The Luck Index
Every week, your score is compared against all thirteen other teams. The share you beat is the win your scoring earned. Add that up across a career and compare it to the wins you actually got, and the gap is schedule luck — no arbitrary cutoff, and no adjustment needed for scoring eras, because you are only ever measured against the same week's field. DaUnderdog has banked +15.9 wins they did not earn; HHH is owed 8.6.

What It Takes To Win A Week
Win rate by how much you scored. Scoring 100 feels like a respectable week and is in fact a losing one — teams in the 100s win barely a third of the time. The real break-even point is about 114. Across every triple-digit week in league history the win rate is 64.5%.
| Score | Games | Win rate | Record |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 80 | 447 | 9.4% | 42-405 |
| 80-89 | 368 | 18.8% | 69-299 |
| 90-99 | 495 | 30.1% | 149-346 |
| 100-109 | 595 | 35.3% | 210-385 |
| 110-119 | 596 | 53.4% | 318-278 |
| 120-129 | 450 | 69.8% | 314-136 |
| 130-139 | 369 | 74.3% | 274-95 |
| 140-149 | 302 | 82.5% | 249-53 |
| 150+ | 416 | 94.7% | 394-22 |
