Matches with more than 2.00 UTR Rating difference are not included in the algorithm when the higher-rated player wins as expected. Why?
As the difference in UTR Rating increases, so does the likelihood the higher-rated player wins the match easily. Our data indicates matches with a UTR Rating difference of more than 2.00 are almost certain to be a blowout. Results like these are not indicative of either player’s skill level and are excluded by the algorithm.
