Season One, Race Event 36: 3 Hour Solo

"

Taking any category with level into it is basically wasted since experience is a far better indicator in most cases. Also average rank will correlate with sum of ranks so only one of them is needed. Come to think of it both are probably not saying anything average experience doesn't.

Yeah leaving in level was a mistake, I had used it once before to make it more "relatable" since I don't know how much experience correlates to what level off the top of my head.


The sum of ranks is for the top 20 only, intended to measure how the top tier players shake out using the classes to their fullest (at least theoretically). It also shows if a class is weak even in top tier play (as with the witch recently).

Average of ranks is more descriptive of the overall outcome of the class, and while it should line up somewhat to experience, I think having both gives a couple of ways to look at the data.

I've been considering writing a macro to pull the data over time and develop trends (particularly pre/post duelist and early in the season as people developed strategies)

You can see in the recent team race that the team dynamic "carries" the weaker classes very well. My (solo) 24th place witch effort in team would have been an 8th place effort in this race, for example.

Had only one hour to play, so I just leveled till 11. Got one more point, 3 in total.
