What does “ranked” mean? Doesn’t basically everyone have a rank?
search says she is immortal ranked, which is a very good rank, but it’s immortal in valorant, not league

Isn’t that Pokimane? She’s ranked in League. Cute women can do great things. If you sexualize it maybe you’re a creep. Go watch her play.

Ranked, meaning above a certain rank making you one of the top tier players.
You can be ranked as a bronze sure. But no one goes around saying I’m ranked bronze. Means you’re trash.
According to Google she’s Emerald+ (I have no idea what this means as I never played LoL. She apparently reached immortal status which makes her the top 0.5% of players.

Emerald+ is somewhere around the 93rd percentile. So she’s definitely good, (better than over 90% of players), but not as good as the true Diamond/master/grandmaster players.
A lot of those grandmaster-level players don’t even have their face on stream; They’ll just silently stream with a camera on their keyboard, because the people watching them want to see their inputs just as much as they want to see the the match. When it comes to streaming, there’s a golden triangle of “Looks”, “Charisma” and “Skill”. In order to be a good streamer, you need at least two. But those grandmaster players are so insanely skilled that they’re able to ignore the other two completely.

I feel like the mechanics of the isekai world have just been narrated and I’m about to binge 4hrs of B-tier slop.

Not really, you can play league entirely unranked though the matchmaking will still try to put you in similar skill matches. So you will get an ELO/MMR but that’s not a rank anyone sees.

I loved watching her play Among Us because she was so damn good at it.

And non-cute women can do great things. Watch people play who entertain you, and if they’re attractive, that’s cool too.
