Zandronum competitive clan index

Originally this thread was the listing for all active clans in the community, but as it could only be updated by myself or a moderator, it was rather inconvenient as things actively change around here often. With that being the case, another good samaritan of the community started a wiki page to replace the clan index as wiki pages can be edited by anyone, unlike a forum thread. So you can now find the new competitive clan index on the official Zandronum wiki:

I thought RosKing & Beast lead R, or at least found R. Unless I'm mistaken .-.

RosKing & Beast did launch R, but according to Jenova R employs a leaderless democracy system, much like LF and PRO.

You should get rid of skill level.

I'm not sure if skill level is that unneeded that it has to be removed, I think it would let new people know what they should shoot for and what clan they could possibly fall towards, who to go to for gameplay advice etc.

Again, a good point not to remove the skill level , but then again , most people know eachother's skill level here in game , meaning the skill level is useless when you can calculate and estimate a clan level skill by knowing what members are in the clan. Sometimes you underestimate , other times you overestimate. The only way you find out it's like how you calculated is by scrimming that clan.

It's subjective, unless there is some clan tourney after which one could officially say "clan A is better than clan B".

Average seems like the lowest rating? That can't be right :/

I dunno, maybe a number would be better. If these really are all the clans that play competitively then average would be the clan in the middle.

Got a problem with the rating? clanwar one of the "higher" clans and prove it wrong then!
Edit: otherwise, sit down, drink some soda, it'll be alright

I think most of those rating are right and some probably a bit more fair than they should be, but I don't see anyone explicitly arguing which rating is "wrong".

The Idea is not for us who are already here, more for those who are interested in joining the clan scene who don't have an idea about anything clan-related.

I believe the rating is ambiguous enough that it gives new people an idea about where a clan stands in the grand scheme of things. It it's precise enough for people to say "Well it is likely that this High skilled clan can beat this Average skilled clan". If you get any more detailed THEN that is when it becomes far more subjective and harder to gauge, and really, there are so many factors why clans can lose against each other it wouldn't be worth it.

Average exists now because there are some clans not listed that are under the radar in terms of skill level. Numbers would probably be equally bad. How would the number system work? 1=highest 3=lowest? Though really if people get offended by the skill rating then instead of trying to get rid of it they should change it. I haven't frequented priv lately but when I last scrimmed I was surprised at how much better certain people got.

I couldn't agree more to these posts.
