OCE Top 10 Rankings.

Thought I would put together a top 10 ranking of all the top OCE teams each month to see who can consistently stay on top and dominate the rest of the teams.



In these rankings I will only be taking into account results from tournaments that have been in the past 3 months. For the first ranking these include: Cybergamer Season 3, Auzom OCE/SEA Cup, ESU Invite/Open Season 1, PGI Offline Qualifiers and Cybergamer Season 4.



More recent tournaments will have more weighting on a team's rank than tournaments that are on the brink of being 3 months ago, as well as seasons e.g. CG/ESU will have more weighting than weekend comps e.g. PGI Offline Quals due to the top teams showing that they can be consistent over a number of weeks rather than having a lucky weekend. On top of this ESU Phase 1 will be worth more than ESU Phase 2 due to the length of the league being much longer.



As a final note these rankings are my personal opinion on where I believe teams sit in the region, don't kill me pls >.<



1st: Team Immunity (Nick101, Kasun, Cozyy, BiggyyJ)

Results:

Cybergamer Season 3 Season: 6th

Cybergamer Season 3 Finals: 4th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 1: 1st

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 2: 1st

PGI Offline Qualifiers: 3rd

Auzom OCE/SEA Cup: 5th

Cybergamer Season 4: 2nd



The lineup of Nick101, Cozyy, Kasun and S0matic put in major work over the past three months with only 1 placement outside of the top 5 solidifying their spot at the top of my rankings. With the recent departure of S0matic and picking up BiggyyJ to replace his position the lineup has a lot of potential to continue dominating however only time will tell if they are able to keep up their success as a team.



2nd: Grayhound Gaming (Zoidm8, HappyNoVitez, Luke12, Xtreme2G)

Results:

Cybergamer Season 3 Season: 4th

Cybergamer Season 3 Finals: 1st

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 1: 5th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 2: 2nd

PGI Offline Qualifiers: 15th

Auzom OCE/SEA Cup: 2nd

Cybergamer Season 4: 1st



Despite Grayhound losing two core members over the past couple of months with both Tuok and Onnii-Chan departing after the underwhelming performance at the PGI Offline Qualifiers, the team seems unaffected by it and are still managing to put up top placements in both the Auzom Cup and CG Season 4. With the addition of Luke12 and HappyNoVitez finally cementing his core position the team looks strong and is eager to take on the competition in the upcoming leagues.



3rd: Chiefs ESC (kritikalmotion, eDGe_Aus, P_For_Potato, Champzzzz)

Results:

Cybergamer Season 3 Season: 14th

Cybergamer Season 3 Finals: N/A

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 1: 7th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 2: 7th

PGI Offline Qualifiers: 1st

Auzom OCE/SEA Cup: 3rd

Cybergamer Season 4: 4th



The Chiefs are a hard team to place in standings with how awkward their results can be. One week they're completing demolishing anyone that stands in between them and victory and the next they'll be struggling to break top 8 in their games. I think I could say with confidence that if Chiefs were here to play the final week of CG Season 4 that they would have taken it out with the form they were in leading up to PGI in Berlin however, their results at the PGI qualifiers and Auzom Cup are more than enough to back up a top 3 placement in the rankings.



4th: SYF Gaming (Daak, M3rric, Krushhh, Ovtlier)

Results:

Cybergamer Season 3 Season: 5th

Cybergamer Season 3 Finals: 3rd

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 1: 2nd

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 2: 8th

PGI Offline Qualifiers: N/A

Auzom OCE/SEA Cup: 6th

Cybergamer Season 4: 5th



SYF have always been around the top of the leaderboards in recent competition however lack the ability to push it to the next level and place 1st for once. It was very hard to choose between SYF and Athletico for the 4th position however SYF's consistency is enough to put them higher for this months rankings.



