Me and Scar should be higher in the power rankings.

Using this logic, Johnny 6 Feet and Elfo should be #1 and #2, both with 1-0 records and a 100% winning percentage...

And Bodey's the Champ... Respect the belt, Clut.

I see looking at the rankings thread that nearly everyone in the league has taken at least one loss. Which shows how tight the competition is and why the title keeps changing hands.

I forget exactly how you would do a ranking system in this format. Is it most wins (excepting the champ) at the top and then descending by the number of losses? Like 5-2, 5-3, 4-1, 4-3, 3-1 etc?

But hey, if Inno wants to put me and Elfo in a completely unjustified position at the top... well... I'd think he'd lost the plot tbh.

No, you misunderstood me, everyone in the current power rankings now has 5 battles minimum, right?

So what you do is divide the number of wins by their total number of matches.

You then have their winning percentages which gives you a mathematical win percentage for everyones individual power rankings.

By using the minimum of 5 battles, which everyone in the current power ranking has, this eradicates the likes of Johnny and Elfo’s records which aren’t applicable yet.
