Ranking Points are used to determine ranking as detailed in 5.3.3 and 5.3.4.

You need to read the entire manual and use the information together to understand the game. It is hard to understand things with only bits and pieces of knowledge.
Trust me, i have read the manual. This is just fairly confusing to me and i cant seem to understand it, hence why i am here. I also may not be the only one, and its good to have an ELI5 understanding of something important.

So points Determine W/L/T, and then RP determines seed? then in the playoffs RP is not used and Just Points are used?
