5 Whether this can be brought about is unclear, and depends on where the win chance thresholds are set. The recent games and feedback indicated that the numbers were too high so I reduced them. It is hard to prejudge this so I'm planning to iterate for a bit. There are also a few different ratings reported by infra that could be introducing noise ( @DeinFreund may be looking into it) . 5 Whether this can be brought about is unclear, and depends on where the win chance thresholds are set.
