Unlike ZoneRank or GosuGamers rankings, the system behind the G7 rankings is accessible to all so teams can calculate how a win in a particular tournament will affect their ranking.

The ranking will also introduce a decay system with teams losing 8% of their points per month. For events to be included in the ranking they must be a LAN with a top 10 team (from the G7 rankings) attending and it must have a qualifying process.

With this new ranking, organizations will be able to:

#1 - Know exactly where to place in a tournament to retain their current positions
#2 - Predict possible outcomes of a tournament
#3 - Create more accurate seeds
#4 - Know which events are the most competitive and therefore more valuable

The current standings for the G7 rankings are:



The G7 have also applied their ranking system to 2003-2007 and you can check those out as well as how the points are determined in the G7 news item.
