going to reply here in a new one. mostly to summarize because to start I wanted to say thank you. have changed my mind one the question. which one is better S2 or S3? depends in theory I agree that S2 is better for accurately ranking players, in practice it has issues. But in this day an age...

Honestly yeah, going back and forth through everyone’s message I think the last part is the best from the discus I would say that even before but the differences are bigger and aggravated after that patch

Actually I never sad accurate or accurate placing players at any point. my entire argument was compensating for something Glicko2 doesn’t measure, the players performance by given them the 3 win lose system ”I am reading the rest dw”

here how it works: int MatchesWon = 0 int MatchesLost = 0 Int AccumulatePower = 0 While(MatchesWon<3 or MatchesLost<3){ _______ // Splatoon 2 power of Glicko2 when a match finishes _______Accumulate Power += Played match result _______If match == win ____________MatchesWon +=1 _______else...

based on what what is your Metric to affirm it is the “better value”? my initial intention to these post was to actually hear the other side of the argument, anyone can think and S2 or S3 is better.And I appreciate everyone that did reply they said S2. But if you are defending your point...

Not much to add to the discussion. Mostly just that Being a high level player it does feel easy to get into rank X, and people said the same in S2. Then a report came in from nintendo that showed 1% of the players were in Rank X. So i will have to disagree with that part. Since it becomes a...

It does feel too much for sure, but I do not have the Knowledge to find the better value if I am not mistaken, S2 did implement weapon matchmaking too

thank you for sharing this awesome video. Matchmaking is very hard and has many subjective points people have to choose, which can compromise the experience for players to enjoy the game.

So by your logic, the current highest player https://x.com/melon1_game/status/1753390810664731085?s=20 shouldnt have lost any matches; They are above everyone they fought. I think you are confusing being the best with being undefeated And you are not seeing the perspective that this is a 4v4...

I think you are missing the point. I am not saying at any point that it should it include any of that list, I am stating what glicko2 uses to calculate points in both S2 and S3. The thread is discussing the clamping part of the points instead of raw Glicko2 values which is independent of the...

Factors Glicko2 doesnt include in the calculation -Specials used -enemy splatted -objective participation -turf painted -number of times splatted -objective score -Amount of time taken to KO It only cares for the winner of the match, the biggest criticism I spent reading on twitter when players...

Now my arguments for S3>S2 I think we can agree given the main issue is the inflation of points, given the player that just reached pass 4000 losing around 400 points after losing as series. The theoretical System of Splatoon 2 Ranking system is great but in practice it is bad for any player...

I would argue it is not a great system for ranking since it can not do that properly when the game wont connect to all possible players around the world. Back in S2, given how the match making works, it creates poles of players that have very heterogenous skill levels and a more stable win loss...

i myself have been studying it and getting familiar with it way more than a normal human basing should, which is still not wrong to say S3 uses Glicko2 for each single MATCH. But since I don’t want to scare people posting the formula and explaining the terms, I am pointing out the difference...

I have seen 2 tweets about people saying we should go back to S2 system of Rank X. What is everyone's opinion on this? But keep in mind Both still calculate points using Glicko2. And if you want to experience the S2 point system in Splatoon 3, Play anarchy open with friends, challenge or Pro...
