Kineticist’s take
NYC PinPod analyzes Pinball NYC schedule strength, revealing competitive imbalances across league divisions.
Synopsis
NYC PinPod hosts discuss the newly released Pinball NYC league schedule for the 2024 season, with Benjamin Furiga presenting a custom 'strength of schedule' analysis metric that compares teams' matchups against top playoff teams versus non-playoff teams from the previous season. The analysis reveals that champions like the Mutants have favorable schedules (score of 1), while newly promoted or struggling teams like Pinball Union face tougher paths (score of 6), though roster changes could significantly alter these calculations.
