Chaos Index: build your own

Build your own index

This table ranks the competitions by disorder: how far the game gets out of hand. Five ingredients go in, measured as rates rather than totals: cards, red cards and penalty goals per match; comebacks and late goals as percentages. For each one, a competition is scored by its rank, from 0 (the lowest) to 100 (the highest). The index is the average of those scores. The article gives all five the same weight; here you can see how much the order depends on that choice.

Weight

Each control is the weight of one ingredient in the average: Normal counts once, Double twice, Triple three times, and Out drops the ingredient from the calculation. Everything starts on Normal, as in the article, and the Equal weights button takes you back there.

Competition

The number before the name is the place with your weights. A (3 of 5) next to the name shows how many ingredients went into the calculation; the rest are on Out or have no data.

Your index

The index, from 0 to 100, worked out with your weights: the higher it is, the more disorder. The table runs from the highest to the lowest. No index means fewer than two ingredients went into the calculation.

Article rank

Where the competition sits in the article's table, with equal weights. The arrow shows how many places it has climbed or dropped with your weights.

Try it: if disorder to you means red cards, set Red cards to Triple, leave the rest on Normal and see who climbs. Keep at least two ingredients on any weight other than Out.

Nothing here is saved and nothing forecasts a match: the table is of competitions, from games already played. Data extracted on 2 October 2026.
