1083 duels later, Strawberry is still #1 in the Mochi ranking, with Banana close behind.

Strawberry claims the top spot with 1320 ELO points after 110 duels, but the race stays tight. A 36-point gap separates it from Banana at 1284 ELO, the sharpest divide in the top five. Peach follows at 1273 ELO, while Chocolate sits at 1259 ELO and Pistachio at 1244 ELO.

Traditional and experimental flavors alike struggle to challenge the fruit-forward leaders.

How this ranking is computed

Every duel won lifts a contender and every loss drops them, by an amount that depends on the opponent's strength: beating the leader is worth more than beating the last. It is an ELO, the same principle as in chess. Duels are not drawn at random — an adaptive entropy sort puts the least predictable match-ups first, which settles the ranking far faster than a full round robin. A worldwide ranking is only published past 30 completed plays. Known limit: a contender who has faced few opponents keeps an approximate score, and the bottom of the table moves more than the podium.
