Hot Take VLR rankings

I think the ranking system here on VLR is good (needs minor adjustments). It takes into account both longevity and recent winnings. So FNC who have been great most of the year stay high, while SMB (who are great) have to work their way up the system due to newfound success.

Those that complain about the system seem to think one event is good enough to be 1st on the rankings and don't take into account the WHOLE 2021 YEAR.

Ted Talk over.... I will see myself out.

You are right... but C9B too high on NA rankings they had 1 fluke run much like TSM tbh... GenG have been much more consistent all year also luminosity too low for being as good as they have been

I agree to a certain degree..... which calls in the minor adjustments. I think the VLR rankings need to find some balcence towards the weight of events...C9B ran all over everyone in the NSG event, thus shot up the ranking system.... which isn't far to a team like TSM who won the closed qual against Faze.

Do i think TSM and C9B are better than Faze? yes, but to say C9B are better than XSET based off the NSG event.. is a bit much

NSG is C tier event but closed quals are A tier the fact that C9 even got into the top 10 is insane to me tbh
For reference that would be like a team winning MDL getting placed into top 5 but a team that made it to Flashpoint main event getting placed at 8th

Also im like 99% sure that certain tournaments are already weighted more so like masters > qualifiers and lans above that so that in theory is already accounted for but enigma has been saying ranking would be getting a remake so we gotta wait

I agree that NSG is a C-tier event ... the week events that is. But the Summer Champs NSG had strong representation for a B-tier event. And C9B appropriately bossed everyone. C9B's big success was GF loss to SEN and a 3rd place finsh for Iceland ( which is top 8 now for me). the main problem, which everyone points out is that there is not alot of events for Valorant to even understand how good teams are. I think 100T Ethan said it best "teams should be separated bwt , Good, inconsistent and bad" .

I think TSM and C9B are not bad, but inconsistent teams... whereas XSET has found new success and I still think it should be a wait-and-see for them.
