LOL just the first game of the season. Your team has a surprisingly good defensive ratings (given that you were on the road).

Decided to create a simple power rankings for the league. I may tinker with how I weight different aspects of the team throughout the season, but in general, I'm looking at 3 factors: Skill ratings in games (Offense and Defense), Player salaries (top 8 players, with more weight to top 5), and win/loss record. I also included some notes about what stuck out for each team.

Rk--Name---------Score---Notes
1---Lahser---------0.912---[#3 Offense, #1 Starters]
2---Sloths----------0.905---[#4 Offense, T3 Defense]
3---Dogs-----------0.89 ----[T1 offense, #2 Defense]
4---Turtles---------0.887----[#1 Defense, #1 Bench]
5---Pirates---------0.844----[T1 offense, #2 Bench salary]
6---Tall Bodies----0.823----[#4 Defense]
7---Peppers--------0.809---[#4 Bench]
8---Huskies--------0.753----[#13 Starters]
9---Champs--------0.75 ----[#2 Starters, #16 Bench. #3 Offense]
10--Cardinals------0.717----[#7 Offense, #4 Starters]
11--Tropics---------0.687---[Between 7-12 in every category]
12--EBW-----------0.656----[#16 Offense, T7 Defense]
13--Sonics---------0.62-----[#6 Offense, #15 Defense]
14--Wolves--------0.588----[#15 Starters, #14 Bench
15--Kings----------0.586----[#14 Defense, #14 Starters]
16--Capybara-----0.535----[#16 Defense, #16 Starters]


Other interesting notes:

In each category I set the best team's score as 100% and all other teams as a percentage of that score. So at least one team got a perfect score in each metric.

6 teams received the exact same offense grade of 84% (a 6 way tie for 10th place)

The offenses in the league were surprisingly evenly matched. The lowest rating of any team was 82%. By comparison, the lowest defense rating was 59% and 2 other teams scored below 70%

Every team that won their first game is in top 8. I promise, W/L record is only 10% of the score!

Additionally, every team that got a top 8 ranking (and in turn, every team that won game 1) had a top 8 defense.

Obviously take rankings from just 1 game with a grain of salt; I'll try to update the ranking a few times throughout the season.

Wow, this was fun to read. Thank you for putting effort into this. Ngl, I liked seeing my team at the top. We'll have a better picture this week since I'm playing the number "2" ranked team.
This is my ranking for the top teams atm:

1. Lahser
2. BallaChamps
3. Tall Bodies
4. Sloths
5. Cardinals

These teams who I thought are the strongest 4 right now but I might be wrong of course since Champs lost a game they shouldn't.

I don't play my main guys in cups, so GS is not an issue. They get the ideal minutes per week and I wouldn't exactly call this a tiny roster. You are tiny!
