ESEA S30 POWER RANKINGS
WEEK 2 – RANKS DON’T MEAN ANYTHING

#1 THEORY OF KNOWLADGE [3-0] (meatball, phone, reflecto, faust, stock, fab)
Theory of Knowledge is being moved up into the top spot. Not only have they picked up possibly the best med in the division this season, but they have also only dropped a single round over 3 matches. This team should be able to ride the #1 spot all the way to semis before they really have any issues. Especially considering all of the interesting games that have been played out over the past week.

#2 OJAMA COUNTRY [3-0] (wish, perfection, crab_f, dev, lizar, toy)
After the fall of Team Now I am moving Ojama up into 2nd spot for this week. After a very close 5-4 against Excellent Adventures in weeks prior I feel like should be able to edge out Team Now as it sits currently. I am well aware that that the transitive property means shit all in TF2, but a close game against a team that led a 5-1 blowout is usually a pretty safe bet to take.

#3 EXCELLENT ADVENTIRES [4-1] (dippidy, nazara, dongus, hayes, mustard, pablo)
Staying at #3, but jumping ahead of Team Now this week is Excellent Adventures, after a 5-1 over Team Now on metal they have proved that they are very much a solid top team. Theory of Knowledge is really the only other team that they should have to prove themselves against, but I don’t see anyone overthrowing Theory currently and I expect this team to sit around #2/#3 for the rest of the season.

#4 TEAM NOW [3-1] (saam, esper, digi, froot, earthworker, lolguy)
Moving down to 4th overall currently is Team Now. I said at the start of the season that I was unsure if they would be able to maintain the top spot for long, but I did not expect them to get 5-1’d by dippidy and co. I think it is very possible that we will be seeing them fall even further down the rankings in the coming weeks depending on how the other teams start to shape up. I dont see them falling out of the top 6, but I don’t think they are as safe at the top as I originally thought.

#5 GOBLIN ZONE [2-1] (jetz, rain, grape juice, unicorn wizard, hedge, charis)
With other teams moving down this week the Goblins are moving into 5th position. I am really tentative about this ranking for them as they so far have really only “proved” themselves against a super questionable FAINT and I am unsure how much that actually counts for at this point in time. With a 5-0 blowout vs Theory and expected a 5-2 win over Blacksiders they have yet to really show they are able to hang in the top 5, but with all of the other changes this week I don’t really have any other place to put them.

#6 FAINT GAMING [2-3] (ninjax, link, june, crasian, exile, tino)
FAINT… What am I going to do with my own team? FAINT is still an absolute disaster by most accounts, with scrim and match results being all over the place and changing more frequently than a weeb and what show they are watching they are currently very hard to place. FAINT has been having very close scrims with some of the top 3 team in IM and the recent via game had every single round go into OT even though it was a 4-1 loss, but then we also go and lose 5-0 to Redemption Arc. FAINT will probably make playoffs but at this point in time it seems to be a really rough road to top 8.

#7 DUNK MASTERS [3-0] (legit, shiny, saila, jeff, makkabeus, XBS)
I am dropping the Dunk Masters down to 7th spot this week. It might be a little a little premature to do something this drastic, but as of yet they have only played the bottom IM teams and are dropping scrims to teams like FAINT. They should still be a playoff team, but where they actually end up is harder to peg down without them actually playing some of the higher ranked teams.

#8 REDEMPTION ARC [3-1] (cember, scratchh, shuckle, air, tasheem, virgil)
Redemption arc is also moving up the rankings this week. With a 5-0 against FAINT and a win against PWR they are showing that they are either a decent team, or that FAINT and PWR are just bad. I am probably giving my team too much credit at this point, but the match against FAINT was probably more of a FAINT loss than a Redemption win, but the PWR match holds more weight in my mind. Feel free to crucify me for this.

#9 PANCAKE-WAFFLE RIFLE [2-2] (x3noxide, animus, Change, fygg, bowl, Tomato tom)
With this team having good showing against The Totlings I am moving them up the rankings this week. I feel like they can possibly end up in playoffs by the end of the season but them dropping rounds to teams like Double Plus isn’t a great sign.

#10 THE TOTLINGS [1-1] (vaati, nate rivers, cody, megawac, morsca, rocket)
I am unsure what the 4-3 loss in OT to PWR actually means against this team. I said previously that PWR was another team with good players that should be able to really contend, but the loss could also mean that The Totlings are much weaker than I originally thought. Slotting them in at #10 this week, but I am not really confident with this team or ranking at this point in time.

#11 BD ENERGY [1-2] (raph, apt, SpaceCadet, aZn, jag, tsar)
Not much to say about this team currently with loses to both the Totlings and dunk masters I am not really thinking that they will actually be able to break into playoffs this season.

#12 RHDP [1-2] (ult, cinder, ed, playmo, peniferous, mu)
With 5-1 losses to both Ojama and FAINT this past week, this team seems to have many issues with it. #12 might be a little low for them currently, but I want to see them play some of the teams closer to them in the rankings before I move them too much.

#13 PORTLAND BLACKSIDERS [1-3] (chaseduck, syntax, botboy, screwb, azion, lorgon)
The team of 2-5 finishes it seems, This team will probably be the winners of the thunder dome at the bottom of IM but I cant say I have really been paying much attention to most of the teams down there.

#14 DOUBLEPLUSGOOD [0-3] (duke, lecrum, khil, prograde, arzt, osplo)
They might be 0-3, but they have been able to take rounds off of the teams they have been facing so there is some positives for the doubleplus squad. But with a loss to backsiders I don’t see them moving up in the ranks.

#15 MR FUNNY ALIEN ESPORTS (Formerly CLASSIC JELQUP) [0-4] (owib, zanda, jelq, el farmo, ipaka, tuba_god)
Still don’t know any of these players, but with only a single round taken in 4 matches so far I don’t think they will make it out of the bottom this season.

#16 ANOTHER DAY AT THE OFFICE [0-4] (aquila, drums, Jenkins, taiga, Lysol, sharkitect)
The other team that has only taken a single round in 4 games played. Not much else to say currently.

Goblin zone in 5th is more of all the other teams moving down then them actually moving up. But id actually extend that 5th-8th out to 5th - 10th and say they are all going to be really close this season.

1st-4th aren't set in stone either. Facing all of those teams, they all feel really beatable and will probably come down to what map is played and how individuals are feeling on that night. High IM is really even this season imo
