Players by Position

ratings for the 19 teams registered for Team League Season V are based on opening day rosters and FIBS ratings from before any matches were played or as a new team enters .. bear in mind when scanning the player lists below the overall average player rating is about 1745

note also the median value (the mid-point in each list) exceeds the average by from 8 to 24 points at each position .. this indicates a skewing of player strength above that of the average player at that position - just another way of understanding the strength of the players at each position

but fear not, we all know that in any given match even with a 300+ point difference in player ratings the underdog still has about a 25% chance of pulling off an upset

Observe the fact that all three players from my team are on the 13th position !

Does that mean you should end up in 13th place?     Will be interesting to see if that comes true.
