ratings for 1-25 locked

menel dropped to 8.5

24, Azuline and Creature are all 8* sharks who I would - without thinking - add before Menelvagor at 8*, let alone his adjusted rating of 9*. He plays inaccurately - trying to set up low % bombs with little regard for timing. Delaying death to set up bombs - especially in FR battles - is a major red flag, because it effectively means the shark has repped for his own self-preservation, and not for space or deeper fire coverage, and means his partner has been stuck trying to conserve energy in some forsaken corner of base. Any higher level shark knows he's a nightmare to partner with. 8* is 100% accurate, well done to the initial raters for their accurate rating. Let's please stop taking Poseiden's hot-takes on anything related to shark seriously.

i personally don't see any too high. maybe yawn should be 8* for basing? idk...i just offered my suggestions because i see caps wanting to stay quiet and hold out for broken ratings, which i get, but then people go and cry when broken players are playing for another team besides their own. there are a few i suggested i was hoping Racka could take advantage for us (mainly dad/usoi/sprained which he can back up), but trying to have a little bit of integrity. it seems whether players suggest lower ratings, higher ratings, or no change, there always has to be some conspiracy behind it.

Not that I really care but there is a whole lot of biased posts in here trying to influence ratings. For example if a cap knows they cant draft someone, or is content with their line, they are trying to have them bumped up. This always happens, esp in FA ratings. It looks innocent but a lot of times the slightest bump will move someone from somewhat playable to never going to be added. Ratings should be done by the same people who were involved in the original ratings.

This is super obvious just based off the fact that almost no suggestions have been made to actually lower ratings.

Sprained and Usoi should be bumped to 8.5 in base imo

[renzi]

Liz could be 8. Rest yeah in my opinion.

and since I have certain captains actually texting me upset that I’m giving my own opinion on what I believe to be proper ratings, you should definitely get more input

[beam]

so then does liz at 8, sprained and usoi at 8.5, menel at 9 sound reasonable?

[renzi]

Imo both usoi and sprained are easily 8.5 in basing given their current activity. Mene should also be a 9 in basing

[maketso]

I'm not a baser but due to the fact that I'm rated 8,5* (am I a baser after all?) menelvagor 9, he is LB champion etc

[beam]
