Sorry I am a bit late with this, numbers are from the last day of season 14, I will update at some point in the preseason with the numbers reflecting roster changes and boosts.

Here is the traditional first look at the average levels around Alpha at the eve , with the standard disclaimer that level does not mean everything, but as per usual it might give an indication who might have to rely on better builds, tactics or all of the above to come out a winner. Of course in season 13 the eventual Champions Farmers were in second last position before the season ...

Second disclaimer, due to many veterans going into the decline at some point the averages somewhat reflect a teams philosophy, several seem to go with their veterans, probably for one more last hurrah, while others went young completely, and a few are running with a mixture of veterans and up and coming players.

The difference in average level from #1 to #16 from last season has gone up by a lot, from around 9.5 levels to around 20 as the Punks seem to be intend to go with an even younger squad than before. Outside the Punks it is just around 7, a decline back to where it was in season 13. These differences will likely go further down though once people start to boost, as the teams with the higher averages likely have more players on the roster that can't boost anymore this season.

All human players of level 30+ were considered for this snapshot, currently no team has players lower than that on the roster:

68.25 Seville Golden Eagles; 48 players; median 69; effective 932.9
68.16 Mississinawa Valley Blackhawks; 32 players; median 69; effective 933.64
67.08 Italian Stallions; 49 players; median 68; effective 940.93
66.27 Naples Purple Nurples; 51 players; median 67; effective 945.15
65.86 Toro Toreros; 42 players; median 67; effective 931.43
65.21 LUX Borg; 52 players; median 66; effective 964.17
65.15 Burnt Orange Rising; 21 players; median 66; effective 941.28
65.02 Belfast Brawlers; 50 players; median 66; effective 940.14
64.85 Parma Panthers; 52 players; median 65; effective 967.66
64.78 E-City Mercenaries; 54 players; median 66; effective 937.4
64.19 Tulsa Doom; 53 players; median 66; effective 954.09
62.75 Fareham Demons; 48 players; median 64; effective 946.89
62.70 Speyside Whiskies; 54 players; median 62; effective 984.95
61.46 München Zeebachs; 54 players; median 61; effective 914.48
61.02 Black Hand; 49 players; median 61; effective 922.16
48.96 Boston Punks; 55 players; median 45; effective 799.49

Recruiting certainly is still ongoing for several teams, so there will be some changes before the start of the season. Sadly it looks like BOR and MVB might not be able or want to field competitive teams though.

Chemistry difference is not as widely spread as last season either, while some teams are close to 100 already the lowest for the competitive teams is 59, still this could be a factor in some of the early season games if the right teams are matched up.

Yea, once day 1 rolls around the effective levels and stuff will be easier since people are currently boosting but holding sps which skews things.

I don't know the league that well but from quick glance at rosters and previous scrim records i think zeta might be a bit tougher this season


Interested in season preseason rankings though so i can get a better feel for the teams in this league

Yea, just from looking at last season's record, effective levels, the few open builds that were around day 43 or so, and bars zeta seems to have the better teams. I'd wager to say 4 of the top 5 teams in wepl are in zeta

You also are missing the actual level which isn't that uninteresting - even if the effective level is high, the actual level has bonus VP and maybe even additional EQ upgrades
The real strength of the players should be somewhere between actual and effective level - and the rest depends on the GMs

Like the last few seasons we have had one of the youngest teams in the league together with Speyside even though our effective level seems to look pretty good. 7th place would be nice but I guess we're aiming for an 8-8-0 season and could also end up with 5-11-0 or something.

The age difference is still there (at least this season)

Tulsa 11th, but third highest effective. A number of us still have boosts too.

Which is true for all teams, as I stated in the OP this is a snapshot from the last day of season 14
