Leaderboard

I dont think it has to be too complicated, Main point is that each group get 5 teams from this top 20 Instead of maybe 10 or 15 of these teams together... If you want to categorize anyway, it´s easy just to draw top 4 in separate groups and 5 to 8 in separate groups, 9 to 12 and so on... Just choose EASHL ranking as our seeding rank, I myself would prefer 6vs6 since that´s what we are playing for... then everyone know in the future that if you want to be seeded move up the eashl ranking. If theres is 1 or 2 really good teams that havent played enough to be seeded, It doesnt matter as they wont mess up the groups anyway, and still get their spot. You can draw a parallell to soccer championships where you have to move up the UEFA coefficent to be seeded, and seeds have a big factor to the standard of a tournament, but still it doesnt mean that lower seeded teams are worse or cant win, it´s just balanced groups.

Yup, I agree. Seeding the top 20 separately, in order to cause them to spread evenly 5 per group should be even enough. I suggest we use the TOP 20 (6vs6) ALL-TIME-list that @gzell60 posted.

We should just randomize them at this point, it's hard to split 20 teams up into 4 groups and still make sure they are all even. Literally any of those teams can beat each other.

I think we should go for @gzell60 "Top 20 results (all games)".

I tried to take a more analytical approach like @tokFan earlier and took screenshots of the OVERALL 6vs6 LEADERBOARDS as of December 2nd, 4:17 p.m. GMT +1. I created an Excel sheet with 38 teams which are in the Top 100 EA leaderboards and registered for this tournament. What I did then was create a Points per game average for all of these teams. I attached the file below. Top 20 results (only >100 games played): Top 20 results (all games): Not sure if we should count teams with ~40 or ~60 games due to easier opponents in lower divisions, but that's up to @Kenu I guess. Let me know what you think about this! 6vs6 overall 021215.xlsx

This, completely agreement from here for this.

Yeah I missed don't hehe. I don't care if my team get a tough group. I think it's for the leagues best to have an exiting playoff. I don't think anyone wants semifinals or maybe even a final ending up with double digits. That is what's gonna happen if some groups are too easy.

I seriously dont give a shit, everybody can beat everybody. Do as u like
