Polish Ultimate Power Rankings Season 2 as of October 2019(including SmashOn 9)


14. Tac'O Cat

Summer 2019: unranked
September update: unranked

Sets won: 2
Sets lost: 2
Good wins: J.J
Bad losses: none

Hackroom 6: 4/11

His win against J.J and no losses outside the top 5 is what puts him here. Top 10 is still very much obtainable if he attends a couple more tournaments this year. 

13. otis

Summer 2019: unranked
September update: 8

Sets won: 4
Sets lost: 2
Good wins: Zychuu x2
Bad losses: none

SmashOn 6: 2/16

Otis sees a huge drop in rank, as he hasn't attended anything since SmashOn 6. His wins on Zychuu are really good, but it isn't enough to push him over players who attended several events, or had actual top 5 wins this year.

12. J.J

Summer 2019: unranked
September update: 10/9

Sets won: 11
Sets lost: 8
Good wins: none
Bad losses: Tac'O Cat

SPB House: 7/20
Hackroom 5: 4/12
Hackroom 6: 5/11
Super Smash Bros. Wratislavia Summer: 4/17

J.J continues this season with his consistent placings and only one bad loss so far: Tac'O Cat. He is, like many players in the lower ranks, being held back by his lack of big wins and substantial upsets. He remains a gatekeeper, for now.

11. pies

Summer 2019: unranked
September update: 11

Sets won: 10
Sets lost: 8
Good wins: Zychuu x2
Bad losses: Blizth, Treaku

SmashOn 6: 7/16
SmashOn 7: 2/14
SmashOn 8: 4/16
SmashOn 9: 4/ 11

Pies continues his great form with two 4th place finishes at SmashOn tournaments. He managed to avoid any additional bad losses, proving, that his subpar performance at SmashOn 6 was only a fluke. His higher attendance is what gives him the edge over someone like otis, despite their wins being identical. A higher attendance equals a higher probability of being upset on, that's why it should be awarded.

10/9 Kuro

Summer 2019: unranked
September update: unranked

Sets won: 6
Sets lost: 2
Good wins: Drayv
Bad losses: none

SmashOn 8: 2/16

Kuro returns to the Polish top 10 after a long period of inactivity. His only tournament so far is SmashOn 8, where he went 1-1 with Zychuu and Drayv. He has pretty much identical results with Spyder.

10/9 Spyder

Summer 2019: 5
September update: unranked

Sets won: 5
Sets lost: 2
Good wins: Drayv
Bad losses: none

SmashOn 9: 2/11

Spyder re-enters the top 10 with his 2nd place at SmashOn 9. His results mirror Kuro's, with a 1-1 set count against both Zychuu and Drayv.

8. Zychuu

Summer 2019: unranked
September update: 10/9

Sets won: 16
Sets lost: 10
Good wins: Kuro, Spyder
Bad losses: none

SmashOn 6: 3/16
SPB House: 7/20
SmashOn 7: 3/14
SmashOn 8: 3/16
SmashOn 9: 3/11

Zychuu continues his consistent season with two additional 3rd places at SmashOn tournaments. Despite not placing in the top 2 this season, he managed to outplace pies at both of these tournaments, as well as take a set off both Kuro and Spyder who placed 2nd at SmashOn 8 and 9 respectively.

7. Kandif

Summer 2019: 6
September update: 7

Sets won: 17
Sets lost: 5
Good wins: none
Bad losses: none 

SPB House: 5/20
Tilt'N'Salt 1: 1/10
Tilt'N'Salt 1: 1/11
Super Smash Bros. Wratislavia Summer: 3/17

Kandif continues to dominate Wrocław, but he fails to take a set against a top 7 player. He has been very consistent this season, though, not dropping any sets to players below top 7, but his lack of big wins holds him back from improving his rank from the last update.

