Iliad All Stars
Week 1 Recap
Nvjend Gets Robbed, Radiogirl19 Reigns Supreme
Week 1 of Iliad All Stars delivered exactly one number that matters most: 1.50, the margin by which Radiogirl19 survived Nvjend in a game between the two best teams on the slate. Everywhere else, bench mismanagement did more damage than any opponent — HailMaryZukin buried 35.60 points on the pine, and pobenauer somehow won a game while grading out as the fourth-worst team in the entire league by all-play record. MobBossAlexis put together the week's cleanest demolition, FoolessClue found the basement immediately, and the Houston Texans defense turned in a performance so bad it deserves its own investigation. Buckle up — if Week 1 is this chaotic, this league is going to need a hotline.
Awards of the Week
MVP of the Week
135.66 pts
Highest scoring team this week
Radiogirl19 leads the league with 135.66 points, powered by Caleb Williams' monster 37.26-point outburst. Setting the bar this high in Week 1 makes Radiogirl19 the target on eleven other backs starting immediately.
LVP of the Week
78.36 pts
Lowest scoring team this week
FoolessClue's 78.36 points is the worst score in the league this week, and it wasn't particularly close. Welcome to the basement — try not to get too comfortable down there.
Blowout of the Week
won by 33.52
Demolished TouchDownSeagal
MobBossAlexis obliterated TouchDownSeagal by 33.52 points while playing a near-perfect 99.02%-efficient lineup. That's not a win, that's a statement.
Nail Biter
won by 1.50
Survived against Nvjend
1.50 points was the entire margin between MVP glory for Radiogirl19 and Hard-Luck status for Nvjend. A preview of just how thin this league's margins can be.
Overachiever
All-play: 4-7-0
Won their matchup despite a losing all-play record
pobenauer won on the scoreboard despite an all-play record of 4-7-0, meaning in a vacuum this roster loses to seven other teams this week. Enjoy the 1-0 record while it lasts, because the math says it's borrowed time.
Boom
37.26 pts from Caleb Williams
Highest individual player score this week
Caleb Williams dropped 37.26 points and single-handedly kept Radiogirl19 alive in the closest game of the week. Franchise-cornerstone stuff in Week 1.
The Matchups
Trkimmell played this one like a chess grandmaster, leaving a microscopic 0.10 points on the bench for a scorched-earth 99.92% bench efficiency en route to a 27.76-point beatdown of ShotgunJackson. ShotgunJackson didn't lose to talent so much as to decision-making, stranding 8.80 points on the bench that could've made this interesting. Week 1 optimism in Jackson's group chat is already dead on arrival.
ShotgunJackson left 8.80 on the bench (92% of ceiling) · Trkimmell left 0.10 on the bench (100% of ceiling)
pobenauer beat FoolessClue 106.02-78.36, but don't let the scoreboard fool you — an all-play record of 4-7-0 says pobenauer was actually one of the worse teams in the league this week, just fortunate enough to land across from the only team scoring worse. It gets funnier: pobenauer started the Houston Texans defense, who delivered a humiliating -1.00 points, while Jaxson Dart sat on the bench and quietly dropped 26.60. Add in 26.18 points stranded on the bench (80.20% efficiency) and this is less a win than a heist pobenauer barely got away with.

Heretoplay1 cruised past HailMaryZukin, 125.50 to 106.56, but the real story is Zukin's bench, which sat on 35.60 unused points at a putrid 74.96% efficiency — the worst lineup management in the league this week. Heretoplay1 wasn't exactly airtight either, leaving 18.40 points stranded at 87.21%, but when your opponent's bench outscores their decision-making that badly, the margin barely matters. HailMaryZukin needs to check the projections before Sunday kickoff, not during the two-minute warning.

MobBossAlexis delivered the week's most complete beatdown, burying TouchDownSeagal by 33.52 points while operating at a near-flawless 99.02% bench efficiency and stranding just 1.30 points. TouchDownSeagal, meanwhile, left 25.80 points on the bench at a shaky 79.24% clip, the kind of mismanagement that turns a loss into a full headline. Bring a knife to a gunfight, then leave half the bullets on the bench — that's a Week 1 masterclass in how not to compete.

The league's two best teams collided and it came down to 1.50 points, with Radiogirl19 escaping 135.66-134.16 thanks largely to Caleb Williams' league-best 37.26-point outing. Nvjend has to be sick about this one — an all-play record of 10-1-0 says Nvjend was statistically the best team in the entire league this week and still walked away 0-1. Both teams played nearly perfect lineups, 97.96% and 97.21% efficiency respectively, so there's no bench excuse here — Nvjend just got run over by the schedule.
Nvjend left 2.80 on the bench (98% of ceiling) · Radiogirl19 left 3.90 on the bench (97% of ceiling)
DJGG handled Jely71 comfortably, 116.16 to 88.36, even while leaving 14.30 points on the bench at 89.04% efficiency — sloppy, but Jely71's anemic output made it a moot point. Jely71 also left points on the table, 11.40 at 88.57% efficiency, meaning both sides showed up with a half-cocked lineup, but only one team scored enough to survive it. Jely71 opens the season near the bottom of the standings and needs more than tighter bench management to fix a scoring problem this severe.

All six Week 1 winners sit atop the standings on points-for tiebreakers, with Radiogirl19's 135.66 leading the pack, but the real oddity is Nvjend parked at 7th with an 0-1 record despite scoring 134.16 — the second-highest total in the entire league. Schedule luck already looks like the defining storyline of this season.
The Bottom Line
Week 1 gave us a legitimate classic in Radiogirl19's 1.50-point survival over Nvjend, and a genuine tragedy in Nvjend still walking away 0-1 with the league's second-best score and a 10-1-0 all-play record to show for it. MobBossAlexis served notice with the week's cleanest blowout, while pobenauer snuck out a win riding a bench hero and a -1.00 defensive performance that should be studied in a lab. FoolessClue and HailMaryZukin both have serious work to do — one on scoring points, the other on remembering which players to actually start. Next week, somebody's luck evens out, and it had better not be pobenauer's.
