RoboMaster University Championship (RMUC)

Scoring and Ranking System

Introduction

Score and Rank Chart

Overview

The RoboMaster Organizing Committee has set up a Scoring and Ranking System for the RoboMaster University Championship and the RoboMaster University League, and released the RoboMaster Score and Rank Chart for universities (hereinafter referred to as "Score and Rank Chart").
Universities from Mainland China and those from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and overseas will have separate Score and Rank Charts. At present, the Scoring and Ranking System for RMUC and RMUL is only related to the Score and Rank Chart for universities from Mainland China.

As the main event of the RoboMaster University series, the RoboMaster University Championship has the highest standards in the number of participants, technical level and other aspects.
Tier-1 teams that rank top 72 in the Score and Rank Chart for universities from Mainland China and the 24 Tier-2 teams that have passed the all rounds of technical assessments are qualified for the Mainland China Regional Competition of RMUC.
The competition format of RMUL (3V3 Match) is similar to that of RMUC. Additionally, the rules of RMUL are relatively simple, requiring less robots, manpower and funding. The RMUL is open to all colleges and universities in Mainland China. Participating teams can accumulate experiences and scores to prepare for the RMUC.

Overview

Type of Team

According to the rankings in the Score and Rank Chart for universities from Mainland China, the participating teams will be divided into tier-1 teams and tier-2 teams. The types of participating teams will change with the rankings in each season.

Tier-1 Team
1. Definition: The top 72 teams in the Score and Rank Chart for universities from Mainland China. They are directly qualified for the Mainland China Regional Competition of RMUC once completing the registration. After passing the compulsory technical assessments (refer to "the RoboMaster 2024 University Championship Participants Manual for details"), they will have the priority to choose the competition site, to be selected as the seeded team, and enjoy more official publicity resources.
2.Participation Guide
① If tier-1 teams choose to register for the RMUC and pass all the compulsory technical assessments, they will directly qualify for the Mainland China Regional Competition of RMUC.
② If tier-1 teams choose to register for the RMUL, they can practice their abilities and win awards, but CANNOT obtain scores. In RMUL, awards for tier-1 and tier-2 teams will be selected separately.
Tier-2 Team
1. Definition: The teams that rank after 72 in the Score and Rank Chart for universities from Mainland China. They are the rising teams for the future RMUC.
2. Participation Guide
①Tier-2 teams that have enough technical experiences, participants and funding can register for the RMUC. After passing all the technical assessments, they can compete for the remaining 24 entries for the Mainland China Regional Competition of RMUC. If there are tier-1 teams that voluntarily waive their qualification for the Mainland China Regional Competition of RMUC or multiple teams that form an alliance, the resulting vacancies will be filled by tier-2 teams that have passed the technical assessments.
② Tier-2 teams can also choose to register for the RMUL (3V3 Match) in order to accumulate experiences and scores as well as to win awards. When their rankings rise to top 72 (tier-1 teams) , they will directly qualify for the Mainland China Regional Competition of RMUC.

Score Calculation Rules

The Score and Rank Chart will be updated at the beginning of each season (September - October each year). The final scores of the current season are calculated based on teams' competition results in the past three seasons. Scores for universities from Mainland China and those from Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and overseas will be calculated separately. Tier-1 teams of the current season will be determined by the Score and Rank Chart for universities from Mainland China.
The score calculation rules are as follows:
1. Current season (n) final scores = (n-1) season scores * 0.5 + (n-2) season scores * 0.3 + (n-3) season scores * 0.2
2. Some of the scores may be determined by the RoboMaster Organizing Committee, including top 4 of each RMUL site, group tailender and penultimate (if any) of RMUL/RMUC Regional Competition, all teams in RMUC Final Tournament.
3. For situations where 1 out of 3 teams in a group advances, 2 out of 4 teams in a group advance, and 2 out of 5 teams in a group advance, the score of the second-placed in the 3-team group will be equal to that of the third-placed in the 4-team/5-team group; the score of the third-placed in the 3-team group will be equal to that of the fourth-placed in the 4-team group and the fifth-placed in the 5-team group; the score of the fourth-placed in the 5-team group will be equal to the midpoint of the scores of the third-placed and the fifth-placed.
4.For other situations, scores will be calculated according to the following formula:
Suppose: In a particular RMUC Regional Competition, teams that rank Mth or above can advance to the Final Tournament; the score of the fourth-placed (group tailender) in the Final Tournament is X; the number of teams that can advance to the Final Tournament is Q; the score of the third-placed (group penultimate) in the Regional Competition is Y; the final ranking of the team that advances to the Knock Stage in Regional Competition but fail to advance to the Final Tournament is N.
Then:
The score of the N-placed = (X-Y)*[rounddown[(Q-N)/4]+1]/[[roundup(Q-M)/4]+1]]+Y
5. If a university participates in both RMUC and RMUL or in multiple stages of RMUC and obtains scores in a season, the final score of the university in the season will be subject to the higher score it has obtained.
6. If the final score has more than two decimal places, it will be rounded to two decimal places, but the actual ranking will be calculated based on the original value. If multiple universities have the same score, their rankings will be the same; when it is necessary to determine the accurate ranking, priority is given to score of the latest season; if their scores in the past three seasons are equal, the ranking will be determined by the average Net Base HP of all rounds in the latest season. The team with the higher average Net Base HP will rank higher.

RMUC 2020 Scores
RMUC 2021 Scores
RMUC 2022 Scores
RMUC 2023 & Later Scores

Example: If RoboMaster University ranked 18th in RMUC 2020 (online assessment), the last place in the group stage of RMUC 2021, and top 8 in the RMUC 2021 Regional Competition, the final score of RoboMaster University for the 2023 season will be: (22-(18-4)*0.25)*0.2+16*0.3+12.8*0.5=3.7+4.8+6.4=14.9

Notes:
1. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, the scores of the RMUC 2020 are calculated as per rankings of the RMUC Online Assessment, those of RMUC 2022 as per rankings of the Regional Competition, those of RMUL 2022 as per rankings of the RMUC Online Assessment and the number of participating teams in each site defaults to 24.
2. The above chart only pertains to the situation where 32 teams participate in each RMUC Regional Competition, 16 or 24 teams participate at each RMUL site. If the actual number of participants differs, the above mentioned rules will be used to calculate the corresponding score of each ranking. If irregularities occur due to insufficient number of participating teams, abnormal grouping, and undetermined rankings after the Group Stage, the RoboMaster Organizing Committee will adjust the calculation rules based on the actual number of participants.
3. In the 2021 season, only 3 teams from Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and overseas successfully participated in the offline RMUC Regional Competition, all of which were given 14.40 scores. There may be some universities from Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and overseas that cannot participate in the offline RMUC International Regional Competition. For these universities, the scores will be calculated based on the RMUC Online Assessment rankings. The score for the first-placed university is fixed at 14.40. If a team is ranked n, the scores of the remaining first-prize teams are 14.40-(n-4)*0.25; if the tailender of the first-prize teams is ranked K and the corresponding score is P, the scores of the remaining non-first-prize teams are P-(n-K)*0.125. In RMUC, due to the different number of participating teams in the Mainland China and International Regional Competitions, universities from Mainland China and those from Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and overseas will be ranked separately. If there are teams participating in different regions in the future, the scores will be converted according to a certain ratio (to be determined).
4. The score in the Score and Rank Chart will be bound to each participating university, not to the participating teams. If the same university has two teams participating in the past three seasons, the score of the university in the current season will be determined by the average score of the two teams; if there are both a representative team and a non-representative team participating, the score of the university will be determined by the representative team's competition results.
