Hello SSL, welcome to the newest edition of the ELO ranking graphs, this one for after the 22nd season of the SSL.
* Be aware the 4 S19 expansion teams, and the 4 S22 expansion teams have a line of 1200 ELO’s before their actual current ELO ranking, this is because otherwise google sheets would not have them show up, it seems like every entry needs to have at least a value for X% of the graph total (for the total graph this is applicable from S12-S19/S22, and for the Major/Minor specific ones this is applicable from S18-S19/S22).
Total Sheet:
For the people who like it, not much to comment on as it is getting more chaotic and unreadable every season. However 1 interesting thing to note is that the per team difference between major and minor has decreased by 57 ELO, to 288.64 ELO difference per team, however this is mostly because expansion minor league teams often do better (and start with for the minor league above average ELO), compared to the major league expansion teams.

Major League:
In the Major League we see some shifts having happened, Sao Paulo having overtaken Reykjavik United to go top of the graph, and even setting a new record all-time ELO (post-season) with 1742.67, closely followed by Hollywood FC, who also overtook Reykjavik United to be the 2nd team in the 1700 range, Reykjavik meanwhile has dropped below 1700 and take the 3rd spot with 1663.1. Following Reykjavik we have a big gap to Schwarzwälder FV on 1469.42, followed by Buenos Aires on 1330.51 who overtook Tokyo, and are followed by Tenochtitlan on 1308.14 overtaking both Tokyo and Romana. After this we find CF Catalunya on 1236.07 overtaking both Tokyo and Romana as well, followed by new team Xelaju Cosmico on 1222.92. Tokyo, Shanghai, and Romana are then very close to each other on 1158.48, 1146.08, and 1137.29 respectively, with finally Liffeyside being the lowest major league ELO team with 1003.69 ELO. CF Catalunya was the biggest riser this season with 164.11, and the biggest faller was Tokyo S.C. with -178.51.

Minor League:
Now onto the Minor League where F.C. Kaapstad remains the number 1 team on 1363.58, however Paris has significantly closed down the gap and are now at 1349.53 ELO overtaking North Shore (and technically both expansion teams). In 3rd we then see Montréal United with their steady upwards trajectory bringing them to 1211.2 ELO, followed by expansion side CS Rova Mpanjaka on 1193.2, and Seoul MFC on 1169.87, then we get to North Shore on 1127.43, and Masques on 1110.93, Magyar follows on 1018.15, Krung Thep is on 981.52, Athenai has stopped their downwards trend going up to 822.77, and finally the last 2 we have London and Cairo on 668.89 and 651.13 respectively.
