"Par" (averaged over datasets) for both is ~ 50.00% for PRB and ~ 35.00% for PRB^2. At the core of these metrics is basic Head2Head type analysis. See attached-

One slight downfall of both these metrics are that winners receive the same value no matter the FS - a winner beating 4 rivals receives 100% , the same as a winner beating 12 rivals - to rectify this you could just use the H2H counts and incorporate (1-(1/FS)*100 as an additional component - see attached again
