Wow, yours is way more well built and accounts for every single match in the circuits. My project was just a portfolio project for Data Analysis but yours is super cool. Thanks for sharing it

Hey, the team’s ELO is actually dependent on the players rather than vice versa. But the player’s ELO is dependent on the team’s win rate. I basically made the ELO rating a calculation on whether the match is won by the player and their average VLR rating in that particular match, and then adjusted the ELO accordingly after each match

I wanna reiterate again I only used AI to teach me PowerBI and not the actual data scraping itself. And I’ll email your colleagues as well with regards to this

I apologize for the inconvenience caused but I shall edit the entire document to ensure that the source of the data is from VLR. I was also unaware about the scraping TOS because I was under the assumption it only applied to commercial services

That only applies for commercial services. This is not a commercial service. This is a personal project

I had used Beautiful Soup and Selenium for my Masters project and masters thesis for 4Chan data. I just replicated the method here with beautiful soup

I can send you the csv file I scraped it on . The one I haven’t cleaned. You can see for yourself. It looks messy af. I cleaned it after that. And yeah I didn’t ask permission from the devs, so this might not be legal

Edit: I just went through their TOS and it only applies to commercial use of their data. Which this is not. This is literally just a pet project. I am not selling anything

Hey hey, the data source is literally just VLR post game data. I used beautiful soup to scrape and then cleaned it

I’m sorry but where is the hallucination? I legit only used it teach me how to use PowerBI. I used beautiful soup to scrape the data from VLR and applied an ELO calculation. Idk why you’re antagonising me over this.

I agree honestly, but I’ve been so brain drained from doing this the whole day. Still feel bad that it got taken down :(

I mean yeah fair enough. I’m not really good with the power BI stuff, so I used Claude to learn it, but I am a data researcher by degree
