RANKING ISTARI 2025

[Siraynad]

The Istari Ranking 2025 includes all tournaments organized by the Council of Elrond during 2025, provided that they are open to participation by everyone (that is, it does not include novice tournaments). Specifically, the tournaments that have been taken into account to prepare this ranking so far are:

Ringwraith Challenge 2025
Light vs Darkness 2025
Istari Challenge 2025
On Person Worlds 2025
Imladris Online Worlds 2025

The scoring system is the average of tournament points obtained in each game played (excluding the top 4 of individual tournaments; team tops, if considered, are counted with the corresponding rounds for each team (3 or 4)).

To see the complete rules, check the following link:

All modifiers, whether penalties or bonuses, are added at the end of the year, so that players can see how the partial result of continuing to participate in tournaments is going, and do not encounter a radical modification at the end of the year (since novices who maintain attendance will keep their scores).

In case of tied scores, the tie is broken by the total number of historical rounds played.

The result is the following:

1 Siraynad 5.93
2 Fisilva 5.16
3 Heiner 4.93

The competition was very close, so much so that everything was decided at the online Worlds, and two of those who made the Top in that tournament could end up as the best player of the year, and it was not decided until the last round. There have been several players with excellent performance, several new ones with excellent performance; it has been an excellent year for MECCG!!!!!

We look forward to seeing you all for the Istari Ranking 2026!!!!
