Glicko2 matchmaking. We don't need this too.

4. This is anecdotal evidence, but I have seen complaints from both top and low level players saying that they dislike the current system.

Here are my predictions for Week 1.
Based on the record of the 2024 reg. season and the Glicko2 rating from last season.
The K-value determines how close the teams are likely to be to each other. The lower this value is, the more likely we are to see a very close match. (0 = 50%)
Do you agree? #ELF

Now that it's been requested, I'll share it with you too - the ELF all time ELO (I use the Glicko2 variant) as of week 7 2025 #europeanleagueoffootball #elo #glicko2

this is using a glicko2 rating algorithm, so the 'RD' column is a measure of uncertainty - the higher the number, the more uncertain the rating is.

Working on leaderboard system using Glicko2. Realized if a match in a tournament, or an entire event, gets invalidated in the future for some reason, I have to know the state of all players' ranks before and after the event (Glicko2 processes ranks in batches for accuracy)

Basically, I need to

Created SPER - a way of rating team's Set Piece Goals + xG as part of total numbers. Glicko2 ratings are fun. Article later this week.

Fixed my site the ranks melee players in the UK using glicko2, so thats working again finally meleeranked.uk

First version of my Tekken 8 offline rating system is built! It can be found at the link below - just put in your user slug (from your start.gg profile) and click submit, and your glicko2 rating and deviation will pop up. I've scraped most of the past year's tournaments (only in the US for now...)

It would be great to have a studio's perspective on the merits of different matchmaking systems. I don't understand why every game doesn't implement glicko2 or something like it at least at the high end like SF6 did. It would be great to hear your insights on this in a future Tekken Talk perhaps 🙏

From June to August of this summer, Hop On will be live ranking players who compete in our Rivals Brackets in a Glicko based Braacket league at braacket.com/league/HopOn...

Also worth noting - I calculate based on set wins, not match wins, so if you go 3/2 vs 3/1 vs 3/0, the glicko2 differential is the same.

I have created a page with all #ELF seasons showing the ELO (or more precisely, the enhanced ELO system Glicko2) rating for the teams.

Puzzles can be rated just like humans. Lichess uses Glicko2, but probably more people know about ELO.

Players and puzzles are assigned an initial rating and the ratings are adjusted depending on if the players solve the correctly.

This puzzle has a rating of 2240 (quite high, the mean is ~1500).

Added some global statistics based on the Tekken 8 tournament glicko2 ratings I've calculated to TekkenRatings since I can't do any lab measurements while I wait for a SSA to arrive...

Decided I'm going to try and jump back into my love for coding and work on a glicko2 rating system for start.gg Tekken tournaments! My plan is to help tournament goers be able to compare their results on a more quantitative basis, as event-to-event skill won't always be equal.
