I do not know.
If the list is not based on enough games the difference is not significant and
it is also clear that
the tripple brain has no chance in blitz when I believe that chessbits rating
list is based  mainly on blitz.

I know from the past that the list is based on games at different time control
when most of the games are blitz.

The tripple brain means that both engines get only half of the time to search.
It may work at tournament time control but at blitz I expect the tripple brain
to be outsearched.

>(just or comparison, in the same list Tiger 14 is rated #1 with 2780, and Deep

Ir only proves that we cannot trust this list for tournament games.

Deep Fritz single is at the same level as Tiger based on the ssdf games so I do
not believe that Deep fritz dual can be weaker than Tiger14.
