The Spy on being the best duelist

The Platinum Dueling Badge is a level 4 Miscellaneous badge released as part of the Mann-Conomy Update. It appears as a platinum, rectangular badge which is displayed on the chest. The medal is awarded after a player has reached level 75 with the Gold Dueling Badge.

The badge also displays win percentage based on all duels played, and the time, date, outcome, and opponent in your last duel.

If the badge is deleted, a new one will be awarded upon completing another duel. This new badge will have the same stats as the old one, but a new "date received".
