Guild Wars 2

So the weekend is over and is anyone surprised with their servers performance.

T8: No surprise , No. 17 beating 24 and 22

T7: Semi Surprise, No. 18 beating 20 and 22 , FC has a pulse!

T6: No Surprise, No. 15 beating 19 and 20

T5: No Surprise, No. 12 beating 14 and 15 , for 12 weeks in a row .

T4: Surprise, No. 9 beating 8 and 11 , CD still in the hunt.

T3: No Surprise , No 5 beating 7 and 13 .

T2: Semi Surprise, No. 4 beating 6 and 10 , SoS looking to be a contender, moving up 3 spots!

T1: Same old same old matchup. No Surprise.

Anyone else?

T8: no surprise.

T7: surprise, FC is doing much better against IoJ than predicted. Either FC was under-rated, or IoJ was over-rated. I’m leaning towards the latter because if FC was under-rated then ET and HoD (who have played FC for a while now) would also be under-rated, but they’re performing as expected vs SF. so if FC was under-rated that means SF was under-rated too.

T6. surprise, NSP is putting up a strong fight despite being rated 200 below DH.

T5. no surprise at all.

T4. big surprise, CD is ahead of Kaineng, despite Kaineng being rated 200 higher.

T3. surprise, SBI is only about 7K points behind Maguuma, despite being rated almost 300 lower. DB is beating both of them, that’s not a surprise.

T2. surprise, SoS is doing much better than expected against 2 higher-rated opponents, and is bleeding rating points from both of them.

T1. no surprise.

Can’t give true predictions for another 2-3 days at least because many servers have bigger weekday forces than weekend and vice versa…different game during the week

The largest reason SF didn’t go further than t6 is coverage. T6 is where the coverage wars start, our nightly/EU population compared to IoJ/DH hurt us a lot. If we had one that could just hold defensively against either server, we would’ve probably sailed up into t5.
