No, i am sorry, but this is not the point of the list. The point of the list is to show which teams (and by 'team' i mean 'brand' as someone else pointed out) was the most succesful in the past 12 months.

Again, that's a completely useless point. Who exactly is this demographic that cares about success in an arbitrary 12 month time frame?

Besides. Everyone knows the answer is Alliance, because they won like $1,000,000 more than any other team. Except your site, apparently.

Well, from the looks of this thread, your target audience doesn't look to be very big. As I said before,
So you can either accept the criticisms and try to make something worthwhile, or you can keep plugging your ears and not get a single hit after a week.

I'd more point to the problem being the demand isn't that huge, but the supply (datdota, joindota, dotabuff) is sufficient.

Any small amount of actual poking around on the site shows that it's a decent wealth of information, and like any wealth of information if you decide it means something that it doesn't actually mean, it won't be any use to you.

The site's not bad. Though, for any of my stats needs I'm still more likely to end up at datdota than e-rankings.

lmfao this is such a joke, i'm sorry. it's so biased and irrelevant i wouldn't understand why anyone would take this seriously. when i saw the rankings i instantly knew this was clearly made with the intention of facilitating the ego's of western fanboys. this ranking is more of a popularity contest than it is an actual recognition of skill. of course the top 2 western teams who won IT are 1 and 2, but the eastern team who won it is 4th. of course the team that currently shits on both navi and alliance (cough dk) are 3rd.

Apparently according to this TL is a Netherlands team? lol.

Like may people said, this ranking is less of a ranking and more of who has been around longer. So many of these rankings are completely stupid and not current at all. LGD 5th? TongFu 7th? Dafaq?

i believe the rankings are based off of where the team's organization is located, so TL is netherlands and fnatic is UK

And this sites logic about a lot of stuff is pretty flawed. It's seems like the creator made a lot of decisions based on abaritary lines in the sand.

Thank god it doesn't look very big. That would confirm my thoughts about most people being stupid.

Nono i meant the timespan which you would use to determine the ranks... you said they should be calculated using "current performance" - but what timespan is "current"?

I did not say that they should be calculated using "current performance". I said:

Meaning that if two teams met, the team with the higher ranking would be favoured. As far as calculating go, I think the Elo or Glicko rating systems work well.

I agree to that, which is why the ranking and its database is the core of e-Rankings but not the only feature.

Dota 2 World Ranking of December:

[image loading]

Evil Geniuses stays on the top of the Dota 2 World Ranking in December. The american team won ASUS ROG DreamLeague Season 2 which was their only tournament this month but by far enough to stay ahead of their opponents.

This is to some degree because there is simply no opponent for Arteezy, Fear, ppd and their teammates so far. Both Vici Gaming and Alliance who improved to ranks 2 and 3 suffered from losses in November. Only Natus Vincere won a major tournament, but the ukranian team is just coming back from slump and has a long way to go back to the top.

Cloud 9 and Newbee are sneaking up

The real dangers for Evil Geniuses are lurking behind a bit: Both Cloud 9 and Newbee had a good month and improved to ranks six and seven respectively. The very talented Secret Team failed in the qualifiers of the Dreamleague and thus didn’t gather any more points. The team around Puppey and KuroKy stays at rank 21 which they share now with upcoming Team Tinker who gained 14 spots in the past month.

The new ones: LV Gaming, Team Immunity, Virtus.pro Polar

The highest steps this month have been taken by LV Gaming (+123) and Team Immunity (+119). The former won the National Electronic Sports Tournament 2014 ahead of LGD Gaming and Newbee, the latter was runner-up at MSI Beat IT 2014 where the australian team lost to Virtus.pro. The second team of VP, Virtus.pro Polar improved 23 ranks to rank 36. The surprising 4 Anchors + Sea Captain, sixth at ASUS ROG Dreamleague, gained 62 spots.

363 teams from 44 countries

The World Ranking consists of 363 teams from 44 countries this month. 10,133 tournament results are included in our database. If you want to learn more about how the World Ranking is calculated, check our calculations page.

i guess its because they still have yet to lose all the points they accumulated last year.

Oh man, this terrible site again. Rankings look even worse than they did when he first posted this thing.

How's the site traffic looking now?
