despite this, I think sOs should still show up for dreamhack as insurance

Realistically, unless Scarlett or DRG wins thier respective WCS region, the points from this Red Bull won't make a difference. In the case of cure, even if he wins both WCS KR and this tournament, he still won't make a difference since he'll only end up at 2800. If he wins both he'd need to also attend the last dreamhack and make a semi final to finish with 3175 points. Basically he'll need to do what Dear did last year.

Most likely sOs is the only one with something on the line from this tournament for going to blizzcon, but who knows... I think we've seen a ton of surprises already.

Yeah, sadly most of the big changes in the table are just wild speculations. The Aligulac predictions really paint the picture of what is believable. But we can believe!

The strangest thing anyway is the feeling that Scarlett is more likely to win WCS than DRG is.

For player's events I would like to see something more like this:


foreach tourny_player_is_in:
Out in RO32 and gets X wcs points. Blizzcon chances = Y
Out in RO16 and gets X wcs points. Blizzcon chances = Y
...
Wins and gets X wcs points. Blizzcon chances = Y


I think this is more clear than things like "player gets 1st or 2nd", where many times that ends up being a complicated average of his relative odds of 1st vs 2nd combined with the payoffs in terms of Blizzcon chances for each. Instead with this I see separate line items for 1st and 2nd. If 2nd is good enough and gets him to 100% already I can see that easily enough.

ETA:
If someone must get 1st and lower placements don't help, this will be a bit verbose but I think the simplicity makes up for it.

Desperate player:
Out in RO32..... chances 0%
Out in RO16..... chances 0%
Out in RO8..... chances 0%
Out in RO4..... chances 0%
Out in RO2..... chances 0%
Wins......... chances 75%

This sounds like the same thing as the "simple" filter, try typing it into the events search filter. I might make this the default or just weight them more heavily.

Ah yes nice. But I would like it sorted by tournament first and then by placement/points next.

the default sort is by the score of the event (how significant it thinks the event is) I think sorting by tournament then placing might be good, right now you can filter by the tournament name though

I weighted the "simple" events much more heavily, should be a little less intimidating now on the first few pages of events

He's at 6-7% now. Goes up to 100% if he wins and down to 0.15% if he doesn't win it all.

I'm on an old mobile so I can't check right now, but is that a percentage for if he finishes 2nd, or just if he doesn't finish 1st?

That's if he doesn't finish first, he's down to .15%. However, second place would be a lot higher since that includes finishing in ro16.

So this Red Bull event suddently gets more WCS points and WEC didn't? I'm happy for Scarlett and $o$ but I still think it's kind of unfair.

~ 10.62 % of the time
HerO gets 2nd in WCS AM S3 Premier
This would change HerO's Blizzcon chances
from ~ 6.28 % to ~ 2.12 %

~ 5.91 % of the time
HerO gets 1st in WCS AM S3 Premier
This would change HerO's Blizzcon chances
from ~ 6.28 % to ~ 100 %

~ 0.02 % of the time
HerO gets 1st in DreamHack Stockholm and
HerO gets 4th in WCS AM S3 Premier
This would change HerO's Blizzcon chances
from ~ 6.28 % to ~ 99.94 %

~ 0.01 % of the time
HerO gets 2nd in DreamHack Stockholm and

Snute went from ~ 69.66 % to ~ 69.91 % after the 2 GSL matches, Innovation's win and Solar's loss kind of cancelled each other out for Snute I guess.
