This is another victory for the Berserk 12.1 engine, proving that it is the strongest of the mid-range chess engines. The Obsidian 10.0 engine is getting better and better. He just won the 3rd league with a large advantage and was promoted higher. Soon it will probably reach the strongest - 1st league of chess engines!

The tournament was won by the Renegade 1.0.0 engine, a version that was released just a few days ago - January 16, 2024. (see here). This gave him a gain of as much as 50 ranking points.
Second place was taken by the Lizard 10.1 engine. It has problems with proper operation in GUI - Fritz 15 and 17, but in GUI-Aquarium it worked properly.
Third place was taken by the Drofa 4.1.0 engine, which overtook the Greko engine with better additional points.
The three engines mentioned above were promoted to TOP-64 and will play in the league in the 02/2024 edition.
