Weekly Rankings Recap - 2/1/16

At the close of January the top ranks are clearly cemented thanks to the legacy of Tournament 63 and the new look Friday Night Fights. The unpredictability and diversity of FNF now that its open to the entire league is already self-evident, as the old advantage of the KFL sub-league begins to fade.

The biggest movers were in the Division 2 ranks. Banging, avenger45 and Philip94 all on the rise with good wins during this week's FNF. Also coming out on top were "The Greek Crisis" maxilos & proXade, whose campaign against the world started with Malaysia this week. The +2 win against neophyte pairing AbG & shin didn't come as a big surprise, but The Crisis' staying power at the top of the Duo Division is beginning to crystallize into something intriguing.

A sedate week in the rankings forecasts potential for change in February. The 21st will see the return of the Tower of Power at Supercard 75. The elimination format could provide the next big rankings shake-up if one or more individuals can take advantage. The entrenchment of FNF regulars also has the potential to break the numbers advantage of those already proven by Tournament 63!
