Elo is like a rating that will determine your ranking. You start on 1200 elo when you reach lvl 30, but it will not show up until youve completed 10 games

Your first 15 games will grant around 40-50 elo, win or lose. and your elo gain or loss will decrease slowly the more you play, at around 100 games + you will gain or loss around 12elo

Elo gain or loss is determined by a system that predicts the winning team, if your team is predicted to win becuase the players in your team are better you will gain for example 11elo, but if this "winning" team somehow gets beaten by the "underdog" team, you will lose 13 elo. THis is approximated elo gain or loss, but the system works something like this.
