The RankSurge Performance Score is a 0 to 100 rating that compares five to eight key stats on a player profile with fixed reference bands we set for each game. It is our own score, not an official rating and not a percentile. Under 40 is Developing, 40 to 59 Solid, 60 to 79 Strong and 80 or more Elite.
This guide explains exactly how the score is calculated, which stats count in each game, how the Strengths and Improve next lists are picked and how Ask AI uses your numbers. It is current as of October 2026. Look up any Deadlock, CS2, Dota 2, Destiny 2 or PUBG player on the Player Lookup to see the score on a real profile.
What is the RankSurge Performance Score?
Every live player profile on RankSurge now opens with a dashboard panel. At the top is a ring with a number from 0 to 100 and a label, followed by key stat tiles, Strengths, Improve next, recent form and an Ask AI box. The score puts several hard-to-compare stats on one scale.
- Games covered: Deadlock, Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, Destiny 2 and PUBG: Battlegrounds, the games with live lookups on RankSurge.
- What it is: a RankSurge score built from reference bands we chose from typical public-profile ranges.
- What it is not: an official rating from Valve, Bungie or KRAFTON, a rank, or a percentile of all players. A score of 70 does not mean you beat 70% of players.
How is the Performance Score calculated?
Each scored stat has two marks: a value that earns 0 points and a value that earns full marks. The score follows the same steps for every game:
- Place each stat on its band: a stat earns points in a straight line between its 0-point mark and its full mark. Anything below the first mark scores 0 and anything past the second scores full marks.
- Flip stats where lower is better: deaths per match and CS2 reaction time score higher as they go down.
- Use a log scale for huge counts: Destiny 2 PvE clears and Triumph score can run into the thousands or hundreds of thousands, so they are compared on a log scale.
- Weight and add: each stat has a weight, and the weighted points are added up and scaled to 0 to 100.
- Handle missing data: stats a profile does not have are left out and the other weights are scaled up. If fewer than three stats are available, the panel shows "Not enough data yet" instead of a score.
For example, the Deadlock win rate band runs from 42% (0 points) to 58% (full marks) with a weight of 30. A 50% win rate sits halfway, so it earns 15 of 30 points. Open "How is this calculated?" under any score to see this table for that profile: each stat, its value, both marks and the points it earned. Profiles with fewer than 20 matches get a note that the score will move as more games are played.
Which stats feed the score in each game?
The table lists every scored stat with its 0-point mark, its full mark and its weight out of 100. These come straight from the scoring code on the site.
| Game | Stats in the score (0 points → full marks, weight) |
|---|---|
| Deadlock | Win rate 42% → 58% (30); KDA 1.5 → 4 (25); souls per minute 600 → 1,100 (20); last hits per minute 3 → 8 (10); deaths per match 8 → 4 (15) |
| Counter-Strike 2 | Win rate 42% → 58% (20); Leetify aim 30 → 80 (20); Leetify positioning 30 → 80 (10); Leetify utility 30 → 80 (10); headshot accuracy 10% → 25% (10); reaction time 750 ms → 450 ms (10); opening duels won 40% → 58% (10); Premier rating 5,000 → 25,000 (10) |
| Dota 2 | Win rate 45% → 58% (25); recent KDA 2 → 5 (20); gold per minute 350 → 650 (15); XP per minute 400 → 750 (15); last hits per minute 3 → 8 (10); deaths per match 9 → 4 (10); medal 1 → 8 (5) |
| Destiny 2 | Crucible K/D 0.7 → 1.6 (25); Crucible efficiency 1.0 → 2.2 (15); Crucible win rate 42% → 58% (20); PvE clears 100 → 5,000, log scale (15); Guardian Rank 1 → 11 (10); Triumph score 20,000 → 300,000, log scale (15) |
| PUBG | Win rate 1% → 8% (20); top 10 rate 10% → 40% (20); K/D 0.5 → 3 (25); average damage 100 → 350 (25); headshot kills 10% → 30% (10) |
The numbers behind each stat come from each game's data source: Deadlock API for Deadlock (a community project not endorsed by Valve), Leetify for the CS2 aim, positioning and utility scores, OpenDota for Dota 2, the Bungie.net API for Destiny 2 and the official PUBG API for PUBG. Our stats explained hub covers what each stat means.
What do Developing, Solid, Strong and Elite mean?
