To prevent inactive players from sitting on stale ratings, DUPR applies an exponential decay function to historical match data. Matches played within the last 30 days exert maximum influence on a player's rating curve. As matches age past the half-life window, their mathematical weight in the algorithm decays exponentially, ensuring ratings reflect current competitive form.
