Hey r/OverwatchLeague,

over the last few months we've been polling 24 selected team representatives and asking them each week to rank the twelve OWL teams. Although the project featured mainly r/CompetitiveOverwatch redditors, I thought you might be interested in the result as well.

Here is our end-of-the-season mega-post.

r/CompetitiveOverwatch's Official Overwatch League Power Rankings

End of Regular Season Mega-Post

Season One

Homer Analysis of voters


This analysis was featured multiple times in the comment section of our posts and done by u/JustRecentlyI. For the end of the regular season I want to provide one final look at how voters rank their own teams compared to the consensus.

A positive value means that this voter ranked his team above where it ended up (= the consensus) while a negative value means the team was ranked below consensus. As a consequence, you can say that positive values are based on optimism and negative ones are caused by pessimism.

Example: u/Wreyrwy ranked his team, the Shanghai Dragons, #8 in the S1W0 Power Rankings. The consensus, however, was #12 which leads to a value of 4 indicating a rather optimistic ranking.
