YerAnd comes off a win against FalconHit as was expected coming into the season. As it turns out, taking an “expected” win is all that he needed this week to raise a (half) spot from the community predictions. Pwndnoob had a rough week, ending his set against Magician1099 with a draw. While this isn’t an awful result, it’s not the win that one would expect from the incredibly dominant champion of SCL5 Platinum, and it’s enough to push him under YerAnd from the tie in community predictions. Magician’s draw against Pwndnoob wasn’t the prettiest thing in the world, but it did net Mr. Ian a point against an opponent that seemed to be a fair favorite to shut down points for other players. While this isn’t enough to push him outright above Pwndnoob in the rankings, it does give him a boost in this week 1 chart.įalconHit drops a spot less on the fact that they lost, which was somewhat expected, but on Magician’s impressive draw against Pwndnoob. Plenty of room for FalconHit to make their mark on the division yet still, but he suffers a one placement slip in week 1.

Slappy’s loss against Track was not unexpected.

The main thing to recommend Slappy is the scoreline, which showed 4 wins out of the 11 games despite not managing a single spy win that’s a fairly solid sniper against Track’s spy, which went on a tear at the end of last season earning him an above 50% spy winrate in a division with Kraz圜aley. However, this alone is not enough to push him up in the rankings, and so he sits in 6th for the time being.Īuthor’s Hot Take: This Platinum division is the toughest division SCL has ever seen. Only slightly affected by the fact that the author is in this division. It was one game away from every single Week 1 match going to a draw basically, the difference between 1st and 6th in this division is absurdly tiny). The only player to come out of Week 1 with two points under their belt, OpiWrites played a shutout sniper set against Pofke, who was predicted to be a slight favorite in the matchup. While it was just as close as expected, ending 7-5, it went to Opi, who establishes himself (for now) at the top of the division. Remember how I said there was only one non-draw game in Platinum? This is where that gets interesting. Yeesh dominated SCL5 Gold, dropping only a handful of games and representing a sniper winrate of 90%.
