By default, this is set to {user}: {elo}, but there are more options available. Here's a list:

To jump to the next line, you can use \n (newline).

{elo} = 1000.00

elo_int

The player's ELO, with no decimal digits.
{elo_int} = 1000

gxe

The player's GXE.
{gxe} = 90.0%

w

The player's victories.
{w} = 290

l (lowercase L)

The player's losses.
{l} = 100

t

The player's ties.
{t} = 0

g

Examples

• {user}: {elo_int} ELO, {gxe} GXE = Gen 8 Memes: 1200 ELO, 61.4% GXE
• Suspect requirements\n {gxe}/80% GXE\n {g}/40 games becomes:

Suspect requirements
61.4%/80% GXE
