Team ranking: August 2011

12-9-2011 19:15

HLTV.org is proud to present to you a feature that has been missing in the scene for far too long - Team ranking. In the first edition we will present to you the ranking from the end of August.

Team rankings haven't been taken seriously in the scene for several years now, so we finally decided to put a stop to that. In order to make the feature as credible as possible, many factors need to be considered, so for this job HLTV.org brought in Etienne "reakq" J. who has been working on such very detailed ranking for several months, making his name by displaying his work in our blog section.

The purpose of this ranking will be to, as objectively as possible, rank the teams based on their results and achievements in international tournaments. It's purpose is not to claim that Team A is better than Team B, but to help everyone keep track of the form of top teams and their overall success.

First of all, with this being a new feature, I will explain how it was made.

Initially, each event is given a level from 1-9 based on the following three factors: how well known the event is, the variety of countries represented and the number of top teams in attendance.

Points for each team in each event are then calculated, where a team can win or lose points based on the following factors:

team's final placing at the event
winning or drawing a match
bonus points for defeating a higher ranked opponent (inversely, the higher ranked team will lose points)
bonus points for round difference

All of these factors give a different amount of points based on the level of the event. For example, getting a top3 placing at IEM5 European Finals brings more points than the same placing at ICSC 8.

Finally, there is a depreciation system in place, which considers the fact how old an event is, decreasing the amount of points distrubuted from previous events as time passes. For example, points gained during IEM5 World Championship in February are in August worth 68% of their initial value. Also, an inactive team will see its place decrease after losing points month after month.

Events in August

The ranking includes events dating back from the very beginning of the year, but let's see which August events caused the latest changes.

The new IEM system gave us qualifications for the first Global Challenge in Guangzhou. Temporary secured the American spot by defeating Backfire (although it turns out they won't attend the Chinese event), while Fnatic, Anexis (then known as TCM-Gaming) and mousesports took the Europeans spots.

IEM6 GC Guangzhou final qualifer
fnatic	mousesports
Anexis	Temporary

Without a doubt, the biggest LAN event of the month was e-Stars Seoul 2011 where SK's invincibility was ended by Frag eXecutors. ASUS Summer 2011 was another notable LAN tournament, although less influential.

e-Stars Seoul 2011		ASUS Summer 2011
1st	Frag eXecutors	1st	Frag eXecutors
2nd	SK Gaming	2nd	DTS
3rd	Natus Vincere	3rd/4th	Lions
4th	mTw	3rd/4th	Natus Vincere

After these events, is SK still at the first place? Did Frag eXecutors make up the gap with Na´Vi and SK? What will be mousesports' & WinFakt's place after their e-Stars performances? Are ESC Gaming, M5 and Anexis affected by not attending e-Stars?

The Top 10

Let's take a closer look at the current top 10 teams and what affected their place on the list.

10. WinFakt

WinFakt boot Lions out of the top 10 and take their 10th place. Even though the Finnish team wasn't able to reach the final step for the Guangzhou GC, they made a very respectable top 6 at e-Stars.

Top matches:	WinFakt	16-9	fnatic
	WinFakt	16-5	project_kr
	WinFakt	16-8	eSahara

Results:	5-6th at e-Stars

9. mousesports

After qualifying for the IEM6 GC Guangzhou and a top 6 at the e-Stars, mousesports make a really strong comeback with the best increase of the month (+10 places).

Top matches:	mousesports	16-13	WinFakt
	mousesports	16-8	WinFakt
	mousesports	16-11	Lions

Results:	qualified for IEM6 GC Guangzhou
	5-6th at e-Stars

8. Anexis

Despite of not attending e-Stars, Anexis keep their 8th place thanks to their qualification for the Guangzhou Global Challenge, although mousesports & WinFakt are now very close to the Danish team.

Top matches:	Anexis	16-12	WinFakt
	Anexis	16-7	Lions

Results:	qualified for IEM6 GC Guangzhou

7. Moscow Five

Even though M5 was inactive during the month, they keep their 7th place despite losing some points.

