Leagues and league score
League score
Each player starts the game with a league score of 1000 points. After each ranked match in career a certain amount of league score points is exchanged between the opponents. The amount of exchanged league score points depends on the result, the league score difference between the opponents and the K factor used in the league of the deploying player.
The elo rating system[1] is used for the calculation of exchanged league score points:
Examples
If a player in Gold league (K factor 40) with a league score of 1000 points wins against an opponent with 1200 points he gets 30 points:
If the same player draws against that opponent he still gets 5 points, in case of a defeat he looses 10 points.

League promotion and demotion
Your league is determined by your current league score. You start in the Silver League. When your league score is lower (not equal) than your current league demotion score, you get demoted to the lower league. When your league score is equal or higher than your current league promotion score, you get promoted to the higher league.
K factor (the higher value, the faster league scores evolve, see Elo rating system)
League | Demotion score | Promotion score | K factor |
---|---|---|---|
Bronze | none | 1000 | 50 |
Silver | 950 | 1100 | 45 |
Gold | 1050 | 1250 | 40 |
Platinum | 1200 | 1400 | 35 |
Diamond | 1350 | 1600 | 30 |
