    If the person in 2nd is receiving a bigger boost than the person who won the game then that means that the person who won has a much higher rating than the person who finished 2nd. If a person receives a big gain then that is reward for finishing much higher than their history suggests they should. In your game we could explain it by saying that you winning was more expected than the guy in 2nd coming 2nd.


    For those wanting a more specific answer; go and have a look at how the Elo rating system works. This is the system being used with a k value of 20. And it's adaption into a multiplayer game is that your rating is calculated against every opponent in a game (so an 8 player match would see you personally being involved in 7 different 1v1 battles when rating is calculated) and these values are all added together. I'll write something more specific on the wiki when I get a chance.


    Big thx!!
