In Response To: TOTAL COST (in XG) (Mislav Kovacic)

"The cost says how much match equity was given away per player. So that for instance player A has given away 10% and player B gave away 25%. This means that player A was 50% + (25% - 10%) = 65% favourite."

For what it's worth, this is also exactly the way Snowie calculates its 'Favorite' number. With this particular math, it is possible to be more than a 100% favorite, (which always freaks some people out.)
