Ranked Play scratches the competitive itch for players looking for more than a standard public match. The mode uses theCall of Duty Leagueruleset, which restricts certain guns, equipment, and Scorestreaks. Additionally, the mode uses the same 4v4 format, pool of maps, and game modes the pros play on.
Players climb the ranks and earn new Skill Divisions by winning matches to earn a spot in the illustrious Top 250. At the end of each season, rewards are given out based on which division you finish in.

We’ll probably need to wait and see which maps and weapons the CDL decides to use before we can know what will be available in Ranked Play, but Treyarch might just pick their own selection for the initial launch.
There are two new features this year. Before each match, three map and mode combinations are presented, and players can vote to veto one of the options. In addition, teams can vote to forfeit a match if they get blown out.
Warzone Ranked Playalso returns in Season 1 Reloaded, with more details in Early December.
