Competition Off-Season Events
#52

2056 is now at about even odds to seed 1st against the rest of the field. They’re also the first team to effectively lock a top 12 slot.

#53

Upcoming match 57 has blue favored at 10 to 1 over red. This match is part of why 2056 is so strongly favored for the 1 seed and 1023 is not really considered a viable candidate. An upset could flip those assumptions on their head though.

#54

Whoops, got 1023 and 1073 mixed up. 1023 v 2056 will happen in q91, where basically the same analysis holds true.

#55

1073 is what makes this not a sure thing for me

They did unexpectedly well against 1114, which completely changed everything

There appears to be a sharp cutoff between 3538 and 1684. The teams above are all very serious top 8 contenders and possible top 4 contenders. No one below 3538 will probably make the top 4.

Q61 had some big implications for the top seed race:
image
Nominally 930 was the winner, but missing an RP means their overall chances didn’t change much. The real winner was 2056 who saw their chances go up 8% because no one got 4RPs. The other teams down the list saw their chances improve as well at 1114’s expense.

From Q66, 319 goes from 16% to <1% first seed. 1023 goes from 7% to 22%. My model actually believes in 1023. They still have 2 very rough matches ahead of them in q101 and especially q91, but they might not even need to win both to seed first. Losing 1 would put them at 33RPs if they get all the rest, which would be tied with 2056 if 2056 gets all remaining RPs.

2056 and 1023 will probably be in the top 4, which will likely be rounded out with 2481 and/or 930. Also reasonable chance one or both of 225 or 1114 gets in the top 4 as well. For the one seed we have 2056 as a comfortable favorite (not yet >50% though) with 1023, 2481, and 930 all in solid contention.

Seems it’s going to be something like 31-32 RP.

@Caleb_Sykes this live blog is really awesome by the way. Thanks for doing it! It’s made it really easy to track how we’re doing (and so much more painful when we miss RP’s for stupid reasons).

Here’s something that maybe is interesting, I’ve taken every team and some of their metrics and compared their pre-IRI seed values against their values at IRI so far.
IRI metrics comparison.xlsx (154.9 KB)

Things I found interesting:

  • The average change across all metrics is negative. Not particularly surprising as teams are performing at below peak in the offseason, but more importantly, all metrics use the team’s peak in-season rating, not most recent. So of course the average will be lower than everyone’s max.
  • For the OPR match predictions this is fine, as everyone being overrated by some amount shouldn’t really change things much, but for the RP predictions this can cause some trouble. Almost every match I saw today in my simulator had the HAB RP success likelihood at 100%, which is partially due to this effect. Working on an alternative for that.
  • 2910’s Complete Rocket RP rate is .28 higher than expected. I think that this is largely due to the prevalence of teams that can complete the rocket. Other teams would also benefit from this change though, what I bet makes 2910 special is that they are so good at filling other roles in the match that their rocket-capable teammates don’t have to worry about those things and can better focus on completing the rocket.
  • 4028 has the highest change in endgame points. This is probably due to their unique 3rd level climb that often allows another team to climb along with them.
  • 4028 also has the highest change in auto points. I don’t know exactly the cause for this, but it is strangely coincidental along with the climbing. My suspicion is that they have added some auto modes for IRI so that they can always complement their partners’ routines, but that’s just speculation. Maybe someone from the team can chime in.

Hey this is Nick from team 4028. Our auto modes have significantly changed since worlds as we have removed them. We added a 6 NEO drive train in order to more effectively play defense. We switched to teleop for sandstorm, and we have become very consistent due to a well practiced and experienced drive team. In regards to the climb, our neos help to give our climb situation by giving us more pushing power to make the extra room on level 3 if all we need is an inch or two more. In all, the climb only takes up 17-18 inches of the platform.
