Only Pete and those involved in the programming etc know for certain.

I have a basic knowledge of it though after reading other posts in the forum. Its calculated using the result score venue and the rankings of the two sides.

You get more points for beating a side with similar ratings than you would for hammering a bot

Actually, hammering a bot even subtracts points AFAIK. I always dropped down the rankings after playing bots.

It is not a subtraction of points. You get only less points for a win against a bot and so your average points go down.

Hammer any human team and you will get more points

Hammer any human poor teams bad to get more points

Hammer a human poor team will get you more points compare to a nice small margin win against an equal human opponent

Conclusio: the better a rank is on base same win, the weaker teams you played and beat badly

Sorry Admin i forgot to state, what is my fault, thank you for remembering:

My statement is valid for ranking as was calculated in Season 5

I did not observe it in Season 6 because i do not read anywhere that there is change

Same for season 7 so maybe by mid season i will put some figures on table to manifest my statement because, i hope i wrong, i think it is same calculation as in Season 5

there was no change that cant be found in the changelog


to all others: just be careful, sometimes it is a fact, sometimes it is just an users opinion...

one thing is right: the base is the team strength, and the game result.

wrong in that post: you dont need to win 100:0 ("hammer a team down") to receive the maximum possible ranking points

So why not provide us with some facts?
