The nearest teams in the power rankings, with a different reason on each card — six teams on one rating are rarely on it for the same reason. Rating decides who makes the list; where teams tie on it, the ones this team has actually cooked against come first, then teams at a similar point in their own career. KCBS doesn’t publish where a team is from, so nothing here is inferred from geography.
My meat.....your mouth has 1 rated contest — short of the five it takes to earn a power ranking — so this rating has barely moved off the 1500 every team starts on and 107 rated teams sit within a point of it. Read the list as the nearest company at a number nobody here has moved far from, not as a verdict on who this team belongs with.
One contest in common so far: too few to settle anything, but a team My meat.....your mouth has actually stood beside rather than a stranger on the same rating.
⚔ Head-to-head6 contests to 1: their number has had years to settle where My meat.....your mouth's is still finding its level.
⚔ Head-to-head17 contests and no Grand Championship yet — a rating made of 6% top-10 finishes rather than wins.
⚔ Head-to-headThey've been 1565 at their best, 60 points above where they sit today — they're arriving at this rating from above.
⚔ Head-to-headThey turned up 8 years after My meat.....your mouth did, first appearing in 2022.
⚔ Head-to-headLevel with My meat.....your mouth on power rating, which is the whole reason they're on the list.
