Rocket League's MMR system is profoundly important as a method of balancing the game. How does it work, though, and how do you check your MMR in Rocket League?
As in any other game, MMR is unbelievably important in Rocket League, defining the kinds of games you will play and the kinds of opponents you will face. In many cases it can be the difference between playing fun yet competitive games, getting absolutely crushed, or the game being far too easy. With Rocket League being the Ranked grind it is, it's probably about time that you check it out yourself.
Just a heads-up: What we're talking about today has nothing to do with RL's Rank Distribution. It also doesn't affect the Rocket Pass that gets released each new season. That, my friends, is a very different thing to MMR, the glue that holds Rocket League together as a whole.

MMR In Rocket League Explained
MMR stands for Matchmaking Rank, and is a score that determines who you face off against in Rocket League. It's a hidden number that corresponds to one of 23 ranks that you can be placed within. The idea is to make sure that you are playing against other players who are of a similar skill level to you.
MMR is also made up of a bunch of different statistics in Rocket League. It's not only about winning, but also about the relative MMR of your opponent. Thus, if your opponent has a higher rank than you, you'll probably get more of a boost if you win, and less of a subtraction if you lose.
While you're playing Rocket League with friends, everyone is somewhat pulled towards the MMR of the best player in the party. So, basically, if you are playing with Supersonic Legend players, you should probably make sure that your skills are all up-to-date!
MMR Tier Ratings In RL Season 10
MMR Ratings are based on a number that is calculated regarding the wins and losses you've had, and the players you've competed against. Following is a table of the numerical values of each Tier Rank in Rocket League...
Rank Name | 1v1 | 2v2 | 3v3 |
Supersonic Legend | 1341 | 1860 | 1871 |
Grand Champion 3 | 1286 | 1715 | 1713 |
Grand Champion 2 | 1223 | 1574 | 1575 |
Grand Champion 1 | 1175 | 1435 | 1435 |
Champion 3 | 1108 | 1315 | 1315 |
Champion 2 | 1055 | 1195 | 1195 |
Champion 1 | 995 | 1075 | 1075 |
Diamond 3 | 935 | 995 | 995 |
Diamond 2 | 875 | 915 | 915 |
Diamond 1 | 815 | 835 | 835 |
Platinum 3 | 755 | 774 | 775 |
Platinum 2 | 695 | 713 | 715 |
Platinum 1 | 635 | 654 | 655 |
Gold 3 | 575 | 594 | 595 |
Gold 2 | 515 | 535 | 535 |
Gold 1 | 455 | 475 | 475 |
Silver 3 | 395 | 410 | 415 |
Silver 2 | 335 | 352 | 355 |
Silver 1 | 275 | 288 | 295 |
Bronze 3 | 208 | 233 | 231 |
Bronze 2 | 148 | 178 | 172 |
Bronze 1 | -48 | -100 | 84 |
Unranked | - | - | - |
Just to quickly explain these numbers to you, you progress to each subsequent rank once you reach the number listed in the above table. So, for example, if you are a Bronze 3 in 2v2 matches, then you have an MMR rating of between 233 and 288. Thus, you likely don't have exactly the number listed, but you will be somewhere on the scale.
Casual MMR In Rocket League
If you've taken a closer look at your MMR in all Rocket League modes, you probably noticed that your Casual MMR is quite a bit higher than your ranked one. It's obvious that other numbers are used to distribute the skill rating between players, but it's nearly impossible to provide exact values for each casual rank.
However, we found an interesting Reddit Threat about this topic – it may be a couple of years old, but comparing it to our own Casual MMR, it seems to still be quite accurate. Here it is:

How To View Your MMR In Rocket League
There are many ways to view your MMR in Rocket League, but we will focus on the use of Alpha Console and Bakkesmod, as well as a selection of excellent websites that you can use to check out your ranking.
Alpha Console / Bakkesmod
Whilst Alpha Console shutdown in early 2020, the developers joined forces with the Bakkesmod crew and now offer a suite of features, including visual customization and a visualized MMR Ranking. This is a bit of a difficult one, as you will need to install the mod after you've downloaded it from their website. It's easy to do, but jumping onto a website to check your MMR is, admittedly, a lot easier.
What Websites Can I Use To Check Out My MMR?
Players should use one of a couple of different MMR Tracker websites that are available. There are two main MMR checking websites that you should use, but the main website we recommend is the standard Tracker, which is also available as an app. The other is RLTracker, and that's also quite good, if not a little spammy. We recommend using the first, to be honest.
