Methodology Note
All scores on the SkillsBoard are derived from a weighted combination of panel critique, community voting, and algorithmic analysis of output across the trailing 12 months. Artists must have released qualifying material within the period to be eligible. Individual skill scores feed into the overall ranking through a weighted formula that reflects the relative difficulty and rarity of each skill.
