# Game modes

## Ranked

```
/queue ranked
```

Ranked is our most popular game mode. Players queue in a role they desire and teams are matched automatically by <mark style="color:red;">InHouseQueue</mark> using the built-in MMR algorithm. Turning on Ranked mode will automatically enable MMR, however you may still disable MMR if you wish.

## Rosters

```
/queue rosters
```

Players join the Queue and self organise into teams. Players can use the <mark style="color:blue;">Switch Team</mark> button to move from Red and Blue side. This is for the most competitive servers with predefined Rosters.

[Duo queue](/docs/commands/queue-commands.md#crown-toggle-duo-queue) is not supported for this game mode for obvious reasons!

## Captain

```
/captain queue [condition]
```

Turn up the competitive drive and allow captains to pick their teams!

Captain Queue features four modes. They determine how captains are decided.

1. <mark style="color:green;">Highest MMR</mark> - The 2 Highest MMR players are picked as captains for the Red and Blue Team
2. <mark style="color:green;">Lowest MMR</mark> - The 2 Lowest MMR players are picked as captains for the Red and Blue Team
3. <mark style="color:green;">Random</mark> - Random Captains
4. <mark style="color:green;">Admin voted</mark> - Admins decide on captains every game.

Captain queue also features 5 sub-modes that determine which of the <mark style="color:green;">two</mark> captains picks <mark style="color:green;">first</mark>.

1. Higher MMR Player
2. Lower MMR Player
3. Red Team
4. Blue Team
5. Default - The captain who joined the queue first.

You can change which captain picks first by using [`/captain first_pick`](/docs/commands/queue-commands.md#captain-first-pick)

## Casual

```
/queue casual
```

No fuss, just fun! Queue up without predefined roles. Teams are <mark style="color:green;">balanced</mark> if you have MMR enabled, otherwise teams are completely <mark style="color:green;">randomized</mark>. Perfect for those late-night custom games that may (or may not) involve alcohol.
