Ranked Cups are a weekly competitive feature where you compete against other players for the highest score on a specific set of three tracks. Your performance in these cups determines your Tier, which influences your weekly rewards. To excel in Ranked Cups, you need to maximize your score on each of the three tracks. This means having high-level, 'Favored' Drivers, Karts, and Gliders for those specific courses. Focus on achieving perfect runs with long combos, multiple Frenzies, and high coin counts. Don't be afraid to restart races if you have a bad start or don't get good item luck. Investing in D/K/G that cover current and upcoming ranked tracks is a key strategy. The higher your Tier, the better the rewards, including Rubies, Coins, and upgrade tickets.
