Win chance for two players of the same rating. Civ is how much stronger or weaker your civ is than Vikings overall, with player skill taken out; Matchup is what the two civs' games against each other add on top. Head to head shows wins and losses in those games: "solid" with 150 or more, "fair" from 40, otherwise an early read that leans on civ strength.
