What the rating is made of

The two parts
The head-to-head correction is 6.6% of the total.
The four factors
- 0.800 is the highest average of any roster Valve loaded and 0.000 the lowest, both printed in Valve's file. If the top pulls away, everyone below falls without playing worse.
- Valve ranked 380 rosters in this release: every lineup with a win and at least five matches in the six-month window.
- Head to head is added last: a Glicko adjustment, match by match in date order.
- Valve's file prints 499.9; the factors here are rounded to three decimals.
madlikewizards: Below the median of the 11 chasing the slots on all four factors.
