Yep, that's what I thought. So what is it? General "hype" and "popularity"? Doesn't make much sense, but I'll play by the rules :D. Skillwise it's clear to me that Flash is not a 9 at least...


Mostly math.

Thank goodness I don't put "because mostly math" in my research papers.
No but seriously, any details? At least the criteria? I don't really care how they're combined. ELO/Aligulac? Past Proleague results? Recent winrates? Recent top finishes? Because it really seems to me that it's "People like MarineKing, let's put him at 7, and people REALLY like Flash, so let's put him at 9".


I don't have the formula or I would have told you how it works, but I saw the spreadsheet and unless you can measure how popular a player to the exactness of 10 decimals that's not how it's calculated. It's not a coincidence that Flash is valued so highly after being one of the most valuable players two seasons in a row, though, so if I had to make an educated guess I'd say that has something to do with it.

Why? If your model is any good it should have good predictive power of the results for the season whether people know about it or not.

Because whether or not that's actually true it takes away part of the fun in FPL. You dont need to know the model to play and I dont think any fantasy league hands the information out freely because there are no real advantages to doing so

I think its harder than some, easier than others.

If making an anti-team is harder, it also means making a good main team is easier. Always a trade-off.

It's the best anti team, Stork is a player coach and had at best a 40% win ratio last time Taeja will be travelling and Seed won't be always fielded and will struggle with 40% win ratio or more seems like a good anti team.
Problem is RoRo has gone and he won't be train wrecking peoples FPL so more challengers

Well, I counted and IIRC top 19 of players in points all play in the first playday. The most expensive player that doesn't play is Taeja who is worth 5.

Who will win? Hush (Bong) or eMotion? It's so tempting to pick one of those players.
