Streak win: 4 points
Berserk Win: 3 points

5 points straight is a streak win in berserk mode.
Translation: after 2 wins in a row you're on a streak - every immediately subsequent win is then worth double. This continues until you lose or draw a game; the streak is then finished and you must win 2 games in a row again to start a new streak.
Berserk mode must be started befor your 1st move; your clock time is halved (and any increment is cancelled), but you get an additional point for a win.
