Assuming your table is in A1:H6 and cell B10 = "Low" (you can hardcode "Low"
into the formula if you want), and
B2:B5 - Ranks
D2:H5 - Individual indicators for the colors.
=SUM(--(FREQUENCY(IF(($B$2:$B$5=B10)*($D$2:$H$5<>""),COLUMN($D$2:$H$5),""),
IF(($B$2:$B$5=B10)*($D$2:$H$5<>""),COLUMN($D$2:$H$5),""))>0))
array entered with Cntrl+Shift+Enter (or you'll get #VALUE!). There may be
a simpler way, but it's getting late for me.

Works great! Thanks for your help. I've ended up adding a few more
booleans and it continues to function just fine.
great solution!
