vreesey [#6]Statistically speaking, the odds they win is 8.33%
🤓 Erm its actually 12.5% because PRX already qualified to playoffs
1/8=12.5%

Oh, thank you for the correction! I appreciate you pointing that out. It's important to be accurate, and I missed that detail about PRX already qualifying for the playoffs. Thanks for clarifying that the correct probability is 12.5%.

yeah but 100T clears so
Kryogenix [#10]yeah but 100T clears so
Got it, thanks for your input! We'll see if 100T really lives up to your high expectations. Should be interesting to watch!

well, it's actually a 0% chance historically speaking. PRX has made it to internation GF twice, and lost both times, therefore 0/2 = 0%. I'm hopeful that we can win this time though!

weirdos defending weirdos why am i not surprised

nah i know u ain't commenting with that weird ass username.
sdgdfdrgdrfgdrgdrfttdhy [#13]weirdos defending weirdos why am i not surprised
i'm not defending anyone. just don't care if someone's being a weirdo on here or not. we have mods for a reason, if it's really a problem they know what to do with it. anything else is attention seeking

scientific method says anything must be tested at least three times to confirm a hypothesis...

ik bro is not taking about the scientific method when he can't even do basic math.
DSGFan [#15]I mean, when some says "Name your price" to someone after seeing an alleged photo of them, don't you think that's weird and should be addressed?
idk but i'm not a mod. i don't make the rules so i don't make judgements about them. also didn't see it. also don't care tbh. i come on here for valorant not to be part of a witch hunt for weirdos online. if we just start witch hunting weirdos we're gonna run out of witches

which is not a bad thing.

it was more of a "didn't consider the fact that prx were already in playoffs" error, but you got it shorty

I do indeed want to run out of weirdos
Anoymouse [#24]which is not a bad thing.
who draws the lines? who's to say who gets to? you're arguing morality
DSGFan [#26]I do indeed want to run out of weirdos
i promise you someone thinks you're a weirdo too. if someone's doing something illegal or against site rules, ban them. otherwise turn the computer off
vreesey [#28]i promise you someone thinks you're a weirdo too. if someone's doing something illegal or against site rules, ban them. otherwise turn the computer off
when I say "weirdo", I'm refering to someone doing strange shit that which is naturally against site rules.
Anoymouse [#19]ik bro is not taking about the scientific method when he can't even do basic math.
and actually, my math was correct. at this point in the tourney all teams have an even chance to make it. 12 teams = 8.33% chance per team
Asuna_Yuuki [#7]🤓 Erm its actually 12.5% because PRX already qualified to playoffs
1/8=12.5%
after further consideration, my initial number was right. 12 teams all have an equal chance of winning the tourney right now. 12 teams = 8.33%. since the only thing that matters is winning the tourney, initial start point is irrelevant when determining potential outcomes
vreesey [#31]and actually, my math was correct. at this point in the tourney all teams have an even chance to make it. 12 teams = 8.33% chance per team
idk if u are being serious or what. @asuna_yuki can u deal with this fraud who can't do basic math.
DSGFan [#29]when I say "weirdo", I'm refering to someone doing strange shit that which is naturally against site rules.
i mean if the implication from the original post was sexual it would definitely be considered harassment and not cool, especially if they're a minor. it really wasn't about that situation, more just complaining about people's takes and making exposés about chatters on a stupid website
Anoymouse [#33]idk if u are being serious or what. @asuna_yuki can u deal with this fraud who can't do basic math.
ok let's try this: how many teams can win shanghai? 12
ok so if paper rex is one out of those 12 teams, what are their chances to win? 100/12=8.33
there's your answer. Khan Academy has great courses that might help you

You do realize that the last place paper rex can get is 8th right?

you don't get bonus % points for coming in 2nd-12th. it only hits if prx win. their chances of winning don't go up until teams are actually eliminated
you have to divide the % points between all possible winners, regardless of who is in playoffs or swiss stage
vreesey [#31]and actually, my math was correct. at this point in the tourney all teams have an even chance to make it. 12 teams = 8.33% chance per team
Let me put it to you this way
There are 12 teams in shanghai
8 teams in playoffs
Maximum percent size is 100%
The playoffs teams automatically qualify
That means it is essentially an 8 team tournament for them
In 100% of possible scenarios they will only be competing with 7 other teams
That means that there are 8 total teams competing for the title
8/100 = .125 = 12.5%

you are calculating the probability after matches have been played. each team has an even chance of winning Shanghai RIGHT NOW. regardless of format or where they are in the bracket.
every team
can win
shanghai
until
they have been eliminated.
by your math....
PRX - 12.5%
100T - 12.5%
FNC - 12.5%
EDG - 12.5%
=50%
-_-
leaving the rest of the 8 teams with a 6.25% chance

Yes these percentages are correct
Odds and probability are synonymous in this context
Each team DOES NOT have an even chance of winning Shanghai
How old are you, if you don't mind me asking?

the number of possible outcomes doesn't change just because they make playoffs. yes, when there are 8 teams left, there will be a 12.5% chance for all 8 teams, but right now there are 12 and each outcome is equally possible. and i'm not comfortable telling you my age.

Hmmm...
I think you are too young to understand yet young one, but you will eventually!
For with age, comes wisdom!

actually though that guy is fucking stupid. HOly shit this is what happens when u are on vlr too much.

bro literally google probability calculator i can't do this
Anoymouse [#46]actually though that guy is fucking stupid. HOly shit this is what happens when u are on vlr too much.
are you retarded or just pretending? what are the chances 100T is the winning team? Well being 1 out of 12 options i would say it's 1/12.
vreesey [#48]are you retarded or just pretending? what are the chances 100T is the winning team? Well being 1 out of 12 options i would say it's 1/12.
i can't dell with u

that's obviously a joke, I'm happy brimstan got banned since he was retarded but I don't think that was ban worthy
Anoymouse [#14]nah i know u ain't commenting with that weird ass username.
thank you so much for proving my point <3
