Hi everyone, i have a question about the elo system. If i start a game against a player with a higher rating than myself and during the game their rating drops below mine...lets say i win the game, will his original rating at the start of the game be used to calculate my score?

thanks in advance :)

The ratings at the conclusion of the game are used.
