A league (more precisely called weekly leaderboard or simply Leaderboards)[1] is a ranked XP competition initially available for Android and iOS users,[1] but was added for desktop users in May of 2019.
At least 10 lessons must already be completed (in any number of trees) before being eligible. Any test or story that gives 1 XP or more counts as one lesson.
The player must complete one lesson to join the leaderboard.
Players must be at least 13 years old.
Mechanism
The contest of Leaderboards runs as follows:
One league consists of one of the 10 possible gem ranks, ranked from lowest to highest: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Sapphire, Ruby, Emerald, Amethyst, Pearl, Obsidian and Diamond.
Competitions refresh on Mondays every week at midnight GMT.
Each user is assigned to a league that consists of 30 random participants of a common rank who earned their first XP of the week at a similar time. There is always one open league per rank, that doesn't have 30 participants yet, where people can join. When a user that is not yet in a league earns XP, it is joined in the open league for its rank. Once a league has 30 participants, it is closed and a new empty league is the new open league.
Any valid method of XP-earning counts toward the overall amount of XP earned for the ongoing competition.
Users at the top of the leaderboard by the end of each week advances to the next league. Currently it is as follows:
Bronze: Top 15
Silver: Top 15
Gold: Top 10
Sapphire: Top 10
Ruby: Top 10
Emerald: Top 10
Amethyst: Top 10
Pearl: Top 10
Obsidian: Top 5
Diamond: N/A
Additionally, those in the lowest ranks at the end of the week will be demoted one rank below.
Also, players who earn either 1st, 2nd or 3rd position in their groups will also earn lingots, denoted in the league area by a gold, silver, or bronze chest by their name, by an amount which increases as they progress through the leagues, as shown in the following table.
iOS gems may be awarded in place of lingots, at a rate of 100 gems per 5 lingots elsewhere.
Players who are below 23rd (24 to 30) position will be demoted one rank lower. In the Bronze competition, there is no demotion as there is no lower rank.
Otherwise, players will remain in the same rank.
Players in a League together can use Reactions to show their current mood or the language they are currently learning. These can be changed at any time.
Group Goal
As of July 2019, for certain users, for each competition, each group of common league ranks is given a group goal to work together in reaching certain group ratings (rankings) of XP.[2][3]

Breaking Ties
When two or more participants accumulate the same amount of XP in the same competition, their rankings are ordered by completion time from earliest to latest.
Vocabulary
Leaderboards on the web
There are three concepts that can be called league or leaderboard.
The official name of the contest is Leaderboards (or simply leagues)[4]
Each of the updated ranks in which the game is divided is called a league.
Each group of 50 people who compete together is called a league or a leaderboard.
Additional Notes
Some users report earning additional lingots on the Android version of the app, with some reporting earning 15 lingots for getting 3rd place in a league and others reporting receiving 30 lingots instead of 20 for getting first place.
Bots have been spotted and reported in Leagues in the past so be wary and report any suspicious behavior to the Duolingo Team directly through Getting help. Do not report cheating or breaches of the rules to the Duolingo Wiki or its admins.
