Leaderboards

We have some new players on the leaderboards, but unfortunately we don't have any new teams. For caps, Espeluznante takes the cap title with 13, while OuchMyBalls leads the week in hold with 625. What's this, another offender leading the week in hold after playing Miami Ballphins? For the third week in a row, Homie leads the week in tags and returns, while also getting the 10 DGASP and 100 DNISH for the third week in a row. It's honestly boring at this point. Maradona takes the prevent title for the second week with 836 seconds, while OuchMyBalls gets 27 pups for the pup title, becoming the second BAP player to lead a week in pups, with D4NK taking it in Week 1. Espeluznante captures the 10 OGASP and 100 ONISH due to his 13 caps. At least I don't have to make another POTM card.

Team Stats

I see a lot of green for BAP, WTP, and MB8, so it looks like both of these teams had good statistical performances. I see a whole lot of red for MIA, DOW, and GEH, which isn't very good. What's weird is that out of the three "green" teams, BAP is the only one who didn't sweep, which means that MIA is the only "red" team to not get swept. This same thing happened last week, when MB8 had a ton of green and MIA had a ton of red but they ended up splitting.

Compared to previous weeks, this week the most hold and returns on average, but also had the least amount of prevent. The average amount of good handoffs this week was also the most this season, compared to 31 in Week 1 and 26 in Week 2. This week also had the most grabs on average with 169, with 153 in Week 1 and 149 in Week 2. Suffice it to say, this was a holdy week with a ton of returns, which makes sense when the maps are Thicket and Scorpio.

Best / Worst TOTW

There were a lot more sweeps this time around, so I have some options here. My Best Team of the Week will be Weed the People with their sweep of GEH. They won all four halves and always were in control. For my Worst Team of the Week, I'm going to go with the team WTP swept, Green Eggs and Spam. GEH didn't see to have any real footing in this match, and the team stats paint a disappointing picture filled with red. Usually I try to pick teams from different matchups, but this seemed like the obvious choice.

Leaderboards

For the second week in a row, yung breezy had the most caps for the week, with 14 this time. That earned him the 10 OGASP and 100 ONISH for the second week in a row, with an added 10 TGASP and 100 TNISH this time around. For hold, T-Swift took it with 599 seconds, and while Niplepotamus had the most tags, KahnMan from BCC had the most returns and prevent, which got him the 10 DGASP and 100 DNISH. flaccid trip arrived back on the board after his blowout performance in Week 1, this time in the pups slot with 24 of them. We saw two new teams join the leaderboards here in BCC and WTP, which means that there are now five teams that have never seen a B-Team leaderboard spot.

Team Stats

Just like on A-Team, this week had the most hold and returns on average, but the least prevent on the season as well. Scorpio and Thicket were the culprits for this most likely. There is a lot of red for BAP and DOW, but considering the only team to get swept this week was DOW, there's actually not as much red here compared to the A-Team stats. P/HA dropped immensely, almost 0.09 points from Week 2, as well as F/G, by 0.05 flaccids. I saw more long holds, and the Chain% increased, which is probably why there was an increase in good handoffs from Week 2 to here.

Best / Worst TOTW

The only team that got swept this week was DOW, meanwhile the only team that swept was MB8, but I don't want to just give the teams that sweep the Best TOTW awards and the teams that got swept the Worst TOTW awards. There's got to be some more nuance. Using an algorithm that I personally created, I calculated which teams had the best "win factor", which is basically the probability that a team with...........I'm just kidding. I'm not that smart to do that. The Best Team of the Week was the Master Boaters, with the lone sweep of the week. The Worst Team of the Week was Do The Wire, since they're the only team that got swept. Don't you just love nuance?
