Question about this picture

Good question!
My guess would be that this would not count as much as a loss against 5 ranked players. Just speculating, either way, something will need to be done about the leavers/afkers.
ANet should release the formula.
If it’s anything like the WvW rating system, strength of win is part of it and people will stick around to lose 500-300 instead of eating a 500-150 loss and taking a bigger hit to their rating.
“We recognize that the changes to [ele] will essentially remove it from play. In the future,
we may consider whether or not there is an incarnation of [ele] that would be viable
but balanced. For now, we do not expect it to see serious use.” – ANet

I believe they’ve stated that they are using the Glicko algorithms for their mmr.
