  A 63 average will get you there.

  Beware the words!

  Levels aren't tiers - the former release equipment in the shop progressively as you earn experience points (XPs) from playing. There's no direct relation between the two terms.

  Your question is about tiers, which are mainly controlled by the average.

  A Master needs 40 ranked rounds in his tier with an average of 63.00 to advance to Tour Master.

  Your average is "saturated" with more than the required number, so it's but the average to observe.

  Hit it straight!

  Here ya go:

   

  • When your average score is equal or smaller than 100 you go from hack to amateur.
  • When it is equal or smaller than 80 you go from amateur to pro.
  • When it is equal or smaller than 72 you go from pro to tour pro
  • When it is equal or smaller than 67 you go from tour pro to Master
  • When it is equal or smaller than 63 you go from Master to Tour master
  • When it is equal or smaller than 61 you go from Tour master to legend 

  and

   

  • you need to play at least 5 ranked rounds as hack before reaching Amateur
  • you need to play at least 10 ranked rounds as amateur before reaching Pro
  • you need to play at least 20 ranked rounds as Pro before reaching Tour pro
  • you need to play at least 25 ranked rounds as Tour pro before reaching Master
  • you need to play at least 40 ranked rounds as Master before reaching Tour Master
  • you need to play at least 50 ranked rounds as Tour Master before reaching Legend

  Notice that those minimal number of ranked rounds are also the number of best rounds used to compute your average in that particular tier. So if you are Tour Master for example, your average is computed with your best 50 ranked round (that's why you need at least 50 rounds to move up).

   A couple things you should all know.  One is that your average starts over after you reach a new tier.  Your first round at the new tier will be your new average.  Second, the rounds you need to complete as listed above are the number of rounds that you need in that tier.  Not total overall.  For example, you have to have 25 rounds and an average under 67 in the Pro Tour tier to advance to master.  Hope this helps answer any questions any of you may have.

  Once you have played the minimum number of rounds require to tier up, your scoring average is then said to be 'saturated'.

  Once saturated you scoring average can stay the same or go down, but it can no longer go up.

  Don't worry!

  You need only one 36/72 score or two 73s to become promoted!

  And, the game is not about struggling for the average but about fun and recreation, making and meeting friends and use this to hone your skills.
