ISML 2018/RS Male

This page contains every male regular season match in ISML 2018, the initial seeding matches of the first period, and all wildcard rounds.

2018's regular season is split into seven periods. All periods are split into groups of 6 contestants in a single round-robin format - each player plays all other opponents in their group once. A character who manages to survive the entire regular season will play a total of 35 matches (7x5).

Who faces who? - Schedules of every contestant in a given group:


 * 01: 06-05-04-03-02
 * 02: 05-04-03-06-01
 * 03: 04-06-02-01-05
 * 04: 03-02-01-05-06
 * 05: 02-01-06-04-03
 * 06: 01-03-05-02-04

Characters will be ranked by the following criteria:
 * Points (3 for a win, 1 for a tie; a loss adds points based on [Your votes / Opponent's votes] )
 * Wins
 * Head to head record (H2H) within period only
 * Total √VF - Square root (√) of every round's votes (VF) within the period only, added together.
 * In other words, a contestant's votes in a given round will be square-rooted (type √x on a calculator and substitute x for number of votes earned). When the period ends, these square-rooted values will be added together to find the Total √VF.
 * This wiki will use "Total √VF" because the editors deem it more appropriate for what it's actually supposed to represent. In the ISML website, it's displayed as sqrt(VF), which might be mistaken for "squirt".
 * The remaining criteria, VD (vote difference) and Staff selection, are practically useless in this case since Total √VF is impossible to be tied.

Seeding round
Top 52 nominees will play together in one approval voting match to determine the 8th-60th seed that will decide Aquamarine's groups.


 * 1st-6th seeds were already reserved for 2017 pendant winners, arranged by their final position.
