Welcome back to Groger Ranks for the first rankings of 2019! We hadn’t posted all this while for a combination of factors (mainly the lack of major tournaments and business with the midseason poll), but now as the season gets back into the swing of things, so will we. This particular set of rankings may seem different from past rankings as it is the first rankings using the Modified Liu Adjustments (MLA). While previous rankings created adjustments based off of average differences between each set and IS 177 based on a group that played both sets, this form of adjustments looks at all different set to set combinations (for WHAQ’s adjustment for example, it would look at WHAQ vs IS 177, WHAQ vs IS 179 etc.) to create a more accurate PPB adjustment. Powers per game adjustments, on the other hand, are still based off of IS 177 for reasons Steven Liu will explain in the next Groger Ranks analysis article (coming soon). Now that that’s out of the way, here are your top 200!
