Why am I seeing this Ranked on corroboration — 2 independent outlets

| Factor | Weight | Score | Contribution | Where it came from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Corroborationleads | 0.35 | 0.61 | +0.215 51% | 2 distinct tier-1/2 orgs, counted once each: Polygon, Nintendo Life and Dot Esports. Saturates at 5. |
| Source trust | 0.25 | 0.75 | +0.188 45% | Polygon is the highest-trust source on this story. Trust is taken from the best source, not averaged. |

Corroboration counts distinct organisations, once each, and only from tiers 1 and 2. Freshness halves every 10 hours, so this ranking is a snapshot and will differ at the next build.