5th: Athletico (Linksy, Neferhor, Heffaa, McClutch)

Results:

Cybergamer Season 3 Season: 10th

Cybergamer Season 3 Finals: 2nd

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 1: 12th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 2: 5th

PGI Offline Qualifiers: 6th

Auzom OCE/SEA Cup: 4th

Cybergamer Season 4: 6th



The Athletico boys have always been a force to be reckoned with as they are usually seen contesting the top 5 positions in all leagues. Since picking up McClutch they've started to look a lot better bringing in better results than their previous lineups and i'm looking forward to see how they perform in the upcoming tournaments to see if they've ironed out the kinks and are ready to start dominating again.



6th: Pathogen (Vasili, ResolveZ, Textil3, Chung1E)

Results:

Cybergamer Season 3 Season: 12th

Cybergamer Season 3 Finals: N/A

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 1: 10th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 2: 13th

PGI Offline Qualifiers: 10th

Auzom OCE/SEA Cup: 1st

Cybergamer Season 4: 3rd



A couple of months ago no one saw Pathogen as a major contender for the top spots in the region as their only real achievement was 2nd at ZIMO. But as we've seen for teams such as Immunity and Chiefs working together as a team and fixing issues will always prevail in the end and now they're looking like an extremely strong team with good placings in both the Auzom Cup and Cybergamer Season 4. All eyes are on these boys to see if they can continue their recent success keep the good results rolling in.



7th: ORDER (Ykikamucow, Electric, Ronon47, Insight)

Results:

Cybergamer Season 3 Season: 2nd

Cybergamer Season 3 Finals: 5th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 1: 9th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 2: 15th

PGI Offline Qualifiers: 2nd

Auzom OCE/SEA Cup: 11th

Cybergamer Season 4: 14th



ORDER are a weird team similar to Chiefs where they can either come out guns blazing or have mediocre performances. Although on paper their performances do not look too great, their comeback at the PGI Offline Qualifiers is enough to give them a place in the rankings with their previous CG standings as well. With the recent pickup of Insight aiding Ykikamucow in the calling for their team they have been looking much better and should be expected to start contesting top 5 positions in most the upcoming leagues and tournaments.



8th: Carnage Esports (Untaint3d, Sonny_, Defswontkillyou, Wolf_FPV)

Results:

Cybergamer Season 3 Season: 1st

Cybergamer Season 3 Finals: 7th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 1: 8th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 2: 9th

PGI Offline Qualifiers: 12th

Auzom OCE/SEA Cup: 17th

Cybergamer Season 4: 9th



Carnage had a strong start to the CG Season 3 however since they they've somewhat hit a wall and have struggled to break through and place highly. With missing out on top 16 in the Auzom Cup they're going to have to put in some serious work to fight their way through the open qualifiers to make the Auzom Premier League with the rest of OCE's top teams in order to keep up with everyone else.



9th: Kanga Esports (Proficient6, Ludoteo, Cetericz, TwoDeft)

Results:

Cybergamer Season 3 Season: 7th

Cybergamer Season 3 Finals: 8th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 1: 14th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 2: 4th

PGI Offline Qualifiers: 14th

Auzom OCE/SEA Cup: 9th

Cybergamer Season 4: 10th



Kanga have always been a team that shows up in every invite competition in the region however are stuck in a spot where they're better than the teams that juggle between invite and open and just aren't quite at the point where they're contesting the top teams for a spot in the top 5.



10th: SWAY?!/Ex-Ground Zero Gaming (MavGOD, Kebab_, NEXTHYPE, NZSnapShot)

Results:

Cybergamer Season 3 Season: N/A

Cybergamer Season 3 Finals: N/A

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 1: 11th

ESU Invite Season 1 Phase 2: 11th

PGI Offline Qualifiers: 4th

Auzom OCE/SEA Cup: 19th

Cybergamer Season 4: 7th



Finding a team to place in the 10th spot in the rankings was difficult however even with SWAY losing their IGL Acegun, they still hold core 3 and with the addition of Snapshot could make a name for themselves in the upcoming leagues. Similar to Carnage their poor performance in the Auzom Cup means they'll have to fight through open qualifiers in order to be reunited with the rest of OC's finest and prove they're a team to be feared.



Thanks for reading and i'll try to put one of these out either every month to keep them as up to date as possible. Any and all feedback on how to improve these rankings or what should be done differently is welcomed.