6. ESC Gaming

Just like M5, ESC was inactive but stays at their 6th place.

5. fnatic

Since their victory at the IEM5 European Finals, fnatic seem to have difficulties to climb on the top of big events. The Swedish powerhouse stays at the 5th place, despite in August only winning their ticket for the Guangzhou Global Challenge and finishing at for them disappointing 7-8th place at e-Stars.

Top matches:	fnatic	21-19	Anexis
	fnatic	16-6	x6tence
	fnatic	16-14	Soltec

Results:	7-8th at e-Stars
	qualified for IEM6 GC Guangzhou

4. mTw

4th at the e-Stars, mTw has not been able to reach the podium contrary to usual. There is now a real gap between the Danish team and the current top 3.

Top matches:	mTw	16-6	mousesports
	mTw	16-12	project_kr

Results:	4th at e-Stars

3. Natus Vincere

The first indisputable team of the top3 is Na´Vi. As SK and Fx are currently winning almost everything, Na´Vi is lurking from behind after a 3rd place at e-Stars and a top4 at ASUS Summer.

Top matches:	Na´Vi	22-18	mTw
	Na´Vi	16-3	WinFakt
	Na´Vi	16-12	mousesports

Results:	3rd at e-Stars
	3rd/4th at ASUS Summer

2. Frag eXecutors

Frag eXecutors have made a strong comeback after missing major events DH Summer and GameGune. As the Polish team has won both e-Stars and ASUS Summer, they are the team of the month and those achievements put them at the 2nd place, very close to the top spot.

Top matches:	Frag eXecutors	16-9	SK
	Frag eXecutors	16-8	Na´Vi
	Frag eXecutors	2-0	DTS

Results:	1st at e-Stars
	1st at ASUS Summer

1. SK gaming

Despite their defeat against Fx in the e-Stars final, SK keep their 1st place in the ranking, mainly thanks to their 3 successive victories at DreamHack Summer, ICSC8 and GameGune.

Top matches:	SK	16-8	mTw
	SK	16-9	Na´Vi
	SK	16-10	fnatic

Results:	2nd at e-Stars

2011-09-13 12:50

whatever....I respect your opinion, but I know what I mean, they are better than any team I've ever seen. I'm not putting down the other teams, but this is my opinion ! is only sad that they are not engaging in counter-strike like last year, if they were, they would score twice in the sk (yn)

I suggest you seek a doctor SK has (can't argue with this) the best lineup in the whole world but fX is the.. hmm how could I say, they are just GREAT on decisive matches and stuff and they are natural WINNERS, they will always be "Titans". aside that.. I like Navi and all but I believe mTw is the 3rd, they can win against SK and fX

but FX now lose to M5 ,and the chance to New York,they are not stable.Not like SK . NOly top 4 have the ability to beat them in LAN

2011-09-13 03:27

Ok, SK will win every small/med lan, but Can you count how many times Golden5 won eswc/wcg ? The most important lans. But ye, they are not stable in a year, they are stable for like 5 years winning most major events e0t

2011-09-13 12:51

SK are new ..

2011-09-13 13:16

so how ffs he can says that SK is the best, like NaVi, they won everything in 2010 , everyone NAVI THE BEST IN THE WORLD, now they arent so how u can judge someone for little time space ? "they are not stable.Not like SK " Sry, it isnt swedish dreamteam which in 2012 wont be exist, EOT

Fair ranking IMO Well done.

SK's team played very well this year. deserved.

deserverd? rather not. *IEM5 European Championship Finals, Group Stage: Frag eXecutors (16) vs SK Gaming (13) *IEM5 World Championship, Semi-finals: Frag eXecutors (2) vs SK Gaming (1) *Xperia PLAY 2011, Final: Frag eXecutors (2) vs SK Gaming (0) *e-Stars Seoul 2011, Upper bracket: Frag eXecutors (16) vs SK Gaming (9) *e-Stars Seoul 2011, Final: Frag eXecutors (2*) vs SK Gaming (1) FX is unbeatable for SK but yeah, they won LANs where FX can't attend. GG for them. Ahh, I almost forgot, FX lose vs M5 inet match, they are unstable, it's not important that on every LAN they was minimum top3 in this year...

