Ok, I got it now. It is Strength of Schedule.

If you have the same 5 people playing a tournament and all games played by the same people, then whoever has the lowest ELO in average for all the races in the tournament will win.

Absurdly simple, like most riddles when you see the answer, as Wizards say.
