If you’re even remotely interested in competitive FPS play, you’ve probably heard of programs and games out there that help players become better shooters. They focus on training players to become more accurate and respond quickly when targets appear on the screen. They’ve been proven to work, and tons of pros swear by them.
Aim Lab is probably the most popular tool players use, and it comes with a ranking system that some players might find confusing. We’ve outlined everything you need to know about Aim Lab ranks and what you need to do to become a Grandmaster.
Aim Lab Ranks
There are a wide variety of ranks in Aim Lab, 9 in total, to be exact. Within each rank, there are 4 levels, with 1 being the best and 4 being the worst. This means that Grandmaster 1 is the best level you can be, while Bronze 4 is the absolute worst. To advance between levels, it’s only 10 points in total.
As you might have seen from the above image, your rank is the average score across your 3 individual ranks. If you want to improve your overall rank, you’re going to have to improve 1 of the 3 individual ranks Aim Lab takes into account. You’ll see more progress by increasing your lowest-scored rank, so focus on bringing those up first.
The 3 category ranks it average are Flicking, Tracking, and Switching. If you need help with a specific section, you can head on over to Aimlabs.com, where they have content from pros, top coaches, and members of the community. You can even share your own Aim Lab replay for bragging rights or if you’re looking for help.

You should try and keep in mind that Aim Lab is merely a trainer. Your rank in Aim Lab isn’t going to immediately make you the same rank in Valorant, CS: GO, or any other first-person shooter. While it’s always nice to see yourself climb the leaderboards, trying to game the ranking system so that you’re higher isn’t advised.
You’re better off learning how to react faster and improve your mouse movements than treating Aim Lab like its own competitive shooter. You can be the best shooter in Aim Lab, but if you don’t understand the maps and mechanics of your FPS, you’re not going to be any better than the players at the bottom of competitive play.