2011-09-13 21:16

typical polish fanboy.

2011-09-13 23:03

Said guy with <3 forest in nickname, yeah... maybe i'm a fanboy, but it not change anything. This year FX>SK

2011-09-14 07:43

i think you forget the 3 or 4 wins SK against Fx in a row when delpan joins SK :) How about that here they finished draw --> hltv.org/?pageid=28&&offset=0&a.. hltv.org/?pageid=28&&offset=25&.. hltv.org/?pageid=28&&offset=25&.. hltv.org/?pageid=28&&offset=25&.. so dont write bullshits like for Sk Fx are unbeatable and that make you blind polish fanboy

2011-09-13 01:20

2011-09-12 23:22

Are we sure about FG? I need proof to remove it. Otherwise, all their points would be lost for nothing :(

2011-09-13 00:28

Dont have proof just heard it from others :D

2011-09-13 00:35

So you shouldn't trust in the 'others', saw they training few days ago, they just got problem with their visa to IEM6. about ex-Pain i don't know tbh..

2011-09-12 21:37

a hypothetical situation means literally nothing.

2011-09-13 06:59

Pretty dumb comment. This is referring to the flaws of statistics, which is completely appropriate.

2011-09-13 14:45

Saying a team would have won an event if they attended is stupid. Maybe you saw his edited comment only, but thats what he said before.

2011-09-13 20:31

Fair enough, IF he specifically talked about winning (rather than attending) then it was a rather useless comment.

2011-09-13 20:44

where are you know stupid russian fanboys?

2011-09-12 19:44

little fail? not! big fail :(

2011-09-12 19:56

I agree on the list

amazing :)

2011-09-12 19:45

sad Lions. I hope soon they get back to the top10

Temporary would rape the fock out of some teams like HEADSHOTBG, x6, Soltec, Delta, etc

mm but if they keep not attending any tours they will not be in that list, BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

2011-09-12 19:47

And then you woke up

2011-09-12 23:06

8 replies

lol? temporary has wayyyy more skill than a good amount of the teams in top25... they definitely could beat a good amount of those teams. they are at least even in skill (if not better) and would could have extrmely close matches (if not winning) with dts, firegamers, kerchnet, esahara, virtus, pain... and would almost definitely beat x6, soltec, project_kr, delta, umx, and hsbg.

2011-09-13 07:08

"ok"

nice response.

2011-09-13 20:32

Haha.. I could sit here and write a paper on how low you americans really are on cs. But since nine out of ten Americans are big headed retards. I don't feel like wasting my time arguing with any of you.

2011-09-13 22:42

so you are a bigot too? nice. sad that in 2011 people still label others because of where they are from.

2011-09-14 03:44

Yes... But that's the harsh reality

2011-09-14 10:24

They got a french, Xp3 so maybe he's right ^^

2011-09-14 13:00

sin~ #303 a hypothetical situation means literally nothing. 2011-09-13 06:59:51

2011-10-06 04:17

FX GO TO top1 this year

in my opinion m5 should be 5 hope that hsbg will go up and up gl

this great work, don't understand how mTw can be that far behind and that close to fnatic but what the hell, it can't be more objective than that :)

2011-09-12 19:48

A consistent list of 2nd and 3rd places don't help much hahahaha :P Regardless of how well they play against top teams.

