Custom Rankings
Bulk assign display ranking
The new tool is available in the Tools tab on the Active Team page. It lets you assign a specific ranking as the display ranking for all teams at once. To use it, you must first filter teams by a ranking preset.
If you find display rankings missing on team cards in your save, use this tool to bulk adding your favorite rankings at once. It should only take a few clicks to make them appear again.
New ranking
Added world rankings based on multi-year average Elo ratings for a more stable look at long-term team performance.
Competition Editor
Pot distribution
The new Pot distribution mode lets you control how teams are spread across pots when the numbers do not divide evenly.
There are two options: Balanced and Overflow to last pot. Swiss-style league stages use Balanced by default, while all other stages use Overflow to last pot.
For example, in the EU Cup Qualifiers, the Overflow option leaves Pot 5 with five more teams than the other pots.
If you switch to Balanced, teams are spread evenly so each pot contains 11 teams.
That said, Balanced may not work well for every stage. In the EU Cup Qualifiers, it can place more than one Pot 1 team in the same group. That is because there are 11 teams per pot but only 10 groups. To make it work properly, you would need to increase the number of groups to 11.
Seeding Rules
Seeding rules are now more flexible, with each rule split into separate Sort by and Sort order options. Previously, only fixed combinations were available, such as Seeding Value: Asc or Elo Rating: Desc.
Now you can configure the direction independently, allowing combinations like Seeding Value: Desc or Elo Rating: Asc. This lets you fully invert the seeding order, so teams like San Marino could end up in Pot 1 and France in Pot 5.
Interface Improvement
The editor has been reorganized into more tabs, including Seeding and Structure, to make the interface cleaner and easier to navigate. This update also improves the layout and fixes several bugs.
