How this rating change was computed

Glicko-2 doesn’t reward record — it rewards surprise. Winning a match the system expected you to win is worth almost nothing. Losing one is expensive. Losing to someone rated below you costs the most. The Planetary tier multiplier (1.0×) amplifies every gain and every loss.

Making cut at this Planetary event adds a flat +15 top-cut bonus on top of phase math. Making cut never costs you net rating — the made-cut floor pins the tournament delta to ≥ 0.

R2 EW_Ditto Win 2-1 1.0× +48.5 Swiss

R3 Tillmann Loss 1-2 1.0× Swiss

Glicko-2 predicted 56% odds in your favor. Unexpected losses carry the most rating signal — the system learns more from one upset than from many predictable wins.

R4 DEschain Loss 0-2 1.0× Swiss

Glicko-2 predicted 59% odds in your favor. Unexpected losses carry the most rating signal — the system learns more from one upset than from many predictable wins. Their rating wasn't well-established (RD 129, true skill could span ±257).

R5 FatherComstock_TDM Win 2-0 1.0× +75.8 Swiss

Glicko-2 predicted only 25% odds for you. Upset wins move the rating model strongly because the system learns a lot from results it didn't expect.

R6 TCT_Adrian Loss 0-2 1.0× Swiss