2011-09-12 22:27

true, but thought it would gather more points :)

2011-09-12 23:00

So did I >.<

2011-09-13 02:43

mTw has missed some recent events like GG'11 and ICSC8. Also, the team really needs to win a major event this year, that's their main problem :(

2011-09-13 13:24

might be right, the missing of a major championship :)

2011-09-13 16:36

Nice job, interesting to see :)

yeah gogogo mouz <3

Great job done so far : )

Sad for Americans and Asians who attend less tournaments and may be ranked better otherwise, but nice job anyway, kinda accurate ^^

2011-09-12 19:51

sk/fx/navi wont lose their place to other teams, even mTw cant handle them couse they got twice points more ;p

funny ranking

why funny? because fx is not top1? :) IN THIS YEAR sk is still better than fx

read title of article ?

yea but we talking about general ranking read the article better

2011-09-13 09:46

nope.

i said THIS YEAR, STILL.. not ATM, now maybe fx can beat sk but in overall ranking sk is STILL little higher than fx ;)

2011-09-12 23:59

hey troll, you've got some quite clear statistics up there proving that SK>fx 2011, problem?

oh boy, here we go....

nice hsbg !

Nice job there m8 ;)

FG :)

This rank its good but might not be truth at all Why? Because some good teams might miss good events because of funding. What if a team with low funding goes to WCG and ESWC only during the year, and then manage to win them both with 16-5 MAX results against navi, fx, sk, mtw and all. Meaning they're for sure the best team out there, but with low ammounts of points because of low funding. Im exaggerating yeah but FX would be top1 if they didnt miss those events EDIT: just like DTS, events they attend with navi as oponent, Event they manage to win.. or at least beat NAVI

2011-09-12 20:04

so, How would you do it? ont: Great job reaq, loved it

2011-09-12 20:12

Have no Idea, I come up with thoughts I cant make :p

2011-09-12 20:31

There's no other way to compare "who is the best team". This system couldn't be fairer.

Yeah the word TOP is tricky, ranking/placings fits better

2011-09-12 20:49

imageshack.us/photo/my-images/691/asdkue.. sure

2011-09-12 21:49

I dont understand your photo my friend

2011-09-13 01:53

You said that if FX attended to the events they missed they would be top1 pretty sure :) They only had a lucky tournament and then, all of a sudden, are the best in the world. LOL

2011-09-13 03:52

love the graph! lol!

Great job reakq =)

thanks dude ;)

2011-09-12 20:17

3rd/4th at Xperia 4th at DH 2nd at gamegune Their only bad event was ICSC, because of the lack of practise before the event. kalle was on vacation. That's why. ;)

IEM5 Europe - FX - 16:13 IEM5 World - FX - 2:1 Xperia PLAY - FX - 2:0 E-stars - FX - 16:9/1:1 and what SK win versus FX on big tournaments? not showmatch or this not important :) who cares about some net games or small tournaments :) stupid fanboys maybe FX > SK this year sry... but you swedes still got chances, GL haha :)

2011-09-13 00:39

LOL i meant after Delpan joined, jesus so dumb

2011-09-13 22:24

i dont care when delpan join :) FX > sk this year

2011-09-13 22:26

haha like i said in my earlier post u guys cant face the truth, well check the rankings if u still cant understand, then you might check your sight

lol fanboy check SK's record vs FX and you'll see facts don't lie... FX only won at estars and even that was close, and that was an event after SK came from vacation so... Ranking doesn't lie either :)

2011-09-12 23:29

and when sk won with fx, it wasn't close? results like 16:13, 16:12 ^^(without showmatch) IMO they're on this same level...

2011-09-12 20:45

what a great job from hltv.org!

2011-09-12 20:47

Very good idea. Altough I think that system shows more like the ranking of team in last year. I think the previous results should count less than they do now.. FX should be top1 atm.

2011-09-12 20:53

smart

I can read.. and I read all you wrote You should have read what I wrote more carefully.. As I said before, previous results should count less than they do now, meaning that for example the 68% you pointed out, in my opinion it should less than 68% /for example 20%) ...

Great job! I think you should find a way to fit the rating system in the ranking system you know, integrate them. Would be even cooler :D

amazing, i can't imagine the hours you spent on this

2011-09-12 20:51

It would be nice to see that ranking on main page ^^; btw, nice job

2011-09-12 20:52

nice job reakq

great job :D

Nice post and very nice rankings. completely agree. maybe NaVi a bit further down, but then again I have not been paying too much attention to recent tournaments either :) Great job HLTV!

