Sorry, the site is a bit confusing there. Kills Commanded is actually a deprecated category - we had it for the S4 game but it's been folded into regular Kills for S5 (it just didn't happen often enough to be its own Roto category). I'll be working on a fix that more permanently removes the category. -nyan

If you have a low scoring team week in and week out, I don't think you should be able to move up in the rankings, right? You should have to have players that score points to move up. Roto scoring will keep it closer than raw scoring because the total points you can get for each category is limited by how many teams are in your league, but you still have to have points to move up in the standings. You're best bet might be head-to-head scoring if you want something to matter from week to week, but that also has its limitations because some characters can disappear for several episodes (i.e. Roose, Theon, and Ramsay so far) -wpearsal

wpearsal, it wouldn't be about moving up in the rankings if you have a low-scoring team. It would mean moving up in the rankings--just a BIT--if your team is the ONLY one scoring. Imagine if your team sucks through episodes 1-5 and then in episode 6, you score 5x what anyone else does in every category. Yet it barely makes a dent in raw stats and doesn't affect you at all in roto. I'm not saying you should win, but "winning" an episode should matter. -alicehanners

Clarifying a bit on Roto scoring - Roto Points *always* represent the current state for the season so far, NOT the current episode. So huge performances *will* be able to dramatically shift the standings, similar to normal Direct Points (but unlike the H2H leagues).

So alicehanners in your scenario:
TeamsA/B/C (3 teams) all score 3-5 kills per episode, from Episodes 1-8.
TeamD scores 1 kill per episode from E1-8, and is last place in the category so far.

At the end of E8, TeamA/B/C will have 4, 3, and 2 Roto pts for Kills. TeamD will have 1 Roto pt.

Then TeamD has a HUGE Episode 9 where they score 100+ Kills, enough to put them in 1st place overall for the season. They will jump 3 spots in the category ranking, and at the end of E9 TeamD has 4 Roto pts for Kills, A/B/C have 3, 2, and 1 pts.

Say E10 is a quiet episode and everyone has 1-2 kills, not enough to change the standings. In that case, TeamD remains in the lead for Kills, and ends the season with 4 Roto pts and wins the league (if Kills are the only category).

So for "it barely makes a dent in raw stats and doesn't affect you at all in roto", I think the opposite is actually true. A big episode can mean a huge standings shift in Roto and Normal Direct-scoring leagues. H2H is where it would be impossible to make a big standings shift (a win is still just 1 win, regardless of whether you win 18-15 or 88-15). -nyan
