Is it advisable to use DDNS over just normal DNS setting and we manage the IP change if it updates? What is the most recommened route for that so we can maintain our server ranking?

I'm not clear on what you mean when you say; "we manage the IP change if it updates"?
Game server IPs can not be manually updated on Gametracker. (I assume you are aware of this as you ask the question?) I am a community user. I do not reply to private message requests for support. Hint: I do not accept (or reply to) personal requests for re-ranking or unbanning. You must use the forums please. Links: Forum Guidelines | Reporting abuse | Guides & FAQs | General Help |

It doesn't matter if you use a dynamic DNS client or not. The DNS feature only requires that the DNS resolve to an IP address. The DNS feature is the only way to maintain ranking if your IP changes.

Well, if you use a Dynamic DNS client, chances are it would automatically update the DNS IP when it changes. If you do not have software automatically checking that, of course, it is a manual effort to update the IP.
