+91 elo.

Super.

Thanks everyone. 91 is a bit lower than I hoped for, but I have no prior data on scaling for GRL so can't draw any conclusions yet I suppose

Berserk 4.3.0 is officially released .

Another large release for Berserk, the biggest change in this patch being fully-phased move generation allowing for a massive speed-up. Self play results showed ~160 Elo in VSTC and ~130 Elo in LTC. Hoping that 50% of this self-play Elo bears fruit
