Personally, I don’t like the fact that every team-based video game uses ELO, a system designed for a 1 on 1 game, to determine an individual’s skill.

While Elo (and side note: it’s a person’s name, not an acronym) isn’t perfect and systems like Glicko-2 are better even for 1v1s, is there a better system than Elo that could be used to rate players in team games? Especially if there’s a mix of pre-made teams and random teams thrown together by matchmaking?

I suspect games tinker with the formula behind the scenes, to accurately place people faster if nothing else. The more players the longer it could take for the skill of any one to show up in the numbers, so I bet they factor in other game specific metrics at least at first. There would be some risk of this being abused, but that’s less if they keep it a secret and maybe the progress numbers shown to players aren’t quite the same as the real numbers used to decide who to match them against.

Like when they discriminated against users because of their age…

I thought it was common knowledge that the pickier you are on Tinder, the better your matches will be. Swipe right on everyone and you won’t have much luck on that app.

It’s no longer determined by your swiping behavior, but rather who swipes left or right on your profile, and their elo.

It’s not often I actually laugh when reading a comment. This was one of those times
