Stats-base Projections - Week 6
[Edit] Updated to show how the results compared to the projections. [/Edit]
Week 5 was a good example of not relying on previous stats to try and predict the future. There were some major upsets, with teams like FNC failing to scrape even double digit kills over 2 games against the likes of GIA (who aren't a trash team?). Other teams are starting to clean up their play, giving away a lower number of deaths (where previously they were high) - IMT, UOL.
I've updated all of my posts from week 5 with a comparison of how the projections measured up to the actual results. It probably won't inspire a lot of confidence in being able to use my stats-based projections for future weeks (especially as I don't have as in depth stats as Riot), but week 5 certainly was an exceptionally odd week that few could have predicted the results for.

In an effort to help provide slightly more useful data to go by, I'm also going to add a couple of extra charts: Average deaths per week & Average kills per week. Rather than simply giving you a total average number of deaths and kills for the split so far, you may be able to identify which teams are consistent, which teams are altering their trends, and which teams are seemingly erratic (I would like to add in who each team faced each week, to add some context to their stats, but it's difficult squeezing it all into a single image).

Like last time, I'm going to add a post for player position projections too (omitting the players that I don't have complete information on, because of substitutions, and would prefer not to fudge some numbers for the omitted players). But hopefully this week will be a bit more predictable... please!?
As ever, there is more to drafting than raw stats, but I will always appreciate upvotes for the effort.
