Week 3 Power Rankings & Predictions

Hi! Manatsu here, power ranking and predicting who will win their matches this week. Previously in Week 2, we only had 3 tiers of rankings due to the early nature of the ELO system (one tier for undefeated teams, one tier for split decisions, and one tier for winless teams). However, with two weeks of matches in the books, teams have settled now into five tiers. The tiers are still a bit cookie cutter (the five tiers are 4-0, 3-1, 2-2, 1-3, 0-4). There are fewer ties in this week’s iteration of the power rankings, and predictions will hopefully become more accurate. I will be adding a tracker count to see how accurate my predictions are as well as the ELO’s. Here are Manatsu’s Power Rankings (MPR) for Week 3!

Predictions

This week will be the first round of divisional games! Unfortunately, I don’t have a good way of using the ELO system to predict the number of games the series will go. As such, I will only be showing which team the ELO system predicts to win. Since I’m not an ELO system, I will be predicting both the winner and the number of games. Because the number of points earned this week will be affected by how many games are played, I will only be providing my predicted Week 3 standings.