The label is set only by the number. It describes where a profile sits against our bands, not a rank or a skill tier from the game.
| Score | Label | What it suggests |
|---|---|---|
| 0 to 39 | Developing | Most scored stats sit near the low end of our bands. Plenty of room to grow. |
| 40 to 59 | Solid | A mix of stats in the middle of the bands, with some strong areas. |
| 60 to 79 | Strong | Most stats are well into their bands, and several are close to full marks. |
| 80 to 100 | Elite | Nearly every scored stat is at or past our strong mark. |
How do Strengths and Improve next work?
Below the score, the panel sorts the scored stats from best to worst on their bands, then picks from each end so the same stat never appears twice.
- Strengths: up to three of the highest-scoring stats, with a note on whether each one is past our strong mark or in a good range.
- Improve next: the one or two lowest-scoring stats (two when at least five stats are scored). Stats already at full marks are never listed here.
- Next target: each Improve next item suggests a realistic target about one third of the band above your current value, capped at the full mark, plus a short practice tip for that stat.
- Recent form: win and loss chips for the latest matches we can see, or placements for PUBG, with a note on whether your recent win rate is above or below your overall one.
How does Ask AI use your stats?
The Ask AI box under each dashboard lets you ask a question about the profile in front of you, such as "What should I improve first?". Its rules:
- Only the stats on the page: the AI coach is sent the stat lines shown on the profile and your question, and is told to answer only from them. If the answer needs data we do not have, it says so.
- No invented numbers: answers are short, two to five sentences or a few bullets, with practical advice.
- No shortcuts: it will not give cheating, boosting or account-sharing advice.
- Daily limit: 10 free questions a day. RankSurge Pro members get unlimited questions.
AI answers can still be wrong, so check them against your own matches. The player name is shown on the page only; it is not sent to the AI model.
What are the limits of the Performance Score?
One number cannot tell the whole story, so read the score with these limits in mind:
- Role matters: a Dota 2 hard support or a Deadlock support hero will often have lower farm and kill stats than a carry, even when playing well.
- Privacy matters: private or missing stats are left out, which changes what the score is based on.
- Bands are ours: we may adjust bands as games change, and we will update this guide when we do.
The fairest comparison is between players in the same game and role. AI Profile Pick lines up two profiles side by side and explains which one looks stronger and why.

Frequently asked questions
What is the RankSurge Performance Score?
The RankSurge Performance Score is a 0 to 100 rating shown on every live player profile for Deadlock, Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, Destiny 2 and PUBG. It compares five to eight key stats with fixed reference bands we set for each game, weights them and adds them up. It is a RankSurge score, not an official rating from Valve, Bungie or KRAFTON, and it is not a percentile of all players.
How is the Performance Score calculated?
Each scored stat has a 0-point mark and a full-marks mark, and it earns points in a straight line between them. Stats where lower is better, like deaths, are flipped, and very large Destiny 2 counts use a log scale. The weighted points are added and scaled to 0 to 100. Missing stats are left out and the other weights scale up, and at least three stats are needed for a score.
What does a Developing, Solid, Strong or Elite score mean?
The label comes only from the number. A score under 40 is Developing, 40 to 59 is Solid, 60 to 79 is Strong and 80 or more is Elite. It describes where a profile sits against our reference bands, not a rank, medal or skill tier from the game. Two players with the same in-game rank can have different scores because the score looks at stats like win rate, KDA and farm.
Is the Performance Score a percentile?
No. A score of 70 does not mean a player beats 70% of other players. The bands are reference points we chose from typical public-profile ranges, not a ranking of everyone who plays. We do not publish percentile claims unless a publisher has released the data behind them. Use the score to track your own progress and to compare players in the same game and role.
How are Strengths and Improve next chosen?
The panel sorts your scored stats from best to worst on their bands. Strengths shows up to three of the best. Improve next shows the one or two weakest, two when at least five stats are scored, and never lists a stat already at full marks. Each Improve next item suggests a target about one third of the band above your current value, plus a short practice tip.
How many questions can I ask the AI about my stats?
Free users can ask 10 questions a day in the Ask AI box on any profile. RankSurge Pro members get unlimited questions. The AI coach answers only from the stats shown on that profile and says so when a question needs data we do not have. It gives short, practical answers and will not help with cheating, boosting or account sharing. Answers can be wrong, so check them against your matches.
