# Rank Unlock System The Unlocked Rank determines which Starlights a player is allowed to activate. A Starlight cannot become active if its Rank is higher than the current unlocked rank. ## 🔓 Starting Rank * At the beginning of the game, all players start with Rank 1 unlocked (R1). * Only Starlights with Rank 1 or lower may be activated at this stage. ## 🥇 Rank Unlock by Defeating * Each time that an Starlight is defeated, the unlocked rank increases by 1. * This allows you to send higher-ranked Starlights to the active zone as the game progresses. ## ⏳ Rank Unlock by Time * After the first player completes 3 turns, the next rank is unlocked during the turn change. * Then, after the third end-of-turn of the current active player, the next rank is unlocked again during the following turn change * The unlock timer resets each time the unlocked rank increases. ## 🚫 Max Rank "3" * The maximum unlocked rank is 3. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
