Rejected Telling rating change before/as game starts

[pokemonisfun]

Hi -

As the game starts, could we see the expected rating change? Like next to the team?

it could be in the form of "+8 for winning / -25 for losing", we could take out the words too. We could also put the expected GXE change.

This would help guide ladder runs if you're going for a goal or reqs.

I know this might change if someone gets another game in the middle of the game - perhaps lock in the rating change to the starting Elo?

Sorry if this question is obvious but, doesn't one always want to win a ladder battle? Specially if they are doing reqs or ladder runs. What would be the point of wanting to know how much ELO will you get if you win, if your objective is always winning anyways?

Rejecting for similar reasons to Irpachuza. Projected expected change won't even be necessarily correct if either player completes other games before the current game finishes. There's no benefit to having the info before the game as opposed to after.
