Ranking Explanation

Points are calculated using the following formula:

The number of teams attending the tournament (up to 100 teams) X Diversity of Tournament Multiplier (below) X Elimination Success Multiplier (below) X your preliminary round win percentage = TOTAL POINTS EARNED FROM THE TOURNAMENT.

Diversity of Tournament Multiplier (DTM):
1-2 states: 1.0
3-5 states: 1.2
6-8 states: 1.4
9-12 states: 1.6
13-15 states: 1.8
16 or more states: 2.0

Elimination Success Multiplier (ESM):
Didn’t clear: 1
Clearing but not winning an elimination round: 1.1
Octas: 1.2 (winning at least one elimination round)
Quarters: 1.4 (winning at least one elimination round)
Semis: 1.6 (winning at least one elimination round)
Finals: 1.8 (winning at least one elimination round)
Winning Finals: 2.3

Every elimination round from octafinals on is worth a bonus after the number of participants in elimination rounds is less than or equal to half the number of entries. For example, a tournament with 15 entries doesn’t count for a bonus until semifinals. A tournament with 16 entries would count beginning with quarterfinals. A team must win an elimination round to get bonus points beyond clearing. For example, if a tournament breaks to semifinals and a team loses in semifinals the multiplier is 1.1.
