World of Tanks eSports Ranking System

Unker, on Nov 07 2012 - 21:20, said: Its the points on the line that change.... in the example of a skirmish, the weak team beat the good team.  Team A gains 7 points, and team B loses 7 point.  If team B wins, they would gain 3 points and team A would lose 3 points.  The better team will get 3 points if they win, but will lose 7 points by losing.  If they were the same rank, the winner would get 5 points and the loser would lose 5 points.
This is the same as in chess.  The gain/loss is the same for each team, but how much it is can be affected by how different the rankings are.