6. Megaban

Summer 2019: 8
September update: 6

Sets won: 6
Sets lost: 4
Good wins: Drayv x3, Gumanku
Bad losses: none

Hackroom 5: 3/12
Hackroom 6: 2/11

Megaban keeps his rank after a great showing at Hackroom 6, where he double eliminated Drayv and took a set off Gumanku. Anikai outplaces him just barely, due to a tournament win and a winning record with no losing records. Megaban has a 3-1 record against Drayv, while he's also losing against Gumanku. 

5. Anikai

Summer 2019: 7
September Update: 5

Sets won: 8
Sets lost: 2
Good wins: Aggrise x3
Bad losses: none

Super Smash Bros. Szczecin 11: 1/2(worthless)
Super Smash Bros. Szczecin 12: 1/9
Floating Destination 13: 2/7

Anikai manages to stay in the top 5 with his 2nd place at Floating Destination 13, where he took a set off Aggrise, before ultimately losing two sets in Grand Finals. This one set win is what keeps him ahead of Megaban, yes, it's that close. Keeping a winning record against Aggrise is what solidified his 5th spot for now, he can't be ranked any higher as he lacks further records against the top 7.

4. Drayv

Summer 2019: 2
September Update: 4

Sets won: 36
Sets lost: 10
Good wins: Kandif x1, Megaban x1, Gumanku x2
Bad losses: Kuro, Spyder

SmashOn 6: 1/16
SPB House: 4/20
SmashOn 7: 1/12
Hackroom 5: 2/12
Hackroom 6: 3/11
SmashOn 8: 1/16
Super Smash Bros. Wratislavia Summer: 1/17
SmashOn 9: 1/11

Drayv remains at 4th this month. His last month has been a mixed bag, when it comes to results. At Hackroom 6, Megaban double eliminated him, setting their set count at 3-1 in Megaban's favour. Drayv won both SmashOn's, but both Kuro and Spyder reset the bracket against him. Despite this, he's gotten closer to being ranked over Aggrise with his two set wins against Gumanku, which made their set count 2-2 and his set win against Kandif, both of which happened during his victorious run at Smash Wratislavia Summer. Aggrise just barely outplaces him this month.

3. Aggrise

Summer 2019: 3
September update: 3

Sets won: 15
Sets lost: 5
Good wins: Kandif x2, Anikai x2, Drayv x2
Bad losses: none

SPB House: 3/20
Super Smash Bros. Szczecin 12: 2/9
Floating Destination 13: 1/7

Aggrise's victory at Floating Destination 13 is the reason for him keeping his 3rd rank. He decreased the gap between himself and Anikai, putting their set count at 3-2 for Anikai after an hour long Grand Finals. He is barely ahead of Drayv, and only Ruczaj Rumble can set them apart for good.

2. Gumanku

Summer 2019: 1
September update: 2

Sets won: 19
Sets lost: 5
Good wins: Megaban x3, Drayv x2, Aggrise x2
Bad losses: none

SPB House: 2/20
Hackroom 5: 1/12
Hackroom 6: 1/11
Super Smash Bros. Wratislavia Summer: 2/17

Gumanku remains in 2nd place, after a rather poor month. He won Hackroom 6, dropping a set to Megaban, which isn't that bad, however, as he still holds a 3-1 record against him. The biggest disappointement, for his standards, came at Smash Wratislavia Summer, where he was double eliminated by Drayv for the first time ever, which put their set count at 2-2. This tournament victory would be something Gumanku desperately needed, in order to be ranked above Klopsiak, who hasn't attended any tournaments since SPB House. Gumanku has to settle at 2nd place for now.

1. Klopsiak

Summer 2019: 4
September update: 1

Sets won: 7
Sets lost: 0
Good wins: Gumanku x2, Drayv, Kandif
Bad losses: none

SPB House: 1/20

Klopsiak remains at the top, despite not attending anything this month. Gumanku would outplace him, if he won Smash Wratislavia Summer, but as it stands, Klopsiak is the number 1 going into Ruczaj Rumble.
