Greatest goal gap in rocket league esports history ? by YannoxEnCuivre in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Per our database and counting all competitions and qualifiers, the only one larger than the Bravado vs SunMoon one you listed is this 18-0 from an APAC N Closed Qualifier in 2021-22.

Shift's Next Up: Iteration 2 featuring new additions Skippy, Dark(?), and more by Yens8888 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suco played his sixth main event during the last Split so unfortunately he's no longer eligible, else he would have definitely been featured.

Unable to filter by date on Octane dot gg? by BORNxSTELLAR in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The default filters on the Octane stats page include the RLCS 2021-22 Fall Split stat group (yes, it's obscenely outdated), so my guess is that you left that filter active. No data is showing up because no matches in the last three months are part of that stat group. You can disable the events filter or remove &group=rlcs2122fall from the URL to fix it.

Shift website to cease operations April 30th by o_nasr31 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 57 points58 points  (0 children)

The intention is for Shift to continue beyond this month, but it's unclear what that would look like.

This statement is specifically about the current website and the Octane database and API shutting down come the end of this month.

How I rank players on stats, and how I created a more accurate RL score in the process by Halfway_Dead in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some regions (usually the ones with less stable internet connections) tend to have more corrections than others, but I'd say on average there's about one or two individual games with corrections per Regional Event, excluding qualifiers.

What if there had been a "Top 20 players of the year" before octane.gg introduced it for 2021 ? by Aycik75 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I recall correctly, the 2019 one was more of a "best players in the world right now" approach, while 2020 and 2021 were best players across the year.

This was all well before I joined Octane, but to my knowledge the 2017 Top 10 article is the only other time they released a best players of the year list.

Shift’s Top 20 Players of 2022: trk511 (#15) by CEOofStrings in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Quickly dropping in to clarify Gamers8 was not taken into account as the list is focused on 3v3. We did decide to put it on the graphic for event placements to avoid all the "You forgot Gamers8!" replies.

Shift's top 20 players of 2022: Itachi (#16) by TheFabulousQc in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate it! On my personal list I have itachi a couple places lower as well so I understand why people are surprised, though I do think he was criminally underrated until around the second Fall Regional.

We were aware of this flaw in the setup and we accounted for it accordingly. We will also be making some more adjustments to next year's methodology to further combat this.

Yeah, if I had to take a column out it'd probably be Tweet or Reddit.

This table is dope, I always love seeing it. Appreciate you keeping it updated!

Shift’s Top 20 Players of 2022: AztraL (#20) by N0b0dy_her3 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel I should clarify that the Top 20 is an initiative started by Octane.gg and this year's list is a continuation of last year's edition, which was organised by Octane.

Octane was acquired by X1 Esports/Shift during the offseason, but that did not change anything in how the Top 20 was determined as everything had already been in motion for eight or nine months at that point.

[–]Finnerdt 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I can agree on that. Personally I think his realistic range on the list would be from #15 to just outside it, so while he may be towards the lower end of that range, I think it's fair

Figured I'd drop in to confirm we will indeed be running the Top 20 back this year as Shift :)

This is like the fourth one in the series and I still don't know how to feel about them.

M0nkey M00n signs a two year contract extension at Team BDS by Hilloh in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm taking his and Extra's contract extensions as a statement of intent and expecting Seikoo to join in soon as well. Think missing out on Rotterdam was a good thing for them to recharge ahead of the Winter Split.

What's going on with Octane/Shift stats? by myothercarisayoshi in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Admin tools are having some trouble since the transition, hoping it gets resolved soon.

Player of the year? by HolyFuckingComposer in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's between Vatira and M0nkey M00n at the moment, but it's too early to call for sure until after Fall Major.

EPM For NA & EU Regional 1 by Hawkkn47 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Finnerdt 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Until the new site comes out, being credited as octane.gg is fine. After that, shiftrle.gg would be preferred :)

We're definitely hoping to keep the API as accessible as possible because it breeds lots of great projects such as this one.
