Frequently asked questions
What does the Watchability Score mean?
The score runs from 0 to 100 and measures a completed game's entertainment value. Higher scores are stronger replay recommendations, not predictions.
Is this spoiler-free?
Yes. These pages show watchability ratings, not final match scores or winners, so you can choose a replay without learning the result.
How often do rankings update?
Rankings update when newly completed games receive published Watchability Scores. Existing scores remain unchanged; there is no guaranteed update time.
