01 / Preview

v0.1 · Public preview

EchelonHQ is in active development. The site is live to preview while the Discord bot and Riot Sign-On are finished.

EchelonHQ is in active development, and this is the first public preview of the site. You can browse the profile and leaderboard now. The competitive side runs through a Discord bot and Riot Sign-On that are still being wired up, so a few pages point you to Discord for the parts that are not live yet. Things may change or break while we build.

Live now

  • Site: home, about, rules, FAQ, contact, status, and legal pages.
  • Profile: your stats, recent form, MMR trend, match history, and map breakdown (once your account is linked).
  • Leaderboard: season standings with a format switch from 1v1 through 5v5.
  • Discord sign-in: Discord is the single sign-in path for EchelonHQ.

In progress

  • Riot Sign-On: link your VALORANT account to reveal your rank and seed your starting Skirmish rating. Until it is linked, your rank stays hidden.
  • Discord bot v1: /queue, /party, /accept, and match rooms. When it ships, the How to play page fills in with the real walkthrough.

Planned

  • Live queue presence: see who is searching right now, surfaced on the home page.
  • Custom rank ladder: server-defined ranks and colors that show across profiles and the leaderboard.
  • Season tooling: full season history and per-format standings.
