=== Strategy ===
 
It is always advantageous to top-rate a favorite candidate (RSV passes [[favorite betrayal criterion|no favorite betrayal]]), but the rating of other candidates requires assessment. Strategy under RSV depends on whether a front-runner is among a voter's top choices.
 
* If a front-runner is a top choice, under RSV a strategical voter has no incentive to reduce the rating of similar candidates, as in most systems. The opposite is true, in fact: they are encouraged to amplify their support towards allies as much as possible to obtain more of their support, while striking a balance so that their favorite remains a front-runner. Since faction ratings and mutual support are all interrelated, further strategy would require collaboration across competing groups.
