I thanks you for your answer. Is this possible to create a guide about ratings ?
I saw nowhere that the meaning of "Drengr" means that the maximum rating has been < 1400.

There are others things that aren't easy to understand at first reading.
For example , what is the meaning of a "Karl (Arena Master)" in the context of ratings ?
