Rating system for Ranked SCs is weird

Hello.

I haven't read about rating systems like Glicko or others, but i assume that:

If you win against stronger ppl -> Increases MMR by X
If you win against weaker ppl -> Increases MMR by Y
If You lose against stronger ppl -> Decreases MMR by ~Y
If you lose against weaker ppl -> Decreases MMR by ~X

Weaker = Average MMR lower than yours.
Stronger = Average MMR higher than yours.

Where X > Y

Currently, this is not working like that, and i have a few proofs. I play Order.

Image

Order average MMR = 1577.66
Destuction average MMR = 1587.5
Avg Diff = 9.84 (Destruction higher)

Order victory, and i got +8 MMR.

Next match:
Image

Order average MMR = 1617.5
Destuction average MMR = 1719.5
Avg Diff = 102 (Destruction higher)

Order defeated, and i lost 9 MMR

I lost more MMR against stronger ppl than what i get if i win against stronger ppl....

Its the first week since Ranked SCs relase, i know that and Rating System will change, but currently its working weird.

So i assume that RoR implements Glicko-2 system for Ranked SCs, I'm going to read how it works.
Thank you very much.
