Team USA People’s Choice Awards 2020

The national teams decided by the people!

Ultiworld is running a Team USA prediction contest for the USA national teams that will attend WUGC 2020. As tryouts have now started, the contest is closed, and we are awaiting the final team selections to see who won this contest.

We received 209 submissions.

If the predictions are treated as votes to make Team USA, these would be the 24 players selected for each team. The mixed team takes the top 12 male-matching and top 12 female-matching players, whereas the single-gendered teams take the top 24. If a player makes the cut in both teams, they are put on the team where they had the best relative ranking. For example, Georgia Bosscher is the 14th highest pick to make the women’s team, but also the 7th highest pick to make the mixed team among female-matching players, therefore she is placed on the mixed team.