2011-09-12 20:55

2011-09-13 01:29

what? grow the f up boy, ukrainian guys are probably the most quite guys around here! even last year, when navi were rulling the world, u never saw more than a handfull! please, grow up and stop it, its freaking childish!

2011-09-13 02:25

"ukrainian guys are probably the most quite guys around here!" ? now, maybe. but a few months, i don't think so... it's not about childish. I visit 2/3 times HLTV per day, and some time ago, in most of the matchs of NaVi, i saw some ukrainians just saying "navi > all" , etc ! Now, when HLTV made a team ranking, i dont see any ukrainian saying nothing, whatever congratulating NaVi or still saying "navi > all" ... I don't "incriminate" the ukrainian guys, just compare, old times (months), to now. peace :-D

2011-09-13 16:13

2011-09-12 21:55

Awesome work, been way too long since we've had something like this done in the CS scene and its really great to have. I think the results look reasonably accurate too, and it'll be interesting to see how it progresses over time. Good job!

Awesome job as usual. My love for CS is back because of you guys, hltv crew.

2011-09-12 22:11

ESC behind fnatic & navi, HEAHEHAEHAHEHEAHEAHEAHEAHEHAEHAEHAHE

So, what now polish fanboys? and all haters, SK is the best team of the world

throughout the year Fx were a bit better, especially in the beginning of the year, second half of the year sk become better,now with delpan maybe they are still a bit better, we will see wcg,sec and other tourney results iem euro fx 3rd sk 7-8? iem world fx 2nd sk 4th xperia fx 1st sk 2nd sk 1st gamegune,dh summer,icsc 8 2nd estars fx 1st asus summer,estars 2nd icsc 7

2011-09-12 22:23

I prefer best team of the month title than best team of the year, which isn't finished, yet.

2011-09-12 22:32

well that wouldnt be a lot of fun considering there are only 1-2 major tournaments played every month so the team of the month would be super easy to guess based on those results

2011-09-13 22:37

Troll ranking! :P Great job!

2011-09-12 22:18

#217 yes in team ranking, but looking objectively currently 1.FX 2.SK 3.mTw.. although FX has not been DH Summer, Gamegune..

navi navi navi hahahaha nice SK :D

Top 25 looks perfect well done mr france

Would be weird of the ranking system was based on results against each other. You know, like if say DTS beats Na'vi, then na'vi loses points and DTS gains points. Basically a ladder system.

2011-09-12 22:33

Superb, well done.

2011-09-12 22:34

Good read.

2011-09-12 23:01

how is sk better than fx? sure they won more tournaments but most of them b/c fx wasnt there and when they did face each other fx made sk look like col 2010(oh snap i went there)

2011-09-12 23:02

they have played 9 maps against each other and it's 7-2 to SK, ya kn0w

2011-09-12 23:09

And SuPeRhErOtEaM wasnt there either. They would have won everything for sure. Logic <3

2011-09-13 01:02

2011-09-13 04:28

Even though GoMeZ won't say it, he is a little disappointed by the clear lack of a pie graph.

2011-09-13 04:38

very sexy

2011-09-13 05:21

a suggestion: display a table where we can find out exactly the rating of an event. a question: how exactly do you CALCULATE the points. if you did mention it above, i seem 2 have missed it. and you seem to have missed the fx v sk e-stars final on ferno 19-17.

2011-09-13 05:26

Well explained ;)

2011-09-13 06:20

I think it is unfair for Chinese teams, because Tyloo is unable to take part in some of events such as Xperia PLAY, DreamHack Summer and GameGune, same as American teams

2011-09-13 08:04

Well come on, if they do not play how the hell should we rank them?

2011-09-13 11:10

I guess you finally made it perfect, good job homie! Now come back so we can BABAM everyone :) And give them some HooligaN1 shit so they can jerk off! haha
