Damn you are fast, edited ^^
Also on the note, it's all about how good each player is in each match up. Hell just look how Bomber destroyed Taeja / Jjakji vs MKP. Not much difference in that and Leenock vs Babyknight / Innovation vs Huk.

You seem not to understand clearly. TheBB explained the system there : http://aligulac.com/faq/
It's not that we use WoL results to predict HotS but rather that there hasn't been enough games played per player on HotS for the current ranking to be accurate enough. Furthermore, in the case of Last as a KeSPA player he doesn't have enough games to have reached his HotS rating especially considering he is doing very poorly in ProLeague which undermine his rating.
Edit : And by accurate enough, I mean accurate enough to prevent criticism such as the one above.

Well, Life is still likely to win in those stats. But 87% really sounds awfully little for how much better he is than everybody else in the world.

this is the most monstrous ro8 we've seen in a long time, even including gsl tourneys. just look at that lineup
|
Sucks that all but one of the KeSPA players are on the same side of the bracket. I guess the finals will be another one-sided roflstomp with Flash/Rain/Bogus/Parting eliminating each other early 
I mean I just don't see the likes of Life or MC getting past Flash or Bogus.

Yes we are a bit behind schedule implementing the automatic stream-watcher and twitch-chat-reader system that will allow us to give points to hyped players. Hopefully when it's done the ratings will tell everyone what they already know so that we have achieved total uselessness.
I'm also excited about the upcoming reddit witchhunt analysis tool that will automatically dump the rating of a player who is caught doing anything slightly controversial.

No, I missed the two ESF vs Kespa matches, Rain vs Jjakji Innovation vs Leenock. So the best Kespa Protoss can beat a Code B Terran and the best Kespa Terran beat Leenock. At least one of them was to be expected and the other one: yeah Leenock is quite good, so 3-0 is impressive. But you're going quite overboard if you word it like you did.

Innovation 2%?
This is completely useless. Statistical methods are supposed to help when quantifying stuff is to complicated to do subjectively. If you can't improve the methodology, aligulac is just a waste of time. Based on what? I agree that innovation is underrated in this, but we can't just magically up his rating. It will rise as his results improves. He loses to too many randoms in SPL. Plus we are still waiting for points to "transfer" to kespa players, but since they are very isolated (most only play proleague) it takes time. Please untwist your panties and chill, nobody forces anyone to use it. And no that is not what statistical methods are used for, plus this is "raw" stats, the interpretation is up to you, plus I already stated that currently the system is very shaky (due to the change from WoL to HotS). Plus this Terran surge is based a lot on HotS, of which we have very few matches. In regards to Last, please tell me which historical data that indicates that he is a beast of another world: http://aligulac.com/players/137-Last/results/ Don't publish ratings untill you improve this methodology. LIke what is the point of publishing heavily flawed statistics? This just making aligulac looks foolish, which is unfortunate. We have discussed this, if we should just "shut down" for 6 months untill we have more data, but then again, HotS is just a big patch to the game. When is it okay to publish ratings then? How much data is enough? How should we account for players we "know" are really good but haven't proven it (lots of Kespa players falls in this category)? What if they actually aren't and peoples bias shines through. Say what you will about the method, it is really strong in predicting matches, but strength lies in numbers, not in single brackets. But that being said, we are always trying to improve. Your percentage calculation is really messed up. Last doesn't have a 89% chance to lose the next Bo5. Even if he is a huge underdog. Also, I don't really care who wins and who loses. I just would prefer for both the semis and the finals to be non-mirrors. Please remember this is based mostly on WoL results still. Would you favor last over life in WoL ? (2035) Life 0-0 Last (1466) ------------------------------------- 38.81% 3-0 0-3 1.98% 31.50% 3-1 1-3 4.33% 17.05% 3-2 2-3 6.32% ------------------------------------- 87.36% 12.64%
Median outcome: Life 3-1 Last Estimated by Aligulac. Modify. why use wings of liberty results to judge a HotS tournament? I don't think jinro is the best foreigner just because he got to the ro4 a few years ago. I think this has been answered; a bunch of times each time someone posts an Aligulac prediction. Yeah basically everytime someone posts this people go: "Oh my god your stats suck. I cant believe <favouriteplayerxyz> isn't #1. Did your system not watch him play last round? LOL thank you for this. Yes we are a bit behind schedule implementing the automatic stream-watcher and twitch-chat-reader system that will allow us to give points to hyped players. Hopefully when it's done the ratings will tell everyone what they already know so that we have achieved total uselessness. I'm also excited about the upcoming reddit witchhunt analysis tool that will automatically dump the rating of a player who is caught doing anything slightly controversial.
Foreigners are vastly over-rated on your list because they don't play enough top Koreans. Sen, Lucifron, and forGG (living in EU) especially.
