CR broken?
Answer: No, but it's over-rated. |

Remember that CR is only a guide to the likelihood of a coach winning their next game. Not of overall skill over a long period. As such, someone using a team like this in a lot of their recent games is likely to win a lot and hence do exactly what the team name suggests.
It's not so much that CR is broken, more that people forget or misconstrue what it really represents. |

It is broken.
As a measure of actual coaching ability.
As a measure of e-peen?
Probably works ok. |

Yeah, they don't seem right.
You should not have legend status with a CR of 152..... |

No, it wasn't changed. That's what it has always been. |

A Legend with 35% win ratio and CR-152. Yeah something isn't working properly there. |

Although, the 164 CR coach could possibly have beaten a couple of high CR opponents and shot up massively in CR due to that, so low win% doesn't really matter.
The other one is a puzzle though. |

I've noticed you need to go above a certain mark and stay there for a few games to get legend status. Getting the points is one thing but you have to earn the status.
That's why some legend coaches can have a lower cr than superstars, and visa-versa. |

I still wish CR would just go away... at least from public view, if it is used in matchmaking somewhere, fine, just hide it. |

But keep the win rate% please. |

Unless I completely misunderstand the way it is calculated, it reflects the outcome of your last matches. If you managed to beat three legend/high CR coaches in a row, your rating goes up strongly. If you are a legend coach and lose four games in a row to an emerging star, it drops down dramatically.
Seems fair, no? Otherwise people with a flat learning curve could never improve their rating, if all the last 1000 games were taken in account. That's what win % is good for. |

I think CR should be called "Form" |
