Congrats to both teams on breaking the spell of Vaporeon Premier League.
Fun facts: (there will be more in the future once finals are done)
1) This is the first tournament where
Vaporeons have not made the finals through PO and the first tournament that the
Raikous have not made POs directly into the finals. It is also the first tournament that the
Vaporeons have not won (they just had to win this one and they would have had a custom avatar).
2) The
Ironman Machamps have achieved a sky high record winrate before the playoffs of
0.73,
having won 22 out of 30 games in the regular season, beating the second best winrate by a margin of 0.13. The second highest win rate of the season goes to the
Vaporeons who won 18 out of 30 before playoffs, third to the
Tyranitars with 15, tied for fourth are the
Raikous and
Death Scythes with 12 wins, and last the
Wolverines with 9 wins out of 30 games played.
Of their 22 games, they won:
all 5 in Ubers = 1.0
all 5 in NU =1.0
9 out of 15 OU games =0.6
3 out of 5 UU games = 0.6
resulting in a positive record across all tiers.
Their winrate is extraordinary even when compared to GSC PL II, with the two finalists in the Vaporeons and Raikous achieved 0.56 and 0.6 respectively.
2.5) Coincidentally,
they are the best performing teams in Ubers and NU this season (100% winrate). They may be the only team not to have dropped a game in two tiers for the whole season, and perhaps the whole tournament.
3)
Isa is the first player to go undefeated in 5 Ubers games of a single pre-playoff and
is (currently) tied for highest undefeated record (5-0) for any given tier in GSC PL history. The other two players are Raichy (GSC PL II - OU) and Gilbert Arenas (GSC PL I - OU).
4) The
Tyranitars have not managed to improve their
winrate of .50 in the semifinals (if tiebreakers aren't counted). They have won exactly 18 /36 games in total of which:
4 wins of 5 are in Ubers = 0.8
8 wins of 15 are in OU = 0.53
3 wins of 5 are in UU = 0.6
1 win of 5 in NU = 0.2
They are tied with the Machamps for the second best record of the regular season in UU with 3/5 wins.
The Tyranitars have had one of the best Ubers lineups in the season, losing only to Isa. Together, Corvere and Staxi have won 4/5 games.
5) The
Vaporeons have the best UU record pre-playoffs with 4 out of 5 wins, making a winrate of 0.8. Of this all 4 were won by Real Fv13 and the loss was of a teammate. Though RealFv13 is no longer undefeated in the tier this season, they have had the best results in UU.
OU Stats
6)
Watashi from the Machamps and
Shiloh from the Ttars are tied for the longest winstreak in OU at 4 games, with Watashi having a 4-1 W-L record and Shiloh having 5-1.
Hellpowna from the Vaporeons is tied in win to loss record with 5-1.
Vani (4-2 currently) and Watashi could however tie the number of wins.
