Our producer Colin Martinez went through and recalculated season 7’s final standings should season 8’s point system be used, and the results are interesting. Korruption would still win the faction championship, but Finstock Exchange would jump up to second, surpassing S.W.A.G. by a point. The Burning Droogs would have finished with only 7 points.
Here’s his calculations:
1. Korruption – 79 points
2. The Finstock Exchange – 60 points
3. S.W.A.G. – 59 points
4. Roxstars – 54 points
5. The Quirky Mercs – 43 points
6. The Usual Suspects – 18 points
7. The Den – 16 points
8. The Dungeon – 15 points
9. The Burning Droogs – 9 points
Ranked by points difference:
1. The Finstock Exchange: +10 points
2. Korruption: +8 points
3. Roxstars: +4 points
4. The Quirky Mercs: +2 points
5. S.W.A.G.: -1 point
6. The Burning Droogs: -3 points
7. The Usual Suspects: -4 points
8. The Den: -7 points
9. The Dungeon: -7 points
Ranked by position changes:
1. The Finstock Exchange: +2 positions
2. The Usual Suspects: +1 position
3. Korruption: No change
4. The Quirky Mercs: No change
5. The Dungeon: No change
6. The Burning Droogs: No change
7. S.W.A.G.: -1 position
8. Roxstars: -1 position
9. The Den: -1 position
Edit: The original calculations were based upon Ethan Erwin having played all of his matches as a member of the Usual Suspects, when his first match was as a member of the Burning Droogs. The calculations have been corrected.
