A '''Rank''' (Japanese: ランク ''Ranku'') is a property exclusive to [[Xyz Monster]]s, in place of a [[Level]].
 
 
 
The [[original Rank]] of an Xyz Monster Card is generally represented by a number of stars [[File:Rank Star.svg|18px|alt=a yellow star on a black circle]] printed in the top-left. The Rank stars being left-aligned contrasts to the right-alignment of Level stars.
 
 
 
In the ''[[OCG]]'' and ''[[TCG]]'', monsters' printed Ranks can range from 0 to 12 (though all monsters with a printed Rank of 0 have a [[Rank condition]] stating that their original Rank is to be treated as a different value). In the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]]'' anime, Xyz Monsters with an original Rank of 13 have also been seen. With the sole exception of "[[Number 93: Utopia Kaiser]]", a monster's printed Rank is the same as the Level of its required [[Xyz Material]]s (including Rank 0 monsters, whose required Xyz Materials are themselves Xyz Monsters that have no Level).
 
 
 
<!--In the ''[[OCG]]'' and ''[[TCG]]'', monsters cannot have a Rank lower than 1, but [[card effect]]s can freely raise a monster's Rank to arbitrarily large values in excess of 12. (commented out because there are no specific rulings on this, but it would be consistent with the rulings for Levels)
 
-->
 
A monster can only have a single Rank at a time.<ref>{{cite book |author=Konami |title=Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game - Perfect Rulebook 2015 |url=https://ygorganization.com/perfectrulebook/ |page=48}}</ref>
 
 
 
An Xyz Monster's Rank is not its [[Level]]; Xyz Monsters do not have a Level. Consequently, Xyz Monsters cannot be used for [[Synchro Summon|Synchro]], [[Ritual Summon|Ritual]], or [[Xyz Summon]]s (unless specifically permitted); and any effects that would refer to the Level of a monster, such as those of "[[Gravity Bind]]", "[[Level Limit - Area B]]" and "[[Burden of the Mighty]]", cannot be applied to an Xyz Monster. Since Xyz Monsters do not have Levels, cards such as "[[Star Changer]]", "[[Scanner]]" and "[[Give and Take]]" cannot be used on them at all. Cards that modify Levels such as "[[Harmonic Waves]]", "[[Feedback Warrior]]", "[[Synchro Boost]]" and "[[Demotion]]" also cannot be used on Xyz Monsters.
 
 
 
The average ATK for monsters of each Rank are a fair bit higher than for their respective Levels (for example, barring [[negative effects]], 2-Material Rank 3 monsters can reach 2100 ATK and 2-Material Rank 4 monsters can reach 2600 ATK, compared to 1750 ATK for a Level 3 monster and 2000 ATK for a Level 4 monster). Just as with any other category of monsters, Xyz Monsters with more powerful effects may have lower ATK and DEF than other monsters of the same Rank, while Xyz Monsters with negative effects or more difficult Summoning conditions may have higher ATK and DEF.
