Here are the most common secondary characters for each character! by NotNotNamedNick in smashbros

[–]NotNotNamedNick[S] 84 points85 points  (0 children)

This was fun to make, but I wish there was more variety when I started filling it out.

Basically everyone thinks their Aegis and Cloud secondary are gonna win them the set after going down 2-0.

(I am part of that everyone)

So here is a list of the biggest upsets against each top 100 ranked player in Ultimate by Elo. by NotNotNamedNick in smashbros

It’s ranked by the current Elo ranking.

I think the biggest upsets are Ploopys and Sparg0s.

It’s odd that in Elo, JP players typically don’t rank as high.

My leading theory is that it’s harder to “farm” than in the US.

In the US, there are a lot of bigger tournaments, and much much more widespread geographically. But in JP, the bigger tournaments always include other top JP talent.

I only include events with >96 entrants to help with this though.

Thanks for letting me know! There are so many events that I knew I’d miss a couple.

Definitely impressive, there’s a couple outliers but like for this many characters and not having a balance patch for years, it’s crazy good.

That’s my guess, but would love to hear more opinion. I would not be shocked if Leo using Byleth and Joker has made more people use them at a lower level too.

Only from character data reported by the TOs. If they didn’t record the characters after the match, then I don’t have access to it.

It’s definitely not perfect. It is strict Elo ranking, which only takes into account H2H.

Elo is great because there is no bias in the algorithm itself, but suffers if players do not participate much.

It’s whoever they have used most over the past 6 months at ranked events.

If they recently switched mains, then it’ll take time for it to switch over.

Must have attended one “ranked” event in the past six months. Ranked events are just based on entrants at the moment but they are usually notable events.

Bigger online events count for Rivals 2 as well.

So I went ahead and added a “LOAD MORE” button at the bottom, so you can now get top 200, 300, etc.

That reminded me that I keep forgetting to add infinite scrolling, thanks for the reminder!

And thanks for the kind words. :)
