theres a lot of ways to abuse this to be heavily scum favored and im not sure how fixable it is because i generally feel like point systems are a poor idea for things like this
2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.

essentially when you design a points system for something like this you have to outguess every possible way for scum to optimize the setup for their team and counter it

and generally it ends in a situation where the scum team has like a very limited number reasonable choices or else they are playing a townsided setup because of all the restrictions in setup building in play or else scum will be chain picking favorable setups for them when available
