Astralis risks missing IEM Katowice 2023 due to ESL rating recalculation
According to the portal Dust2, the Danish team risks missing IEM Katowice 2023 due to the recalculation of the ESL rating. Tournament operator ESL reportedly retroactively changed the regional weights of some tournaments last night, resulting in a reallocation of the EPT to some teams. In particular, changes in scoring have affected the Evil Geniuses, Astralis and paiN Gaming teams.
The organizers have increased the impact of the Cash Cup Series championships that were played in North America, thereby changing the approach to scoring points for their rankings. As a result, the new scoring system raised the paiN Gaming and Evil Geniuses teams in the rankings, which overtook Astralis and got excellent chances to go to IEM Katowice 2023.
It is noteworthy that earlier ESL did not pay attention to the Cash Cup series, as it qualified the championships as a "springboard" for young players and small teams. However, several tournaments have been played in North America over the past month, two of which ended in victory for Complexity Gaming.
Probably, due to the abundance of large teams at such championships, the organizers increased the proportion of events in order to eventually redistribute the number of points awarded. At the time of publication of the material, the ESL tournament operator did not comment on the information that appeared.
