I have a billboard GUI with a text label placed in server storage I also have a leaderstat named "Wins" I also have a script in serverscriptservice shown below:

01`local TitleGUI = game:GetService("ServerStorage"):WaitForChild("Title")
02game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
03    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
04        local titleguiclone = TitleGUI:Clone()
05        local Wins = player.leaderstats.Wins
06        if Wins.Value >= 0 then
07            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
08            wait(2)
09            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Noob"
10        elseif Wins.Value >= 5 then
11            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
12            wait(2)
13            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Beginner"
14        elseif Wins.Value >= 10 then
15            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
16            wait(2)
17            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Decent"
18        elseif Wins.Value >= 15 then
19            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
20            wait(2)
21            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Very Decent"
22        elseif Wins.Value >= 30 then
23            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
24            wait(2)
25            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Above Average"
26        elseif Wins.Value >= 45 then
27            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
28            wait(2)
29            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Gamer"
30        elseif Wins.Value >= 60 then
31            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
32            wait(2)
33            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Pro"
34        elseif Wins.Value >= 75 then
35            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
36            wait(2)
37            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Amazing"
38        elseif Wins.Value >= 100 then
39            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
40            wait(2)
41            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Awesome"
42        elseif Wins.Value >= 115 then
43            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
44            wait(2)
45            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Ultra"
46        elseif Wins.Value >= 150 then
47            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
48            wait(2)
49            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Chad"
50        elseif Wins.Value >= 200 then
51            titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name)
52            wait(2)
53            titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "The One"
54        end
55    end)

When I test out the game, it shows the overhead gui but the title always stays as "Noob" even though I have more than 5 wins. I've tried many things but nothing seems to work. Can someone please help?

So the only one that would work would be 0, because there is no limiting. lets say i want to show a shade on someone's screen depending if their health is low enough, like in between 50 and 40 then it would get darker if it went to 40 to 30. I would have to write something like this:

01local humanoid = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character.Humanoid
02 
03humanoid.HealthChanged:Connect(function(health) 
04    if humanoid.Health  <= 100 and 61 then -- this checks if the health is either 100 or higher then 61
05        script.Parent.ImageTransparency = 1
06    elseif humanoid.Health < 60 and  50 then -- the and in this checks if its higher then 50 but lower then 60.
07        script.Parent.ImageTransparency = 0.9
08    elseif humanoid.Health < 50 and 40 then
09        script.Parent.ImageTransparency = 0.8
10    elseif humanoid.Health < 40 and 30 then        -- Remember, this is a example.
11        script.Parent.ImageTransparency = 0.6
12    elseif humanoid.Health < 30 and 20 then
13        script.Parent.ImageTransparency = 0.4
14    elseif humanoid.Health < 20 and 5 then
15        script.Parent.ImageTransparency = 0.3
16    end
17end)

the and inside the code is like the thing that limits it.

This code below should work the way you want it.

01local TitleGUI = game:GetService("ServerStorage"):WaitForChild("Title")
0202  game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
0303      player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
0404          local titleguiclone = TitleGUI:Clone()
0505          local Wins = player.leaderstats.Wins
0606          if Wins.Value <= 4 and 0 then -- makes it only put the tag on there 
0707              titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
0808              wait(2)
0909              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Noob"
1010          elseif Wins.Value <= 9 and 5 then
1111              titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
1212              wait(2)
1313              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Beginner"
1414          elseif Wins.Value <= 14 and 10 then
1515              titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
1616              wait(2)
1717              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Decent"
1818          elseif Wins.Value <= 29 and 15 then
1919              titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
2020              wait(2)
2121              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Very Decent"
2222          elseif Wins.Value <= 44 and 30 then

2424              wait(2)
2525              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Above Average"
2626          elseif Wins.Value <= 59 and 45 then
2727              titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
2828              wait(2)
2929              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Gamer"
3030          elseif Wins.Value <= 74 and 60 then
3131              titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
3232              wait(2)
3333              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Pro"
3434          elseif Wins.Value <= 99 and 75 then
3535              titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
3636              wait(2)
3737              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Amazing"
3838          elseif Wins.Value <= 114 and 100 then
3939              titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
4040              wait(2)
4141              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Awesome"
4242          elseif Wins.Value <= 149 and 115 then
4343              titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
4444              wait(2)
4545              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Ultra"
4646          elseif Wins.Value <= 199 and 150 then
4747              titleguiclone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
4848              wait(2)
4949              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "Chad"

5252              wait(2)
5353              titleguiclone.TextLabel.Text = "The One"

I hope this resolved your problem. Have a good day! - Zeta

Thanks for the well written response Zeta, I actually appreciate it but unfortunatley I tried your method and it does the same the my code does. It just doesn't change the text to anything other than "Noob" Traadess 67 — 3y

Did you change your win value? It should work. Zeta_Dev 34 — 3y

Yea, I have eleven wins and the title I should have is "Decent" but it still says noob Traadess 67 — 3y

Wait nevermind, I tried it on an alt and it worked properly, I think it just doesn't work in studio. Anyways, tysm! Traadess 67 — 3y

No problem! Have a good night. Zeta_Dev 34 — 3y
