What's up with undefeated teams getting no love in the power rankings?
SK Gaming (6-0) Barely gets a spot in the top 10 Taipei Assassins (8-0) Barely making the list at #19 wat this makes no sense to me

Just because SK goes undefeated in EU doesn't mean they are better than all the korean and chinese teams...and Taipei Assassins play in one of the least competitive regions in the world. They are basically at mid LCS team level
Well first off SK has horrible warding ability but they have a very strong team so i think the warding is holding their rating down a lot
If you follow college basketball, TPA is like the best team in a mid-major conference. Sure they may be undefeated in conference, but they haven't played anyone that's any good yet.
SK, meanwhile... I think their stock is hurting due to a lack of a second dominant team in EU right now (looking right at you, Froggen & company). Sure, Fnatic may have a good record, but they don't look as dominant as the top 2 teams in NA at the moment.
yeah win rate isnt the deciding factor in the ratings. its a ton of stuff like varying strategies, objective control and warding, GPM and kill participation. lots of things go into those ratings, and then they are compared to the teams globally, not just regionally.
