Matchmaking Rating also known as “MMR” is a number calculated for each player to match them with players of similar skill. The intent behind MMR is to match players by skill. This is accomplished by comparing an assigned number MMR that adjusts based on the relative MMR of the opponents players win or lose to. Matching players by their effectiveness or performance helps make sure that less experienced players aren’t always playing against expert players, and that competitors at all levels are earning their victories by battling players of roughly equivalent ability.

Uncertainty represents how confident the system is in knowing that players belong at their current rank or rating. Boosting uncertainty allows for significant adjustments to be made to MMR during placement matches.
