Estimated Points

Who is setting the estimated points and how are they getting their numbers? Why is Berg, who ranks high in fantasy points per game historically, only rated for 36 points during week 3? Meteos rated for 13 points after having 70+ and 50+ weeks? Steeelback at 32, who scored over 80 points week 2?

I was actually just about to post this. They were done at the start and not changed since, with a couple exceptions. That's why Forg1ven and Piglet have such high numbers and Meteos and Impact are so low (which was wrong to begin with).

I would love to see these numbers updated weekly. In fact, I would love to be the guy who does this, cough, Rito, cough.

It does feel like each player and each team was given a base set of estimated stats (cs, kills, deaths, barons, first bloods, etc.), and then their opponents perform a function on those stats with estimated modifiers (eg: TSM is estimated to give up x number of towers per game, and x number of deaths, etc.) and based on whether those estimated modifiers are higher or lower than the average across all teams, each player and team has their estimated points go up or down depending on who their opponents are for that week. At least, that's how I generating my own estimations, using formulas on data from their Stats page.

C9 players have a low value because they are at risk of being subbed, even though some of them appear to be in more secure positions than others.

But they can't even find someone to maintain pinned discussions on this board, so I don't hold much hope for weekly updates to estimated points.

Meteos has so low estimated because C9 has 2 junglers, even though the other one is in the challenger team Dont know why the others doesnt get changed though
