EXPLAIN THE POINTS IS IT JUST RANDOM

No. Random would at least be funny. ToT seems to be using some variant of Elo rating, butchered to fit 1-month long seasons.

Not even that, there is seemingly no mathematical consistency. Check the wild fluctuations from my thread tracking my gains vs losses: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/689859/ranked-system-gains-vs-loss-is-very-broken#latest

Unless very niche things are considered per match, like if you pick Mora, the more you use the Mora patron, the less points you get for a win?

Maybe how long you take during your turn (which would be incredibly stupid considering some card decks require you to take very long turns, or if you need to read a new deck you have not played against, why would you punish someone for that)?

Or maybe if someone concedes at the very last turn when they were going to lose, maybe that nukes the about of points you would gain for winning (this would also be really dumb/unfair imo)..

All speculation of course, which is why I would like them to give us transparency as to what factors matter in the calculation of the score.

The only non-score factor that may be in the formula is first/second turn, I don't think ZOS included any others you might think of.
