<br>The matchmaking algorithm is the unsung hero that determines exactly who you will face every time you press the 'Battle' button.<br> |

Trophy and Rating Systems |
|
|
|
<br>Most modern strategy games utilize a modified version of the Elo rating system, originally designed for professional chess.<br> |

True Fairness |
