Points and rating

Learn what sport points mean and why they change after each match.

Points are our way to estimate how strong you are in a sport. After each match, your points update based on the result and the opponents you played. We use TrueSkill, a rating system originally developed for Xbox Live.

What affects point changes?

  • Winning against strong opponents increases your points more than winning against beginners.
  • The system starts uncertain about your level and adjusts quickly at first. Once it has seen enough of your matches, changes become smaller.
  • Consistent results matter - stable performance improves your long-term points.

Example: you are at 1,200 pts and beat a 1,500-pt player - you might gain around 40 pts. Beat a 900-pt player and it may only be 5 pts.

Per-sport points

Points are tracked separately for each sport. The leaderboard uses these sport ratings for sport rankings and combines played sports into a separate Overall score.
