All recorded component contributions are unchanged.
All component changes total 0.00 points before clamping and rounding.
Clamping adjustment 0.00 and integer-rounding adjustment 0.00 reconcile this to 0 MPS points.

How MPS works ↗Recent points per match
- Actual
- 1.31
- Expected
- 1.52
Weighted · 8 eligible matches.
Performance context, not the MPS formula.
- Recent 8 matches: weighted result pressure 49.61; R contributes 29.6 points.
- Continuous tenure: 22 available matches across 2 seasons; older results halve in weight every 38 eligible matches. S contributes 7.2 points.
- Win/draw/loss supplies 80% of each match pressure; pre-match expected points supplies 20%. Both weighted means use the fixed tanh curve, then the shared 22/(22+1) sample adjustment.
- C is fixed from 1.0 verified club-seasons, contributing 5.3 points. Baseline established 2026-09-06.
- Coverage describes available league records; absent seasons are not treated as zero results. Current-season counts reflect known completed results.
- Context only: 0 consecutive losses; 3 without a win. No extra points are added.
| Points per match | Actual | Expected |
|---|---|---|
| Recent · 8 matches Weighted · R | 1.31 | 1.52 |
| Tenure · 22 matches Weighted · S | 1.95 | 1.47 |
Wins, draws and losses supply 80% of each match score; pre-match expected points supply 20%. These points-per-match figures give context, rather than the score formula. R and S share the same pre-match Elo. Recent matches carry more weight; tenure weight halves every 38 eligible matches.
