Sorare Ranks Update #21 - August 24th, 2023
Care to help guide the next few months of Ethersport?
I’m toying with an idea.
One I’d love your help on.
This is my 21st iteration of these ranks, which provide a top 300 as well as 10 hand-picked values and overvalues to help with the week ahead.
As I look forward to the offseason and beyond though, I find myself wondering what the optimal structure would be.
What cadence is the best for rank updates without feeling flooded with data? How often might you want to see more of my old-school strategic deep dives?
Is there something else I am doing - or not doing - that could help you reach even greater heights?
I’m all ears this week, just reply to this if you are reading in your email or leave a comment at the bottom if you are on the app or web. I’ll be reading and responding to every suggestion!
Rankings
Pro tip: click or tap the top of any given column to sort the data. You can also search for a given player using the “Search in table” box.
Players with negative numbers in the “+/-” column are “Values”, while players with positive numbers in that column are considered “Overvalues.” Lastly, if the Google Doc was your best friend, you can still find it right here.
Please note: based on how the pricing data is pulled, some players have blanks in their +/-. This will improve over time as more and more cards continue to hit the market for each player and more data flows to the provider.
