They don't seem to go bellow five, at least for the judgment based stats.

hero pulled two of the biggest surprise of the season, the first one winning 2-0 at -18 against the usually very reliable (Z)

Solar and herO splinting 1-1 against the best player in the league (T)

Maru. It was however sadly meaningless in both cases.

Changes

Unsurprisingly with the shorten off-week there was little changes outside of the automatic bar stats, but I'll take a second to congratulate YB/ (P)

I know, I know, I've missed a week.
I'm sure you are living in deep despair, robbed of the steady reference points that only an overly precise Starcraft 2 grading system can provide. But fear no more because, like DeGaulle before me; I have heard you.

Anyway here's the main take of the week 8 hexagons, week 9 coming soon (tm)

Biggest upset:

It was almost a perfect week for the SCBoy analyst, neither (P)

MaxPax and (P)

Harstem getting 1-1 split at -8 nor (T)

GuMiho scoring a 2-0 at -6 made them look particularly bad, but that was all blown away in the very last map of the week as (P)

Gerald got a map vs (Z)

Dark at -24, giving his team the win, in maybe the most important result of the season for Psistorm.

Changes

Biggest winner: Two protoss got the nod, (P)

Classic +4 (+1 winning percentage, +1 attack, +1 defense, +1 micro) and (P)

Harstem +4 (+1 winning percentage, +1 mindset, +1 attack, +1 micro)

Biggest loser: In one of the algorithm moment of brilliance, it flair the possibility of an upset of the usually ultra reliable Kz_ (Z)

Solar who is even considered to be on an upward potential, they reduced his score by 5 points (-3 condition, -1 stability, -1 defense) saving themselves from a 10 point 0-2 upset, as Solar lost to (Z)

RagnaroK.

Some things just happen in life, like the algorithm predicting an upset correctly

Also on a side note, Maxpax went 2-0 over Zest

I think it's:
50-60= C
60-70= B
70-80=A
80-90=S
90-100= S+

Upsets of the week
With the playoff race tightening every upset threatened to end a teams season, and the SCBoy staff can be critical of almost each of the teams battling for the last spots. On the Psi side, (P)

MaxPax could convert on a small but still noticeable +6 advantage, dropping a map to (Z)

Vanya, but that wouldn't have cost them to much, until (P)

Nice managed to score a 2-1 (1-1 + an ace win) against (T)

SpeCial at -9, perhaps destroying the American team playoff hope in the process. Psi destined were still somewhat kept alive by an even bigger series of upset in the IG vs TL, (T)

Coffee scoring a 2-0 at -12 points vs (P)

Harstem and (T)

XY getting a map off (T)

uThermal at -18.
Also notable, (P)

Prince getting a 1-1 vs (P)

Classic despite being down 10 point, as the GP Protoss, one of the worst ranked player in the league, continued to build his argument for an outside MVP choice were his team to sneak into the playoff next week.

Biggest winner: (P)

Zest +4 overall points (+4 condition, +1 stability, -1 strategy)

bunny is actually at -4; he was at 68 in the week you missed :c (so basically he lost 2 after nv vs dpg to go from 70 to 68)
i dug up the old vod and he lost 1 in macro, 1 in stability, and 2 in condition in the -4. unfortunately, i am too lazy to keep on digging for the nv vs dpg vod to figure out what else he lost, but i am leaving the screenshot of week 8 bunny as a loose end

Upsets of the week

There was only one real upset this week, and it's one that was a long time coming, after spectacular implosion times and times from ByuL, he finally carried through all game long and manage to 2-0 ByuN at -16 point.

Changes

Biggest winner: (T)

XY: +6 overall points (+1 macro, +1 strategy, +1 defense, +1 micro, +2 form point) did the cold metallic circuit of the SCboy mega-computer developed some kind of feeling? Hard to know for sure, but XY getting bumped after his first win after 18 straight loses feels like an well earned reward and a good indication that his 10 score in mentality was right all along

End of the year Hexagons recap

Least valuable player: (Z)

Rogue -93 points

We will never know who Rogue really is. We’ll never quite know what we’re supposed to call him.

The least reliable person in the room?

The worst player in the world?

A con-artist that fake his way on the DPG roaster?

There is one option that fits better than the rest.

It’s "Cham's bitch".

Jokes aside the players with the worst differential are obviously the most high ranking player, behind Rogue come (Z)

Dark at -91, still particularly bad and explaining the (relative) disappointment of DPG, (T)

Maru at -71 and (T)

Clem at -65. But the Hexagons also reveal some very disappointing results from players that would be hard to see at first sight.

(T)

SpeCial 7-13 record could be seen as perfectly reasonable, from the algorithm judgement make it one of the worst under performance in the league, with a -52 ratio and not a single win against adversaries with more points. In a season where PSI missed the playoff by the skins of their teeth it's a bad look for the generally quite solid Mexican terran.

(P)

Trap had back to back loses against (P)

MaxPax and (Z)

Lambo that could lead people to see him as having a disappointing season, but in fact his -35 ratio compared quite well with player from his range point having a good number of upset himself and on the opposite (T)

ByuN (-45) and especially (Z)

Solar (-64) didn't actually lived close to their potential.

Most valuable player: The entire GP team +199 points ( (Z)

Cham +87;

Prince +80, (T)

Percival +31; (T)

Ryung +11)

GP has broken the hexagons algorithm and left it in shamble, Cham and Prince are the two player with the best differential, the biggest upset Ryung has allowed was -1. It was an immense team effort all season long and one of the best underdog performance from a ragtag group of players forgotten to everyone.
But, you want to know the most depressing stats of all time? At the end of the day, GP would have need exactly +200 points to make the playoffs, Ryung losing to Harstem with a +1 advantage, so close yet so far.

There were other great performances, (P)

Has (+67) and (T)

Coffee (+53) did great work for their teams despite an utter lack of help from the rest of their team.
However if there was a single player that overperformed under the radar, it would be Afreeca Freecs (Z)

Armani (+50), even if the last map of the season broke his streak with a small -2 upset to Coffee, he has done amazing work weeks in and weeks out, he only has 1 big upset (2-0 vs Cure), but all the rest come from stealing a maps he shouldn't win here and there and was an integral part of AF making it to the playoff.

Other honorable mention are: (Z)

ByuL (+43), (P)

Nice (+30) and (P)

Zoun (+29).

Alright, that's it for me, see you all in 2022 for the next season of the WTL!
