Question 1

What is the reason for implementing the new level?

Accepted Answer

Our goal is to reduce the skill gap between levels as much as possible, aiming for fairer competition. However, this is still an early stage, so it may take some time to accurately assess each player's skill level.

Question 2

What was the purpose of implementing the points system?

Accepted Answer

The purpose of implementing the points system is to maintain a database that tracks each player's performance in every tournament. This allows us to easily classify players into appropriate skill groups.

We have set specific point thresholds for each skill level. If a player's points reach a certain threshold, they will be moved to a higher or lower skill group instead of remaining in the same one.

Question 3

How are points awarded or deducted?

Accepted Answer

A player's points will be awarded based on their placement. Below is the points distribution:

Champion: +20 points
Second Place: +15 points
Third Place: +10 points
Quarter-finals: +5 points
Round of 64 / Round of 32 / Round of 16: 0 points
Not Qualified: -5 points

Question 4

This is the points table for each skill group, along with an explanation of how a player can be promoted or demoted to another group.

Accepted Answer

Skill Group Points Breakdown:
C New: 0-60 Points
C: 60-120 Points
B New: 120-180 Points
B: 180-240 Points
A: 240-300 Points
A Star: 300+ Points

A player may win multiple tournaments before being promoted or demoted to a different skill group. For example, a player starting in the 'B New' group (120 points) could win 3 times, place Second 4 times, or place Third 6 times before being promoted to the 'B' group.

Conversely, a player can be demoted from their current skill group if they consistently underperform. To be demoted, a player must first reach the minimum point threshold of their current group and then fail to qualify in two consecutive tournaments. This indicates that the player is better suited to a lower skill group.
