Tiger 13.0 (Rebel-Tiger II) is 50-70 ELO stronger than Tiger 12.0e >(Rebel-Tiger).

But how comfortable would you feel matching Gambit Tiger against computers? Its attractive style is sure to please the audiences and might even be an asset against humans, but wouldn't other silicon players tend to be less impressed? I readily admit to asking this based solely on a superficial "analysis". PK ps. The question I really felt like asking - but didn't - because it could have been considered unfair was: is it conceivable that you would enter Gambit Tiger instead of Tiger "proper" in a high-profile tournament any day soon? :-)
