zone by taking covers. It will help avoid being at the center and locating your foes on the battlefield.

The last zone is the most crucial moment in Free Fire. Here, even your tiny decisions can lead you to Booyah or the lobby. If you are a rank pusher, you can wait for your enemies to fight and eliminate each other. This will effortlessly boost your chances of victory. You can also try to steal their kills by shooting the players they have knocked down.

Add more skills to your gameplay

Incorporating a more skillful playstyle into your gameplay is the most crucial aspect of rank pushing in Free Fire. The countless choices made from the given features of the game, such as character combinations, weapon combinations, HUD, and better utilization of loot, ultimately form your gameplay, which helps in rank pushing. Shifting to a three-finger setup also enhances your gameplay in all aspects.

It gives you swift movement speed and better accuracy and boosts your confidence, which is essential in Battle Royales.

Work on your weapon recoil control

Weapon recoil control skill is among the imperative skills you must learn if you've recently started your Free Fire journey. While titles like PUBG Mobile's weapon recoil are controlled by developing skills, the same in Free Fire has more to do with your sensitivity settings.

Note that no set of sensitivity settings can be considered ideal since they vary among players based on their preferences and playstyle.

That said, here is a set of sensitivity settings preferred by many Free Fire veterans:
