A '''Rank''' (Japanese: ランク ''Ranku'') is a property exclusive to [[Xyz Monster]]s, in place of a [[Level]]. An Xyz Monster's Rank corresponds to the required [[Level]]s of its [[Xyz Material]]s.

A '''Rank''' (Japanese: ランク ''Ranku'') [[File:Rank Star.svg|18px|alt=]] is an indicator that is exclusive to [[Xyz Monster]]s, used in place of a [[Level]]. It is indicated by a number of stars, similar to a Level; however, they are aligned to the left side of the card, and are depicted by a yellow star on a black circle. The Rank of an Xyz Monster is almost always the same as the Level of its required [[Xyz Material]]s.
−
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. Monsters with a printed Rank of 0 use monsters without Levels as Material, and have a [[Rank condition]] that treats their original Rank as a different value.
 
  
−
In the ''[[OCG]]'' and ''[[TCG]]'', monsters' original Ranks can range from 1 to 13. A monster's printed Rank is the same as the Level of its required [[Xyz Material]]s, with a handful of exceptional cases where the Summoning requirement has been changed to require Xyz monsters.
+
An Xyz Monster's Rank is not its [[Level]]. Xyz Monsters do not have a Level. Therefore, they cannot be used for [[Synchro Summon|Synchro]], [[Ritual Summon|Ritual]], or [[Xyz Summon]]s (except for [[Xyz Evolution]]), 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.
  
−
==Mechanics==
+
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. If the only monster on the field is an Xyz Monster, those cards cannot be [[activate]]d.
−
<!--In the ''OCG'' and ''TCG'', monsters cannot have a Rank lower than 1, but [[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>
 
  
−
When [[Xyz Summon]]ing an [[Xyz Monster]], the player normally must use two or more monsters with the same Level, whose Levels are the same as the Rank of the Xyz Monster being Summoned.
+
The ATK averages for Ranks 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.
  
−
An Xyz Monster's Rank is not its Level—Xyz Monsters do not have a Level. Consequently, Xyz Monsters cannot normally be used as material for a [[Synchro Summon|Synchro]] or [[Xyz Summon]]s (unless specifically permitted, such as with the [[Pendulum Effect]] of "[[Xiangke Magician]]"); and any [[effect]]s that refer to the Level of a monster (such as "[[Gravity Bind]]" and most [[Ritual Spell Card]]s) cannot be applied to Xyz Monsters. Since Xyz Monsters do not have Levels, cards that modify Levels (such as "[[Harmonic Waves]]") do not affect the Rank of Xyz Monsters. However, some card effects refer to both Levels and Ranks together (such as "[[Al-Lumi'raj]]" and "[[Toon Mask]]").
+
Currently, Ranks in the ''[[OCG]]''/''[[TCG]]'' can range from 0 to 11. Rank 12 and 13 monsters have also been seen in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|anime]].

==Trivia==
 
−
* Due to the impracticality of Xyz Summoning them in the normal way, all Rank 11 and higher Xyz Monsters either have an alternate Summoning procedure ([[Xyz Evolution]]), or were designed to be Summoned via another card's effect (e.g. a "[[Rank-Up-Magic]]" card). However, a few do give a benefit for Summoning them with their printed materials, such as "[[Number 77: The Seven Sins]]".
