Did this recently change?

Valid ringers must meet these criteria:

1 The ringer is either rostered on a team or is a free agent in the SAME DIVISION as the team they will be playing the match in**.
2 The player has not rang for the team more than three times
3 The player is registered on the RGL website. They do not need to be paid for prior to the match, but the must become fully paid for within 24 hours. Failure to do so results in a forfeit of the match and also a major penalty against the team
4 The player is reasonably within the skill range of the person they’re ringing for
5 The other team has been informed through match comms who the ringer is with a link to their steam profile or RGL profile
6 Divs/Group might have specific skill restrictions. If they do, it'll be listed above the group/div in the league table or match page.

RGL Div. 2 Season 3 Power Rankings
Part 1 of 3
6/23/2020, 7:00 PM ET

Aside from the very top and very bottom of the division, it's really tough to rank the teams. I gave it my best shot given the existing match results, rosters, and a few hours of digging through scrim logs.

Tier List Overview:

Tier 1 (Title contenders):
1-512-PLUMPWENCH, MILKIES

Tier 2 (Clear playoff teams):
BEASTMODE, Straight Boys in Denial, HRTeam

Tier 3 (Average teams):
The Bradman Bunch, BLANC Esports, Soulja boi esports 2, tf2player.org, All Hockey Hair Team, Vanilla Dice Black, Cat Posse

Tier 4 (Non-playoff teams):
Troll Face Esports, ape masters Bosnia
_____

#1 1-512-PLUMPWENCH (8-0)
Scouts: Donald Dorito, Kenai
Soldiers: Seek, Manacute
Demo: Danny1
Medic: Hub

Not long ago, in a division not far away, PLUMPWENCH was by far the most inconsistent team in their division - possibly the most inconsistent team in the entire League, with literally half of their games being 1 round toss ups (sometimes to good teams, sometimes to not so good teams). This time around, things are different and Danny1's long-running PLUMPWENCH organization has kept it clean and dominated their competition so far, leaving them as the last team undefeated team in Division 2.

#2 MILKIES (6-2)
Scouts: Scarfs, BBC
Soldiers: Binky, JD
Demo: Gunna
Medic: Luddy

On one hand, they share a matching record with BEAST MODE and pretty clearly lost the head-to-head. On the other hand, they've generally been the more dominant team up until Snakewater week. There's a clear #1 favorite to show up on one end of the field in finals. As for their dance partner, I'm not as certain. So far though, MILKIES is my best guess as long as the rest of their season looks less like their Snakewater week and more like their first three weeks.

#3 BEASTMODE (6-2)
Scouts: Reika, Shim
Soldiers: DeltaMarket, Vanxi
Demo: Zbra
Medic: Patrick

Last season's Main runner-up has moved up following a strong season in which they only lost one game excluding their battles with the Demon Prince SIN K4RMA. Replacing their flank, they've merged with a few players from last season's Advanced participant ChampionsClub.GG (formerly Tiger Mafia). Despite a slow start, BEAST MODE has emerged as a strong contender to make semi-finals or even finals. They've shown they can take out top teams on the right day. At the same time, they've had slow days of their own.

#4 Straight Boys in Denial (5-3)
Scouts: Leasty, Zike
Soldiers: Space Ghost's Coffee, Caboose
Demo: Azion
Medic: Slice Rogue

They stumbled a little bit at the start, kicking off the season with a loss to The Bradman Bunch. Since then, they've righted the ship and taken care of business. They've lost to MILKIES and 1-512-PLUMPWENCH, but those losses were expected.

#5 HRTeam (6-2)
Scouts: Fenomemom, Magma
Soldiers: TAZ, Nimby
Demo: Zam Det
Medic: ???

With a 6-2 start, they're looking good in the standings right now. However, they've had a relatively light schedule so far and in both of their matchups versus the top talent in the division, they've been routed without too much resistance.

#6 The Bradman Bunch (4-4)
Scouts: Triiiple, Bffl
Soldiers: AmandaPanda45WOOT, Marty
Demo: RJ
Medic: Figsy

The Highlander Bunch has done well floating around the middle part of the division. The Bunch has been clearly outmatched by the top few teams and they've lost some winnable games, but they're on track for a solid season and have a fair chance to make playoffs depending on how many teams make the cut.

