Any match rating system based on OPR is going to miss hot matches that are relevant because of ranking implications, though.
If we can devise a formula that uses a logarithmic scale we totally have a case for using the Scoville heat scale, and then we can use a lookup function to correlate the score to the appropriate pepper. Bringing in Carolina Reaper, Naga Viper and all the peppers.


Standings Impact Scores sounds like an interesting challenge. I see that corollary to the Match Hottness. Match Hottness wants to prioritize the offense a audiencability of a match, and really determine, if i'm going to watch one match, which one should it be? Standing Impact Scores should only measure the impact to the rest of the field.

A simple method to rank the Standing Impact Scores

Standard Deviation of All Teams [ Rank After - Rank Before)]

If you did that historically of all the results to date, I'm thinking you can probably build out a bell curve and then you'll have a way to rank them and be able to gauge whats really important.

If you measure that in real time (replacing rank after with expected rank after), you'll have a score and be able to determine what is decisive as the opportunity presents itself.
