VHFL Updates

[fishy 1,757]

This week for VHFL updates, I decided to editorialize some interesting cases we’ve got across the league! I’ll also be posting updates for each group in the thread like usual. Also keep an eye out for @tcookie25's "Around the VHL" articles for VHFL updates!

 

The biggest jump/fall

 

Group 14 has seen quite a bit of movement in points. @VinCal, @Jubis, and @domg5 are fighting in the top three, separated only by about 13 points. This past Monday, VinCal was in the lead with 732.99. Only 9 points away, Jubis held a close second with 732.72 and feeling the heat of domg5 in third with 721.97. This week, VinCal has dropped to third with 890.39, and domg5 jumped up to 907.22. Jubis holds second at 893.34, only about 3 points ahead of VinCal. In Group 19, TTtheT has fallen from 3 to 5 and bumped hooperorama and bigAL up one spot each. These two groups are the only ones where users have moved more than one slot, but it still goes to show how much fluctuation is still possible at this point in the season!

 

Most movement

 

Group 6 takes the cake for the most movement this week: everyone in the group switched places with someone else. Last week, the order was @Caboose30, @solas, me, @tcookie25, @tinafrombobsburgers, then @Peace. This week, solas holds first place by about 11 points, followed by Caboose, then tcookie25, me, Peace, and tinafrombobsburgers. No other group saw this kind of shifting - at least one user (or DQ roster) remained in place from last week. First and second, third and fourth, and fifth and sixth in Group 6 are going to be neck and neck as we close out the season; second and third are separated by about 9 points, and fifth and six are only about 18 points apart. As we close out the season, I don’t expect any one user to pull too far ahead of another in this group. 

 

Smallest differences

 

With only 86.16 points separating first and sixth place, Group 8 has the tightest group in the league. In sixth place, @youloser1337 has 830.38 points, which could be anywhere between fourth and sixth place in other groups. @KaleebtheMighty holds first place with 916.54 points, which could be anywhere between first and fourth place in other groups. Surprisingly, although this group has the smallest difference between first and sixth place, they the closest runs between users actually goes to another group. 

 

Users with < 2 point difference

 

Group 16: @Cxsquared (884.62) and @Jtv123 (884.38)

As of Monday, Jtv held first place, 20 points ahead of cxsquared in second place. Jtv held first place for about 3 weeks, but after only a few days after Monday’s update, these two are only .24 points apart. Although Jtv has some high-scoring players on his roster, like Condor Adrienne and Jacques Lafontaine, Cxsquared has a more consistent roster with points spread more evenly across players. I’ll be interested to see how this plays out between the two of them!

 

Group 7: @N0HBDY (819.59) and @Nicolai488 (819.34)

These two, currently duking it out for fifth place in Group 7, are separated only by .25 points. As of Monday, Nicolai held fifth with 677.32 points, and N0HBDY trailed with 657.19. Similar to the case in Group 16, Nicolai has two players carrying his roster, Guy Sasakamoose and Victor Grachev. N0HBDY, on the other hand, has more consistent players on his roster, like Hugh Jass, Jimmy Spyro, Jungkok, and Ray Sheilds, all of whom individually have less than Sasakamoose or Grachev but more than any of Nicolai’s other players. This just goes to show that one player can’t make or break a roster!

 

Group 10: @aksuko (857.16) and @Spartan (855.63)

Aksuko and Spartan have been fighting for third for the past couple weeks. Spartan held third for the last two updates, but in the time between those updates, he and aksuko have oscillated between third and fourth. On Monday, Spartan led 697.86 to 686.12. As was the case with 16 and 12, aksuko’s roster is carried by Condor Adrienne and Guy Sasakamoose. The next highest-scoring player on his roster is over 50 points behind Sasakamoose. Though Spartan doesn’t have players as high-scoring as other of those two, half his roster is sitting at around 160 a piece.

 

Group 4: @Victor (884.99) and @BladeMaiden (883.62)

When I saw both of these users get assigned to the same group, I knew it’d be an insanely close race. Both Victor and Blade finished in the top 3 users last season, so the friendly competition was on. Surprisingly, the two reigning “medalists” are currently holding down third and fourth, respectively. They’ve been oscillating for the past couple weeks, and I’m excited to see who takes the cake in this one. 

 

And that’s a wrap for VHFL updates this week! Keep an eye out for a notification about updated standings in your group coming soon!
