Houston Thursday night top 8 projections

Here is a snapshot of who my event simulator believes will be in the top 8 at the end of each Houston event. The percentages here represent the proportion of simulations in which the given team ends up in the top 8. This means for example that a likelihood of 0% does not mean a team is mathematically eliminated from the top 8.

There aren’t many locks just yet. 1690, 2122, 971, 1619, 118, 330, and 973 seem to be the safest bets.

Interesting. Galileo looks like a slugfest.

I think it might be suffering from a poor data set right now. I’ve been working with 6547a bit this year and they’re decent, but just a passive gear and 5 ish second climb. Though with a decent center great auto. Still, Given they’re up against 701 and 492 their next two matches, I think 25% odds of top 8 are slightly optimistic.

Lunchtime update.

Does your model predict the most likely 1 seed in each division?

Yes it does.

Thank you! Super interesting in a few divisions.

honestly, it really was. Our team 2415 has not the greatest schedule, so it was tough seeding in a good position. We had to fight hard in galileo finals with phoenix and 2630 to pull out a slim win over the 1 seed which had 1538 holy cows and 492 titan robotics. They almost got their 4th rotor spinning at the last second. If the match at gone on 2 seconds longer 1538 would have gotten their last 2 spins on the 4 rotor gear and got the 4th rotor turning since they had all the gears they needed for a 4th rotor in the airship and been the galileo division winners instead of the 6th seed alliance featuring us, phoenix and thunderbolts.

Is It possible for you to post what it had as #1 seed likelihood as of thursday night for comparison? Curious how the tool looks in hindsight.

Sure, I haven’t yet added this feature to my published simulator, but I have some hacks I can do. Note that I changed the model parameters after Houston. Most notably, I increased the maximum likelihood of a rotor ranking point from 28% to 64% between v7 and v8. This means that my rank predictions for really good gear scorers were probably low for Houston, and that problem should be much less prevalent in v8.

Anyway, here were what v7 of my simulator would have predicted as of match 50 for each Houston event (bolded team ended up seeding first).
