how does ELO actually work
and why do I get 4 for winning against someone 100+ elo from me and lose 16 for fighting someone my skill rank
not that I actually care about internet points but I'm curious why it's so wonky

Not possible if you're talking about 1v1 games.

ELO is divided in team games by the number of players and calculated/rounded downwards

ELO is broken so as it's working unintentedly it's hard to say result is right.

You're supposed to get more points if you win against someone who has a higher rating and lose more points if you lose against someone with a lower rating. If that's not happening, then it's likely another symptom of the game's Elo system being buggy.

Quite simply: It doesn't.

What you describe shouldn't happen. But the ELO system is completely broken, so people actually sometimes lose ELO if they win a game.

Since it has been broken for more than a year now I wouldn't expect a fix anytime soon ;-)
