How is TSM still top 3 NA

they haven't played in over 2 weeks, and the past games they have played they either bodied obviously inferior competition or got destroyed by teams that should be their equal. They haven't been able to compete with NA's top dogs like Sentinels and 100 Thieves. In the two events they have been in since 2021 started, they got 1st-4th in the qualifier and 5th/6th in the main event for Champions tour Stage 1 Challenger 3, and 5th-8th in the Stage 1 Challenger 2 qualifier. Are they just being carried by the points they got early in the game when they were considered one of the best teams in the world?

Yes. That is also why cloud 9 is still 8th when they should actually be around 15-20

lack of decay unfortunately really do that

VLR ranking are not official rankings so dont worry about that

They should recalculate every 15-20 game or once a 3 months

where are the official ranks?

Take tarkov away from Wardell and then top 3

It's because you can calculate how much elo you should lose when you lose to a certain team, but can't calculate how important that win was to the team's success. If TSM is out of Masters they should've lost a lot more elo for losing tbh.
