CEVO Performance Index Explained
We've been getting quite a few questions about the CPI in the last couple of weeks, so I've dug up an old news announcement that explains the system in detail.
CEVO has developed and released the CEVO Performance Index (CPI), a mathematical formula for calculating teams’ overall performance during the regular season. CPI is carefully constructed to take into consideration all the important factors for seeding teams in the fairest, most unbiased way possible.
CPI is calculated using six components:
1) Point Index
2) Win Percentage
3) Strength of Schedule
4) Margin of Victory
5) Opponents’ Strength of Schedule
6) Head-to-Head Modifier
Point Index is calculated based primarily on the number of wins. Forfeit wins grant teams partial points, as do overtime losses.
Win Percentage is a straightforward calculation of a team’s wins versus losses.
Strength of Schedule is determined by averaging the Win Percentage of each of a given team’s opponents, minus the match between that team and that opponent.
Margin of Victory adjusts the value of a given win depending on the difference between rounds won and rounds lost.
Opponents’ Strength of Schedule is determined by averaging the Strength of Schedule for each of a given team’s opponents.
Head-to-Head Modifier takes head-to-head match-ups into consideration by providing a small bonus for beating higher ranked teams and applying a small deduction for losing to lower ranked teams.
If you have any questions about the CPI, feel free to post them below and we'll do our best to address them in a timely fashion. Keep in mind that some of these components become more accurate as more matches are completed. So by the end of the season, CPI will be at its most accurate.
Thanks,

Chi!
It's way overthought to a point where it doesnt actually depict the top teams
Keep it Copacetic
We had some bugs with the CPI that was causing the standings to appear out of whack. We've taken care of these bugs now. I think that you'll find when all the matches have been reported at the end of the season, and the CPI is at its most accurate, it will certainly depict the top teams.

Not sounding cocky but still do not understand this CPI..

If you played weak teams or good teams with weak schedules you will be ranked lower than someone who has had a strong schedule the whole time. (think college power rankings)

If you go 8-0 firstly you won't be all playing crappy teams since the teams your matched up against are based off CPI. Teams that have similar CPI are matched up to play each other. So if you do go 8-0 you'll be up there.
The system works well the way it is.
Good morning, I wonder why my team and Fuzion-Sports is set below Zero Talent Gaming, last won epicenter map and tell them all tickets and all earnings lost my team has won more tickets and much less tickets lost, please help me clear this up.
In any tournament:
Fuzion Win Tickets: 680
Fuzion Lost Tickets: 612
Zero Talent Gaming Win Tickets: 427
Zero Talent Gaming Tickets Lost: 1018
I can not understand it, yet we won the last game of the Zero Talent Gaming.

I love jesus
Pretty lol that my team won 16-13 and 16-14 and we're considered top open by CPI...? I know there are teams out there 16-0ing open kids who deserve main but have lower CPI than we do, and it doesn't make sense at all.
