Draft Puzzles and ELO

How to play

1. Log in with Discord. Puzzles need an account because your ELO is saved.
2. Choose Random or Daily, and optionally a difficulty: Any, Easy, Medium, Hard or Insane.
3. Read the draft: map, your allies, the enemies and the bans. Some puzzles ask for one pick, others for two or three in a row.
4. Click the brawlers you want, then Lock in. Click a pick again to take it back.
5. Read the result: your grade, your points, the best picks and why they were best.

How a puzzle is scored

The AI ranks every available brawler for the draft. The closer your pick is to the top of that ranking, the more points it earns.

• Perfect: the best pick.
• Great: among the very best picks.
• Good: a solid pick.
• Risky: a weak option here.
• Trap: far from what the AI recommends.

For puzzles with several picks, the points of your picks are added together. A pick can also be flagged Trap when it ignores the enemy team (it does not counter what the enemy has picked).

Grades and stars

Your total is turned into a grade from S (best) to D, and into one to three stars.

Hints

You have up to two hints per puzzle. Each one reduces your final score.

• Hint 1: tells you the class of the best pick (for example Tank or Marksman).
• Hint 2: rules out several weak brawlers.

ELO

Everybody starts at 1000 ELO. After each scored puzzle, your ELO moves according to your result: a strong result raises it, a weak one lowers it.

• The higher you climb, the smaller the changes.
• Replaying the puzzle of the day does not change your ELO, it counts once per day.

The puzzle leaderboard ranks the top 25 players by ELO and shows how many puzzles each has played. It is refreshed every few hours, so a new result may take a while to appear.

Daily limit

• Free players can score 10 puzzles per day. The counter resets at midnight UTC.
• The daily puzzle is always playable, even after the limit.
• Champions have unlimited puzzles.

The counter tracks scored puzzles. If the server fails while scoring, the attempt is given back.

Your draft profile

Champions see a profile built from their puzzle results: the classes they read best and worst, plus three skills: counter awareness, team play and meta knowledge. A skill or class is judged after at least 3 puzzles.
