View Full Version : SG Scrim bracket system

Hey guys,

Fishey and I are working on a MM-type system for SG to have an official sort of scrim system for the community. It would be set up so you dont have to sign up with a team and you're ranked as an individual (like CS:GO does ranks) and matchmaking happens from there. With that system we can set up tournaments and leagues for different ranks and groups, stuff like that.

What we're looking for now is to see who would actually be interested in playing (at any level). No rank required to play or anything, it's going to be open for everyone and will be started when school isn't too busy for everybody. Please answer the poll and post in the thread if you have any questions/suggestions! :)


Thanks

While I don't play that often anymore, I'm happy to see that these events arise out of people's own initiative :)
We need to keep doing these events to support our playerbase and its interests

Keep up the good work!

The short answer to that is no. Although I'm sure one could be arranged somehow if needed

The poll on this turned out to be pretty lopsided. Would be pretty cool to see this actually happen, if there is indeed enough support to do so.

Lol so do I, I ranked Distinguished Master Guardian a year ago and still can't get a competitive win to show it again after being inactive for so long. SG scrimming would still be fun regardless.

Count me in, and yeah, 128 tick or riot.
Edit: Anything above DMG/LE+ is suicide anyway. All you're going to get are cheaters/boosters with cheats.
Source: I've been there and I'd honestly rather stick to DMG than getting my ass fucked in LEM+ by cheaters every 2nd game. Or just play faceit for free.

Remember when x22 used to be one of the best cheats in css? The whole server laughed at one of my teammates because he used it.
It's like you're still using nokia.

It's like you're still using nokia.Yeah this is why I gave up on mm after reaching LE. There are so many cheaters that it has gotten to a point where you suspect anyone playing well of cheating and it just makes you give up on trying. ESEA has been great so far, there's just the people who can't accept that your team doesn't always consist of high ranked players and get salty.

Until the pros stop using it I could care what they did in the past. You clearly have a biased against them but that doesn't mean someone is gonna have a bad time using ESEA.

Pros using it is a bad argument, you wont learn or get better by getting owned by pros. Cevo or faceit will do well enough. And yeah it's quite normal to have a bias against people who been doing shady bussiness since they started.

I wasn't the one that began the overall discussion but I will get in contact with Prez & I believe Fishey who said that they would be interested in starting this. I wouldn't mind helping out with this either, I believe it would be good for the community and would be a cool event to get people excited.

How would you do stats/rankings?

What difference is this from just using their CS:GO MM ranking? I've been in Silver Elite on my alt, if you're honestly good enough, you climb out of it and gold nova impossibly easy. I don't see how having our own system will be accurate at all.

It would be more accurate to just link people's CSGO MM rank to their forum account if they wanted. Setting up our own elo and matchmaking ranks based on personal skill in a private scrim server could A. Be easy to abuse B. Not accurate of their individual skill C. There is a better one in just using the CSGO MM.

isnt it suppost to be more so that groups of friends on SG can play against each other for bragging rights and what not.

Fuze
10 Apr 2015, 05:28pm
Are you saying that you want to split the people who are gonna play up by their elo? from past experience that will only kill the SG scrim server. Ive seen that server do its best in the summer only when people wanna play and if your gonna split it up by stats your gonna ahve 10 select people at the top and everyone else in the middle youll never get a game going assuming im reading what you want to do correctly.

Also, double is better then MGE no idea why hes only that. He can do better/keep up with all the DMG+ whenever hes queued up with me.

I think the main two questions the people working on this should have is: A. What would attract people to the server? And B. What would give people incentive to keep playing it?

A tournament once in so much time where people sign up and compete in randomly generated teams for a prize pool would prevent team stacking and is a good way for people who don't usually talk or get along to get to know eachother. I think that would suffice for point A.

As for point B, I agree with what Xeno said about how a rank based just on score in this particular server wouldn't be accurate, and easily abused. However, I think to keep a server like this alive there has to be incentive to keep playing. Perhaps we can use MM ranking to try and create even teams, but still have our own ranking system (similar to ESEA roundwinshare if a plugin like this exists to the public).

Maybe Prez can shed some light on what he, BlackEagle and Fishey have discussed so far.
