Just to emphasize the quality of OPR as a predictor of who will be playing on Saturday afternoon. Keep in mind, this was a 66 team regional, and predicting 24 robots out of the field is no small feat.
Here's the top 24 OPR from the GTR, and whether they were picked in the elims:
Code:
1114 #1 Captain
2056 #1 1st Pick
1310 #2 1st Pick
703 Removed themselves from the elims due to technical problems
176 #7 Captain
1507 #3 Captain
843 #5 Captain
1565 #4 1st Pick
247 #3 2nd Pick
1334 #6 Captain
1246 Not Picked
771 #5 2nd Pick
2166 #1 2nd Pick
188 #2 Captain
1503 #3 1st Pick
772 #8 1st Pick
2386 #6 1st Pick
1241 #4 Captain
1676 #7 1st Pick
2200 #5 1st Pick
2505 #2 2nd Pick
1859 Not Picked
781 #4 2nd Pick
1075 Not Picked
20/24 is a ridiculously decent hit rate. It should be higher since you couldn't expect this algorithm to predict that 703 would graciously withdraw.
Expect all good scouting teams to be using these stats in the very near future.
