THE FOLDY SHEET

The foldy sheet is a physical implementation of a binary tree representing the full set of every possibility of the outcome of a regular LCS season, and is used to determine who's made playoffs, who hasn't, and how many scenarios in which team X makes it.

This program works for all riot leagues supported by Panda, which is most of them.

Requirements: Python 3.8, pipenv

HOW TO USE:

  1. You'll need to get a key from PandaScore so you can get the league data: https://app.pandascore.co/signup
  2. Put it in config.py, and set the slug for the league you want to evaluate.
  3. pipenv shell
  4. Run python foldysheet.py to generate every possible result.
  5. Run can_they_make_it.py, then either 'locked', 'eliminated', or 'maybe'.

Locked and eliminated are self explanatory. Maybe will tell you the number of scenarios in which a team can make it. Since every region has its own tiebreaker rules, this does not tell you how ties are solved. A scenario in which a team is tied will count both as a possibility and tell you who's tied. You can then apply your region's head to head rules to fix it.

NA tiebreaker rules are included - comment out the lines that call tiebreaker(possibility) to not apply them.

Configure the playoff lock position in config.py, by default it is set to 6th place, because I wrote this primarily for LCS. Technically it can work on any esport that deals with BO1s and is on pandascore, it also works for BO3s, but playoff elimination rules may be different based on win-scores (2-0 vs 2-1) so YMMV.
