The ranking table
The gap selects the row, and the result decides the column: a win by the higher-ranked player is worth little, an upset a lot.
| Ranking gap | Higher ranked wins | Lower ranked wins |
|---|---|---|
| 0–25 | 10 | 10 |
| 26–50 | 9 | 11 |
| 51–75 | 8 | 12 |
| 76–100 | 7 | 13 |
| 101–125 | 6 | 15 |
| 126–150 | 6 | 16 |
| 151–200 | 5 | 17 |
| 201–250 | 4 | 18 |
| 251–300 | 3 | 19 |
| 301–400 | 2 | 20 |
| 401–500 | 2 | 30 |
| 501+ | 2 | 40 |
Championships, cap and protection
- At individual championships (SM, RM and DM) the winner’s points are multiplied by 1.5 and rounded down. Only the winner is weighted; the loser loses the table value.
- One ranking calculation changes a rating by at most 250 points.
- A player on 300 or fewer who would lose points over a period keeps their ranking.
| Your ranking | Matches | Championship | Change | New |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1500 | won vs 1500 | — | +10 | 1510 |
| 1200 | won vs 1500 | — | +19 | 1219 |
| 1200 | won vs 1500 | yes, ×1.5 | +28 | 1228 |
| 280 | lost vs 600 | — | 0 | 280 |
What the table does not cover
- Walkovers, which count at most 10.
- Matches against foreign players without a Swedish licence, which always count 5.
