Standard LR rules apply: No balance whining, no KeSPA vs. GomTV inciting, no excessive derailing ESPECIALLY when games are on. This is not a thread for you to argue with other people. | ||

I used an average between general Elo and matchup-specific Elo as an "actual" Elo used for the probabilities. I can think of several other ways to do this, but it's not clear at all which is best. | ||

I have no idea why GSL needs each season to be done so quickly. No hype at all when a season starts so frequently and ends so quickly. | ||

No hype at all when a season starts so frequently and ends so quickly. I believe they actually have a pretty packed schedule for the rest of the year. I recall someone mentioning it when this season had started so quick after season 3. | ||

Whether the games come from Bo5s or Bo3s or are standalone doesn't matter, they're weighted equally. In Rain's case, that's 60 games. Ok you did your maths this way. I don't think you can quite give the same value to games in a BO1 or BO3 series than games from a BO5/BO7 serie in those statistics. You basically give the same weight to games that are played in completely different situation. And yet again you need to mention the size of the sample, because except if you took only Mvp's 60 last games, you compare 316 games played over almost two years to the 60 games of Rain, that doesn't seem really meaningful to me. | ||

Well, uh, the sample size isn't that relevant. Elo ratings adjust pretty quickly, old games don't have much of an impact. As much as I would like to try to weigh different games differently, (a) it's not clear how to do it, and (b) I don't have the data anyway, and (c) Elo ratings have worked well like they are for several decades, let's not fix things that aren't broken. | ||

Even though my beloved Hero has been eliminated, I'm still so hyped for this. Rooting for MVP to take his 5th championship and stopping the unstoppable force that is Rain. | ||

They said the same thing about everyone before him. Mvp is going to crush this. | ||

I'm sorry, I misunderstood the way you used the TLPD to calculate those numbers. But still, Mvp usually ignores Elo ratings as we've seen in GSL S2. | ||

if he does manage to find said approach, it then turns on whether rain can adjust fast enough. if he does not, he might lose the series and perhaps even by more than 2 games. however, if he does adjust, he will win. | ||

I'll just skulkfully watch the scene untill rain falls into obscurity and MVP still gets GSL code S round of 16 in his slumps like I did with Bomber and MMA. rain has been learning between the happy games and what he is now. he lost to curious badly in WCS then stomped him a few weeks later. | ||
