How do you decide what makes a top list?
Our Hurghada team reviews match footage, official stats, and post-series interviews before ranking entries. Lists are built from what we've directly covered or verified against public tournament records, not speculation.
Are these rankings based on personal opinion?
Rankings combine analyst judgment with in-game data — draft outcomes, series scorelines, and roster performance. We flag when a pick leans more editorial versus purely statistical.
Do you update lists after new finals happen?
Yes. Several roundups, like our clutch-moments and comeback-series lists, get revisited each season as new finals footage and results come in from the events we cover.
Can readers suggest entries for a list?
We welcome reader input through our community channels. Suggestions are reviewed against match footage and stats before being considered for inclusion in an updated roundup.
Do your lists cover only recent tournaments?
Most focus on the current competitive season, but we occasionally publish retrospective rankings covering rivalries or roster moves from earlier circuits when they remain relevant to ongoing storylines.
