The patch rebalances the formula, redistributes weight across kills, damage, survival, and Round Swing, and adds an eco-adjustment toggle for clearer insights. The goal is to restore a 60\/40 balance between output (kills, impact, damage) and cost (survival, KAST) \u2014 a modern take on the structure used in Rating 2.0.<\/p>\n<h3>How the Formula Changed<\/h3>\n<p>The key idea is simple \u2014 kills matter more again. After 3.0 launched, the Round Swing metric carried too much influence. HLTV reduced its weight so it now works as an impact modifier, not the main factor. Raw numbers like kills and damage once again define most of a player\u2019s performance. Swing, KAST, and Multi-Kill ratings now act as supporting stats instead of decisive ones.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-283383\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_194.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1201\" height=\"551\" srcset=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_194.webp 1201w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_194-300x138.webp 300w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_194-1024x470.webp 1024w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_194-768x352.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1201px) 100vw, 1201px\" \/><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <p class=\"article-h3\">read more<\/p>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <div class=\"type3 y-red-dif hover-card card-more\">\n        <a class=\"type3__left up-to-card hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/hltv-to-award-mvp-for-cs-asia-championships-2025\">\n        <div class=\"bg-bottom-abs-short\"> <\/div>\n        <picture class=\"picture object-fit-cover\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"picture__img object-fit-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Gx_9YgQWgAEdpEl-1.jpg.webp\" alt=\"HLTV may revise MVP award standards after events in Shanghai\">\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/a>\n        <div class=\"type3__right main-structure p-20\">\n        <div class=\"type3__top\">\n            <a class=\"type3__title title-24 hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/hltv-to-award-mvp-for-cs-asia-championships-2025\">HLTV may revise MVP award standards after events in Shanghai<\/a>\n            <a class=\"go-arrow hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/hltv-to-award-mvp-for-cs-asia-championships-2025\">\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__left go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779155872#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__center go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779155872#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__right go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779155872#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/a><\/div>\n        <div class=\"type3__bottom blue-labels mt-auto\">\n            <div class=\"blue-label disabled\">Oct 27 2025<\/div>\n            <a class=\"blue-label\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\">News<\/a>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Round Swing \u2014 Less Chaos, More Logic<\/h3>\n<p>Early feedback showed that Rating 3.0 rewarded clutch moments too heavily. HLTV has adjusted how Swing is shared at the end of each round:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">1 share for clutch situations<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">2 shares for advantage-building kills (WPA)<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">1 share for defusing or trading<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">1 share for surviving a won round<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This change prevents one player from receiving all the credit for a round-winning frag when teammates contributed equally. Impact is now shared more fairly among everyone who shaped the round.<\/p>\n<h3>Eco-Adjustment \u2014 Fairer Evaluation<\/h3>\n<p>The new eco-adjustment toggle is now visible on match pages.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">eK-eD shows an economy-adjusted K\/D that reflects how expected each duel outcome was. A kill with an AK versus a Glock, for instance, counts less than the reverse.<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">eADR and eKAST are also adjusted for economy to limit \u201ceco farming.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For AWPers, who often record lower ADR, the update softens the penalty so snipers aren\u2019t underrated for their playstyle.<\/p>\n<h3>Who Gained the Most<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-283364\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_193.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1202\" height=\"736\" srcset=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_193.webp 1202w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_193-300x184.webp 300w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_193-1024x627.webp 1024w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot_193-768x470.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1202px) 100vw, 1202px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Most players moved by less than \u00b10.02 rating points, but some outliers stand out.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">donk \u2014 The Clear Winner<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Danil \u201cdonk\u201d Kryshkovets rose from 1.34 to 1.38 thanks to his explosive playstyle and a 1.59 Kill Rating. The update perfectly fits his high-impact, high-output game.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">ZywOo, m0NESY, NiKo<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each gained a small boost (+0.01 to +0.02) due to consistent damage and survival.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">EliGE, broky, karrigan<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>More passive or IGL-focused players lost a bit (\u20130.03 to \u20130.07) since the new version rewards raw performance over strategy.<\/p>\n<h3>Role Impact<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img-cdn.hltv.org\/gallerypicture\/U6oA5MuVAqcJajE5awNNqA.png?auto=compress&amp;ixlib=java-2.1.0&amp;q=75&amp;w=1200&amp;s=9197d46a93bc081cda142b9298c7e24d\"><\/p>\n<p>The new averages show entry fraggers benefit the most, as opening kills now carry greater value. AWPers improved slightly after eco-adjustment changes.\u00a0 IGLs dropped a bit, as macro decisions matter less than direct contribution.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example \u2014 FaZe vs Liquid (IEM Cologne 2025)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img-cdn.hltv.org\/gallerypicture\/SSfwuRtD51KhB63rOjw9yz.png?auto=compress&amp;ixlib=java-2.1.0&amp;q=75&amp;w=1200&amp;s=ee12442ba904917d3f0dcc95159d468f\"><\/p>\n<p>In the FaZe vs Liquid match, the change is clear. frozen (1.76) ended above ultimate (1.66) despite the Pole having a stronger Swing (+9.1%). Direct output (eKPR, eADR) now matters more than isolated clutch rounds.<\/p>\n<h3>Purpose and Context<\/h3>\n<p>The previous formula relied too heavily on context rather than results. This sometimes caused anomalies \u2014 players finishing 8-8 outscoring those at 12-4. The reworked version better reflects the relationship between production and impact, while keeping analytical depth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Match Recalculation and Annual Impact<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>All matches have been recalculated using the updated formula. This means EVPs and the Top 20 Players of 2025 will rely on the new system. HLTV will also re-evaluate EVPs from July \u2013 October 2025 to ensure consistency.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <p class=\"article-h3\">read more<\/p>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <div class=\"type3 y-red-dif hover-card card-more\">\n        <a class=\"type3__left up-to-card hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/hltv-rating-3-0-cs2-update\">\n        <div class=\"bg-bottom-abs-short\"> <\/div>\n        <picture class=\"picture object-fit-cover\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"picture__img object-fit-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image-16.webp\" alt=\"HLTV launches Rating 3.0: a revolution in evaluating CS2 players\">\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/a>\n        <div class=\"type3__right main-structure p-20\">\n        <div class=\"type3__top\">\n            <a class=\"type3__title title-24 hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/hltv-rating-3-0-cs2-update\">HLTV launches Rating 3.0: a revolution in evaluating CS2 players<\/a>\n            <a class=\"go-arrow hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/hltv-rating-3-0-cs2-update\">\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__left go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779155872#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__center go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779155872#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__right go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779155872#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/a><\/div>\n        <div class=\"type3__bottom blue-labels mt-auto\">\n            <div class=\"blue-label disabled\">Aug 21 2025<\/div>\n            <a class=\"blue-label\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\">News<\/a>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>What\u2019s Next<\/h3>\n<p>Valve\u2019s latest economy patch changed round dynamics, so HLTV plans another adjustment once enough new data arrives.
