Hi, my game is multiplayer only so I'd like to store leaderboards by team instead of by player. Is that possible in PlayFab? Would I create a special "Player" for each team and store the results that way or would that lead to complications?

We'll be adding a guild/clan solution later this year which will include things like guild/clan leaderboards, which I believe will solve the case you have in mind. While technically, you could create a bogus account and write stats to it, there are a few issues, there. The most basic would be that if there were simultaneous updates to that account's stats, only one of those updates is going to succeed. But in addition, bear in mind that any MAU-based pricing you have (such as our current upgrades) would be affected by this, since any API call on behalf of a given user in a month counts towards that month's total MAU.
@Brendan .. How can we add a team to a leaderboard in the latest version of PlayFab using the Entity Group? I see the documentation that this is possible to add Teams, People, Entity to Leaderboards v2 .. Do you have an example to show this?
