In competitive esports each player is assigned an Elo rating that reflects their individual skill level. These ratings are dynamic, adjusting after every match based on performance against opponents of known strength.
When forming a team, the collective strength is not simply the sum of its parts; instead, analysts often use an aggregate metric that averages the individual Elo scores. This provides a quick snapshot of the team’s overall competitive standing.
The aggregate rating can be calculated with a straightforward arithmetic mean, which assumes each player contributes equally to the team’s performance. More sophisticated models may weight players differently, but the average remains a useful baseline for matchmaking and tournament seeding.
