Beta Release - Elo Rankings System
The Elo rating system measures relative skill levels based on competition outcomes. Higher ratings indicate stronger competitive performance. Learn more about Elo ratings. Note: Rankings are currently in beta and may fluctuate significantly as we process historical data.
- All competitors start at 1500 points
- K-factor varies based on match count (higher for newer competitors)
- Ratings updated after each match chronologically
- Ratings marked with * indicate provisional status (fewer than 5 matches)
Rankings are currently highly volatile as we continue to add and process historical match data. Individual ratings may fluctuate significantly as our match database becomes more comprehensive and additional competition results are incorporated.
- No weight class differentiation (including open weight)
- No belt rank considerations
- No tournament importance weighting
- Draws are currently skipped
- No time decay for inactive competitors
We plan to introduce weight classes, rule sets, and belt rank differentiation as more data becomes available. Rankings are subject to significant changes during this beta period as we refine the system and add historical match data.
