[Meca Ranking] It seems the top 10 of the 'Seven Knights Re:BIRTH' (hereinafter SKRB) siege battle is seeing an influx of ambitious new guilds, with two fresh names making the list this time around. The upper echelons are in a constant state of flux, and even the very top has been shaken up, with 'Senabusinessclub' staging a comeback to third place. Meanwhile, in the individual rankings, players in the top 5 have hit new high scores. Here is the breakdown of the guild content rankings for the 4th week of June.

Senabusinessclub back in third

Here are the top 20 rankings for the SKRB siege battle and advent expedition for the 4th week of June. Senabusinessclub, which had slipped to 9th in the previous tally, has reclaimed its 3rd place spot, causing a ripple effect across the top 10. Additionally, the 'Romanticism' and 'Small Sister' guilds have entered the top 10 for the first time. Both are performing quite well, and I for one am curious to see if they can maintain or improve their standing.

In the interim tally for the Advent Expedition, 'Siege Battle' holds 1st, followed by 'Romanticism' in 2nd, and 'Yeonine' in 3rd. Romanticism is clearly proving their worth across both modes. While it is only an interim report, they look well-positioned to finish in the upper ranks. Senabusinessclub was sitting at 6th, so we shall see if they can hold onto that when the final results come in.

All top 5 individual rankers break the 100 million mark

This is the individual score ranking for SKRB in the 4th week of June. We saw our first 100 million point player last week, and that number has surged to five in just seven days. The elite group includes 'Jjukttang', 'weeds7', 'Mother', and 'Dae-ral-go-gi', all of whom share the commonality of being part of the Siege Battle guild. With those below 6th place also hitting 99 million, I suspect the entire top 10 will break the 100 million barrier by next week.

Siege Battle results by day, 4th week of June

Unlike the upward trend in individual rankings, the overall scores for the siege battle have seen a slight dip. Excluding the 'Castle of Hell' on Sunday, the top scores for every other castle have fallen. The 'Castle of the Guardian', which previously broke 400 million, dropped to 394.33 million. While some top-tier users improved, it seems likely that others either saw lower scores or opted for the 'free sweep', which grants 90% of the previous record. The latter seems the more probable cause.

Siege Battle Pick of the Week

For magic siege battles, the meta typically revolves around a 'Protection Formation' with 'Nata' in the rear. It is the solid choice for most top-tier players. However, the 100th place ranker at the Castle of Podina caught our eye by opting for a 'Balance Formation' instead. They kept the core lineup of 'Biscuit - Nata - Lina - Miho - Chloe' but shifted 'Miho' to the rear, presumably to squeeze out every bit of extra damage.

Back in the day when 'Luri' was in her prime, the Balance Formation was all the rage. I honestly thought it had been relegated to the history books after the Protection Formation became the gold standard, but this proves it is still a viable path into the top 100. If the Protection Formation isn't helping you climb the ladder, perhaps now is the perfect time to give the Balance Formation a cheeky try.
