Players Want Real Ratings,
Not Fake Ranks
Most games hide real MMR behind tiers like “Gold 3” and leave players confused when their rank changes don’t make sense. IVK Skill fixes that. Our rating system is accurate, explainable, and built to be shown to players. You decide how it behaves. They get a number they can trust.
Key Player-Facing Features
Simple Inputs
IVK Skill is built for developers, not mathematicians. Configuration is clear and approachable, with no need to learn sigma, mu, or other statistical variables.
Stateless Solution
A single match result is enough to update ratings. No need for large data syncs or long histories.
Team vs. Individual Dynamics
Per-game mode configuration allows fine-tuning of how individual versus team performance impacts rating adjustments.
Placement Matches
Configure how placement matches behave, including how many are played, how volatile early ratings are, and how quickly players converge to their true skill.
Partial Match, Rejoins, and Team Rebalances
Support full or partial MMR updates for players who quit, drop and rejoin, or even switch teams mid-match.
Game Mode Agnostic
Works out of the box for 1v1, 5v5, FFA, battle royale, objective-based modes, and anything in between.
Over 30 Configurable Inputs
Fine-tune convergence speed, placement volatility, team weighting, and more with straightforward parameters.
Retries and Fallback
Configurable retry and fallback logic is built into the SDK. Handle failures automatically without writing your own error recovery.
Monitor with Graphtor BI
Our built-in tools help you track how players are performing and whether your system is working as intended. See DAU, MAU, player progression, and MMR over time.