#7 BLANC Esports (3-5)
Scouts: Zanda, Jojo
Soldiers: Fleskore, Muse
Demo: Sleepy
Medic: Jery

The BLANC organization had it rough last season hanging out near the bottom of the division (correction from Tery: "Not NEAR the bottom, we were AT the bottom"). This time around, things are looking a little brighter considering they've almost already matched last season's win count. While true, they've lost five in a row now, they faced tough competition over this period and weren't completely outclassed in any of their losses. This week, things have cooled down a bit and they have a good chance to get back in the win column.

#8 Soulja boi esports 2 (3-5)
Scouts: Mono72, Snarken
Soldiers: Zia, [LFP]
Demo: Perenne
Medic: TJ

Mono72 and Ziaa have revived the Soulja Boi eSports brand previously seen in ESEA Season 31. A number of relatively inexperienced players fill out the rest of their ranks. They have a losing record right now, but they've shown promise with a near upset on BEAST MODE and some solid wins over lower ranked competition.

#9 tf2player.org (3-5)
Scouts: JS, Tibby
Soldiers: Squidamatron, Rita
Demo: Falkinghammer
Medic: Dank

After a rocky start, The Team Fortress 2 Player Organization has rebounded well with three wins over the last two weeks. In contrast to most of the chaos in the division, their results have been about as expected with clear losses to the top teams, even matches with the mid-tier teams, and commanding wins over the lower tier teams.

#10 All Hockey Hair Team:FLOWVID19 (2-5)
Scouts: Stochastic, ChaseDuck
Soldiers: June, Smitty
Demo: Glop
Medic: Tino_

They were a decent mid-advanced team last season. At first glance, their start hasn't been the hottest with a 2-5 record so far. Upon closer inspection, see that they could easily be a much better looking 4-3 right now if the wind blew a little different. They came just short of upsetting MILKIES in a 5-4 loss which would have been a nice feather in their cap.

#11 Vanilla Dice Black (3-5)
Scouts: Smiths, Cookie
Soldiers: Ash1497, Kartyac?
Demo: Procreative
Medic: Saga?

It's a little unclear what their intended starting roster is right now. Headed into Clearcut week, they're in an alright spot to make playoffs if they can field the right lineup, but will need to be wary to avoid the typical king of the hill upset magic as they really can't afford to lose any games they're favored in if they want to make the cut.

#12 Cat Posse (2-5)
Scouts: Shining Star, Yumyum
Soldiers: Toss, General Nicholas
Demo: Natalbee (banned)
Medic: Ben

With PLUMPWENCH now a relatively consistent team, perhaps Cat Posse has inherited their curse with 4 of their 7 games to date being heartpounding 5-4s. Surprisingly, the only one of those they won was against their supposedly toughest opponent, BEAST MODE. The Cat Posse has shown they can hang with the teams in the division, they just need to be a little better down the stretch to close things out.

#13 Troll Face Esports (2-6)
Scouts: Shuckle, Gibus?
Soldier: Animus?, Bowl$?
Engineer: Ult
Demo: Knockers
Medic: 780

By the skin of their teeth, they managed to avoid last place in the standings with a hard fought victory over the ape masters. Fortunately, they've already played most of the hardest teams. Their next two match-ups against Vanilla Dice Black and All Hockey Hair Team are winnable fights, especially considering Clearcut gives them an extra potential upset edge.

#14 ape masters Bosnia (1-5)
Scouts: Trux, Sean
Soldiers: Dave2, Slamborghini
Demo: Pizza_Fart
Medic: Panacea

Ironically, their only win is versus the now 6-2 BEASTMODE. However, the lineup that staked that win has been almost completely replaced according to the RGL player transaction history (only Slamborghini remains). They won't make playoffs barring the sudden death of half the division (to be fair, not an impossible circumstance), but with a little luck they might be able to take home another couple of wins by the end of the season.

Good luck on Clearcut this week. Thanks to Tery for helping me revise this.

Yeah, shining probably shouldn't be playing scout in this div but that probably wasn't the only reason you guys lost product. that team is 6-6 and product has a high chance for teams to upset so just take the L gracefully
