Tier Promotion (Bronze 1 → Silver 5)
Trade Redeploy progress for Skill RatingAt Bronze 1, once you hold 130T Credits, promote on the Rank board. You reset like a rank up and receive SR = √(Redeploy points earned this tier ÷ 2), so every Redeploy you did in Bronze counts. SR buys the permanent Skill Rating tree, and the promotion also pays a Hero Token.
Redeploy minimums (Credits needed before the button works): Bronze 5 4K · Bronze 4 8K · Bronze 3 15K · Bronze 2 25K · Bronze 1 40K · Silver 5 60K.
