3 Don't new players start with 1250? And my understanding is that somewhere around 1500 is where you go if you play big team games and win 50/50; thats a reasonable assumption for most players that dont drastically alter the balance of power in 10v10 games. tldr; ELO means little and less in big team games than in small games, and less there than in 1v1. 3 Don't new players start with 1250?

7 Yes, but they wont stay at the artificially high ranking that they have obtained by luck for long if they are actually that bad, minimizing the overall effect. On the other hand, including low confidence in the calculation of ELO for new players helps to minimize the balance-shattering effect of surfs. 7 Yes, but they wont stay at the artificially high ranking that they have obtained by luck for long if they are actually that bad, minimizing the overall effect.
