Why does the amount of points earned in Rankeds vary so much

Postby 1TheBus1 » Tue May 31, 2022 11:32 am

I've won a Ranked and got 21 points, then lost one and lost 3 points, then won another and got 12 points, then lost 2 in a row (lost about 6 points), and finally won another and got 6 points. Why am I getting less and less points?

There are multiple varaibles that influence the amount of points you gain.
Such as; Alignment.. Skill level (So if you're low elo and play with higher elo players you gain more points and vice versa of whether you're high elo and play with low elo players which causes you to gain less)
There's also overall performance.
How the roles were randomized (like a mayor in the game is likely to give a little bit less Elo correct me if I'm wrong)
How many users on your team or the other team leaves.

All in all it's just a lot of variables that calculates Elo.

Although there's a guaranteed base win of at least 3 elo.

To give the actual answer:

Elo is calculated with the average win rate for your role, combined with the average elo of your faction and the average elo of your opposing faction. (i.e. avg. Maf elo if town, or avg town elo if maf).

Amount of people, leavers, or anything else has no bearing on elo whatsoever.
