I don't know if everyone is aware but Shoryuken.com recently posted a ranking list on their site. Check it out:

Interesting. Do we know how they determined these scores ?

There are definitely some inaccuracies here regardless of their method. 16 bit is on the list twice and I'm pretty sure p2w has been to more than 1 major.

 

[EMPEROR_THEO]

LOL at 16Bit being ranked twice.

It would've been hilarious if they separately ranked Killer Frost version and Catwoman version of him.

 

[Billy Dha Kid]

Tyrant will be #1 in my eyes forever and ever

 

[Yoaks]

They have P2W mentioned twice and have Elitegoomba playing Superman lol.

 

[EMPEROR_THEO]

HOLD THE PHONE. WHY DID I GO DOWN 2 RANKS??

Guess lack of East Coast really did turn those wins into regionals. Fucking @Mr Aquaman

 

[HoneyBee]

lol at winter brawl being premier 12

 

[Smarrgasm]

Im so lost. Ranking systems never make sense.

 

[Laos_boy]

Lol @Kitana Prime you play zatanna?

 

[Dirtylova]

That looks about right.

 

[HomeLee1121]

Ive won a local, i would like them to put me on there too plz

Hey guys lets not crucify this, someone did the initial work at SRK and we should be happy that they took the time and effort for it. It would be better if we contributed to help correct any mistakes that they put in the list. I am actually surprised someone even cared about it that much.

I would personally rate PL, Wound, P2W and others higher than they were placed, I don't know the criteria for the rankings- hoping for some more information on that so we can help give the authors more information on how to fix the list.

TLDR: SOMEONE CARED ENOUGH TO MAKE A LIST OVER AT SRK LETS NOT SUCK AND BITCH ABOUT IT LIKE WE USUALLY DO.

 

[HoneyBee]

I've been looking through the list and there's a lot of things that should be changed as far as tournament weights go...

Winter Brawl:
Currently premier 12
Should be moved to premier 5

Apex:
Currently mandatory premier
Should be moved to premier 12

Texas Showdown:
Currently mandatory premier
Should be moved to premier 5

Final Round:
Currently Premier 5
Should be moved to mandatory premier

 

[Smarrgasm]

according to this top 8 at TX showdown and SCR is better than FR‏

wut...

Also a lot of top 16s are not counted but UFGT's is.

 

[AK Black Preon]

Does P2W have... 2 spots?

same shit can be said about the injustice tier list but after a few days it became reasonable. I think that'll be the case with this too if they tweak a few things

 

[BlackViper415]

I've always found these kinds of lists to be silly. There's such a miniscule difference between the skill levels of most of these people that it doesn't really matter.

 

[SkaGoogle]

Revolver, PL, Woundcowboy, 16bit, tyrant are the top 5 players in this game in my eyes

Or you could actually offer constructive criticism like other folks in the thread have.

 

[Smarrgasm]

I mean it has some flaws that are easily seen like the multiple player listed and wrong mains. The other stuff is semantics which I personally will probably not be able to change their minds on. From the inside of the community looking out it just seems poorly put together. That was just my observation.

 

[HomeLee1121]

yeah b/c your comment was pretty constructive to the list. Also theres only been 2 people that have actually offered criticism. Everyone else has either said something about a player mentioned twice or talking about who is top in their opinions lol

 

[Juffalo]

So what happened to our intense week of ranking system discussion ? (Pig and PLs threads)

Someone at SRK has a system in place. Someone should reach out to them and help them get their tournament rankings in a row and maybe this will look a little better.

At the very least this is entertaining and should give PL something else to tweet about.
