skill level
The skill level is a number or other element of an ordered set , with the ability describes a player to win against other players. The term is often used in strategy games.
General
In many strategy games and institutions (associations, game servers, ...) a system is used that largely corresponds to that of the Elo rating. However, the numbers determined in this way are not readily comparable, since the parameters that contribute to the calculation of the skill level are often chosen differently.
Go
There are three levels of skill level: Student level ( Kyū ), Master level ( Dan ) and Profigrade (also Dan). An absolute beginner has a skill level of »30. Kyu «. As the level of play increases, the kyu level drops to »1. Kyu «, which corresponds to a good club player. Players who are stronger are classified as »1. Dan «. This scale goes up to the »6. Dan ", sometimes up to the" 7th Dan". There is a special scale for go professionals, ranging from »1. Dan «until» 9. Dan «goes.
chess
At the international level, the skill level in chess is expressed with the Elo number . Beginners have a skill level of around 700 Elo, current top players are over 2700 Elo.
In Germany, the German rating number (DWZ) is common, which works in a similar way to the Elo rating .
