Introduction to Discord Badges

Based on the difficulty of obtaining each badge, Discord has classified the current 11 badges into four levels: Common, Rare, Legendary, and Mythic.

The following is a description of each badge according to the above classification.


Common Badges

New Profile Badge

Users who have successfully changed their old username to the new username will have a new badge in their profile. This badge displays the “old username” you have used in the past.

If you hover over this badge, you will see the message “Originally known as _______” revealing the previous username used by this user before changing to the new username.

Hypesquad House badge

This is a program similar to Discord community ambassadors launched by Discord. Everyone is divided into three different camps. As long as you answer 5 questions, you can be assigned to one of the camps based on your choice.

If you are interested in getting this badge, simply open “User Settings”, move the left menu to the bottom, choose “HypeSquad”, then click “Join HypeSquad” on the right, and complete 5 multiple-choice questions similar to psychological tests to be assigned to one of the camps.
