Who is the best Nitro Type player in the world

For a list of leaderboards created by players to make up for the loss of most of the leaderboard categories on Nitro Type, see Player-created leaderboards.

The leaderboards (formerly called "Rankings" and "Scoreboard") are a feature of Nitro Type that can be used to view the Top 100 teams of the last 7 days. There have been 9 different leaderboard categories throughout Nitro Type’s history, but most of them were removed for various reasons, and only one remains.

This same leaderboard is also planned to be released for Nitro Math. Going to the page on the test site will result in seeing a Coming Soon notice.

Current sections

Top Teams

The "Top Teams" section of the leaderboards is a section that is used to view the top 100 teams with the most points earned in the past 7 days. Before January 10, 2021, it was possible to sort teams by "Season" and "Last 24 Hours". Before February 14, 2020, it was also possible to sort by "Last 30 Days". Starting January 16, 2021, badges were released for the top 3, top 10, and top 50 teams. All members of the top 50 teams also receive the corresponding badge on their profiles. All ranking is based on speed and activity, rather than the ongoing belief of level quantity.

Defunct sections

Top Racers

The "Top Racers" section of the leaderboards was a section that could be used to view the top 100 racers with the most points. They could be sorted by Season and Last 24 Hours. Prior to the release of Nitro Type v3, the top 3 racers on the 7 day leaderboard would be displayed on Nitro Type's home page. Before February 14, 2020, they could also be sorted by Last 30 Days and Last 7 Days. This, along with all other leaderboard sections, was announced to be removed on December 3, 2020, and it was eventually removed on January 10, 2021. However, badges are currently rewarded to racers that are Top 3, Top 10, Top 50, Top 100, and Top 300.

Hall of Fame

The Hall of Fame was one of the sections of the leaderboards that was added at the release of seasons to make up for the loss of the All-Time Scoreboards. The categories in the Hall of Fame included Most Active, Fastest Racer with 500+ Races, Longest Session, Most Money, Biggest Spender, and Oldest Active Player. This, along with all other leaderboard sections, was announced to be removed on December 3, 2020, and it was eventually removed on January 10, 2021.

Most Active Racers

The "Most Active Racers" section of the leaderboards was a section that was used to view the 100 racers with the highest amount of races done in the past 24 hours, 7, and 30 days, and all time. This category was removed and replaced with the "Top Racers" section (which showed the people with the most points instead of races) on September 22, 2016. The "all time" grouping was removed on every board along with this change.

Fastest Racers

The "Fastest Racers" section of the leaderboards was a section that was used to view the 100 racers with the highest average 24 hour, 7 day, 30 day, and all time speeds. This section was removed twice. The first time was on September 22, 2016, when seasons were first released. It was added back due to complaints. However, the "All Time" and "24 hour" columns were removed, and the "7 Day" and "30 Day" columns were the only ones that could be seen. However, there was a notable glitch where one could access the Fastest Racers in the last 24 hours by simply going to the "Top Racers" section, clicking "24 hours", and then clicking the "Fastest Racers" tab. This allowed one to see the fastest racers in the last 24 hours even after that was "removed". However, on March 7, 2018, the entire speed board was removed again due to botters. Travis once stated that the speed leaderboard would be gone until "people grow up and stop using bots". In early 2019, it was discovered that the Fastest Racers leaderboard could still be accessed using inspect element despite it being removed. However, this was patched with the release of Nitro Type v3.

Most Active Teams

Like the "Most Active Racers" section, the "Most Active Teams" section of the leaderboards was a section that was used to view the 100 teams with the highest amount of races done in the past 24 hours, 7, and 30 days, and all time. This category was removed and replaced with the "Top Teams" section (which showed the teams with the most points instead of races) on September 22, 2016. The "all-time" grouping on every board was removed along with this change.

Fastest Teams

The "Fastest Teams" section of the leaderboards was a section that was used to view the 100 teams with the highest average 24 hour, 7 day, 30 day, and all time speeds. With the release of seasons on September 22, 2016, this section was removed and was a huge upset to "speed teams" (e.g., DOTA).

Biggest Winners

The "Biggest Winners" section of the leaderboards was a section that was used to view the 100 racers with the highest amount of wins in the last 60 minutes, 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, and all time. This board was removed in October 2012 due to it being nearly identical to the "Most Active Racers" scoreboard.

Site Stats

The "Site Stats" section of the leaderboards was a section that was used to view stats of the site, like the total number of nitros bought or races completed. It was removed with the release of Nitro Type 2.0 for unknown reasons.
