How the rating works

Every player gets one number out of 99, updated daily from real games. It compares him with others at the same position across six areas, shown as the bars on the card. The current season counts most, steadied by last season so a hot or cold week does not swing it. An average regular sits near 77, and nobody reaches 99. The rating is a public statistic. It is not a prediction and is not a pick.
