I personally will not be following the event if any of ACCM ,Dogao, or Yo is not in it. There is no point watching a show if it's so rigged that we know for sure who are the favors to win, namely Lierrey or Hera.
Seeing Viper, who didn't win a single RBW, above DauT, reminds me of the way USA counts olympic medals: giving equal weight to gold, silver and bronze medals. LolI recreated them, but others also did it with the proper points, credit to RobChang, possibly Nerfox? It was posted on the Liquipedia discord and then Nili's discord: View attachment 195721
Viper placed better than Daut in three out of four events, his better positions is completely deservedSeeing Viper, who didn't win a single RBW, above DauT, reminds me of the way USA counts olympic medals: giving equal weight to gold, silver and bronze medals. Lol
Yeah someone who won once but dropped out in the group stage and stranded in the quarter finals should definitely be above someone who finished 2nd once, stranded in the semi's twice and in the quarters once /sSeeing Viper, who didn't win a single RBW, above DauT, reminds me of the way USA counts olympic medals: giving equal weight to gold, silver and bronze medals.

I get the point. But DauT is still a champion, and Viper is not (when talking about RBW, obviously).Yeah someone who won once but dropped out in the group stage and stranded in the quarter finals should definitely be above someone who finished 2nd once, stranded in the semi's twice and in the quarters once /s
Yeah that's like saying that silver/bronze medals have equal value to gold in olympics for ranking purposes.Viper placed better than Daut in three out of four events, his better positions is completely deserved

I gotcha. Sorry, I ended up making a bit of a discussion when I didn't intend it. I meant to say it's curious how DauT is below Viper when he won a tournament, not that the method of ranking is wrong. But I acknowledge my tone gave another interpretation.Winning IS worth more points than coming 2nd, but it isn't an order of magnitude larger, otherwise whats the point? Just rank everyone based on how often they came first and be done with it.
For example, from the Tournament ATP Rankings (this isn't necessarily the same scoring system as RBW, but illustrates the point). Consistent rules over the long term is reward more than having on extreme performance and doing poorly at other times
