MTG Arena Ranks
There are six MTG Arena ranks, most of which have four individual tiers. When you first start playing, you’ll be in the Bronze rank. It will come as no surprise to see that the next few ranks see the quality of metal increase as you move to Silver, Gold and Platinum.
After Platinum is Diamond and the top of the mountain is Mythic. Each ranked season only lasts around one month meaning you have around four weeks to cement your rank before a reset occurs. You are not reset to Bronze at the end of each month but instead are typically taken by back two whole ranks. As an example, if you finish a season at Mythic, you’ll start the next season in Platinum.

Rank Tiers and Progression
Each rank has four tiers to work through. You must meet achieve six points to progress out of a tier. Up to the Gold tier, wins earn you two points and losses incur a one-point deduction. If you hit Platinum and Diamond, it’s a 1:1 ratio for wins/loses meaning you’ll have to maintain a decent win percentage to progress.
Once you reach Mythic, your points are replaced with a percentage. This is the percentile in which you sit among active players. Once you reach a high enough percentile, your number will be replaced with a rank. This usually happens when you enter the top 1200 active players. There is a lot more at play here at a deeper level. You can read about that here.
