Do you have any wacky comp ideas?
Like on Breeze could quadruple controller work? Omen (Duelist), Harbor (Flex), Astra (smokes/anchor), Viper (Smokes/Anchor), Sova?

sorry mate just updated the scores as i made a mistake, youre third now
Here is a graph for Americas teams' elo over time
Which playoffs? If you mean Stage 1 playoffs, the games haven't started yet
nw.
I could try doing it starting from 2023 but it would take a long time and there would be many bugs (like Giants changing name to GiantX, plus teams coming in and out), that it might not end up accurate...
G2 end Kickoff 2nd highest rated, behind FUR. At Santiago they climbed high enough above the rest of Americas teams by performing well such that, even after losing their first game, they were above FUR and 100T, the next closest teams. After that, their record of 3-1 kept them above the other top teams.
Just VCT 2026 matches. So kickoff, stage 1, and santiago.
EDIT: My formula was off. Ratings are now updated.
This is a project I recently threw together.
Note that the matches are all weighted evenly, and do not account for subs, map diff, etc.
Still working on the graphs and stuff but for now here's the current elo of all VCT teams (starting rating is 1600):
Global Top 10
AMERICAS
PACIFIC
EMEA
CHINA
If you have any questions I can try my best to answer
22-24 is crazy
I think lots of teams will still pick Jett for comfort.
So Jett, Sova, Killjoy, Viper, and a flex slot of literally any agent (Sage/Harbor mostly, but Omen, Kayo, Gekko, even Iso or something could see lots of pick).
is this the guy that was talking weirdly to girls?
it only takes one bad apple to disgrace a tree...
every fan base is gonna have idiots
Oh then he should 100% take the last spot no? he can flex a lot and can IGL.
mada Duelist/Flex
TenZ Omen/Duelist
koala Smokes/Killjoy
NiSMO Second Initiator/Sentinel
eeiu Recon
TenZ can flex onto initiators and controllers, he can be the flex player while koala can be the smokes player.
who though? looking at NA T2 stats, the only ones maybe worth considering are stallion, Kyu, and maybe XXiF and foreign.
is NiSMO canadian?
mada Entry Duelist
TenZ Flex
koalanoob Smokes/Sentinel
zander/JonahP Sentinel/Smokes
eeiu Initiator
Can we please ban this guy. Everybody go look at his comment history, this is obviously a bot.
VLR is the last place I expected this kinda stuff to happen but holy shit.
shaky last couple rounds but i’m sure everyone was just a bit tired.
feeling pretty confident abt the team, let’s go!
He has 1 game each on Cypher and Killjoy, and 0 on vyse, but it's entirely possible for him to learn them
That or spike plays sentinel too
H2H still applies if it's 4-way tie, you check H2H match score first, where MIBR is 3-0 against everyone else in the 4. so they are their own subset, as 1st, and then you reset with other 3.
if NRG wins then it's KRU, FUR, 100T, NRG
if SEN wins then it's KRU, SEN, FUR, 100T
There's a 4-way tie, so first check Match H2H. MIBR is 3-0, G2 is 1-2, LEV is 1-2, LOUD is 1-2.
So MIBR is guaranteed 1 seed. Then it goes to a 3-way tie between G2, LEV, LOUD. They are all 1-1 against each other, so we go to map diff.
G2 is +1, LEV is +0, LOUD is -1. So the order is G2, LEV, LOUD.
G2 vs Omega #3 (100T or FUR). Winner plays KRU, loser plays LOUD.
Omega #2 (FUR or SEN) vs LEV. Winner plays MIBR, loser plays Omega #4 (NRG or 100T).
that's fair, before i think it was pretty obvious when the changes needed to happen though. FNS clearly wasn't working out for them, he'd been there for like 3 years with no consistent results. Credit to him though for taking the leap on Ethan IGL.
tbh even if they lose today, none of the players have shown enough for me to want to replace anyone of them. maybe other fans will disagree, but they've all been solid.
Maybe at the end of the year we can have this conversation again.
can't really argue any of these. maybe for pearl game 5 of bangkok gf, that was an absolute cinema map
NRG vs LOUD at lock in has to be a good shout
ah those are acc good tips. yeah maybe not serbia then, probably misremembering something.
thanks!
in terms of regionguessing, i like philippines as the signs usually have a good if youre in a more urban area.
europe is pretty easy if you have a sign, the languages are good to at least narrow down which area of europe in, and almost always, the country (for me though i confuse the eastern european ones like slovak, czech, serbian, croatian, etc a lot)
if we get 4th seed we play loser of 100T and G2 for our first game i think...
no
if LEV win then MIBR and G2 are 3-2, and LOUD are 2-3 with NV, and LOUD have tie-breaker.
if LOUD win then there are no other 2-3 teams. so NV is guaranteed 5th.
TL;DR:
you would go to h2h map diff, not overall map diff

Here are the updated odds and qualifying paths for all teams
It's pretty likely that LOUD are 4th, but C9, LEV, and G2 could all potentially be 4th
i feel like sometimes they do this when there are a lot of VCT matches ongoing? To avoid clutter. At least that's what I've seen a couple times in the past.
But yeah it's pretty inexcusable when there's a filter
At their 100T peaks: Cryo Sentinel, eeiu Initiator, bang Controller, Boostio Sentinel/IGL, Asuna duelist
All time peaks: Ethan Flex/IGL, Cryo Sentinel, eeiu initiator, Derrek Flex, dicey Duelist
I mean what would the roles be?
Timotino Neon
vora Cypher?
Asuna Sova?
bang Omen
or Asuna Omen, vora Sova, bang Cypher
or Asuna Cypher
nothing really works
