SEA seems more top-heavy than the rest to me.


yea SEA is very very top heavey... there are no reason for half of those teams to be competitive in AAA much less in Pro.. it hurts me to say that


which is why i was suggested that bort creates a minor-world league, which sounds totally lulz but tbh i'd rather be playing against nairobi, the masterminds, bonn, and all these other top pro teams for a full season, even if it means we're not back in the WL next season. instead we get this:

where we do nothing on either side of the ball and win by 100.... and then while you guys are slugging it out we can gameplan all day all week all season for our tourney games, which almost isnt fair:

at the end of the day, slashing like 4 of the pro leagues and just doing away with regions makes the most sense imo. otherwise it's just another level of the game where competition is lulz, and how is that good for the game longterm?

yea i agree, we need to knock down a few regions, down t 4 or something.. GLB isnt as big as they think they are, no need for so many Pro league with only about 200 or so active members

Yea, i remember you posting that. I'd be for it. Pro CCG losers and demoting WL teams go to that league. Would be a place for top notch teams that had bad luck in WL or ran into a coin flip against another elite Pro team in the ccg to have a fun season. Honestly is not going to be fun if alpine goes back to wepl. Don't know what conference we'd be in but other than us, speyside, korb and the loser of warsaw/bonn ccg it'll be pretty boring. Maybe 1 other team will step up but still will probably by those 4 in the ccg.

Don't know how it'd all work with other promotion/demotion rules but you're right in that it'd make the season more fun for the good teams. I mean, good god. What's gonna happen if ESL falls to CRR in the ccg? 2seasons in a row of that shit


But yea, we need to slash 4 pro leagues big time. Simply not enough worthy teams. And even for the non-elite pro teams in those 4 leagues, it'd actually be an accomplishment to make it to Pro like it used to be back in the day

yea pro sucks right now, its not even worth having, take the top few teams from each region that dont make it to the w/l and put them in their owner region.. this is just getting stupid..

The extended plateau should straighten that out.

Season 18: twice as many level 72 players
Season 19: three times as many
Season 20: probably 3.5 - 4 times as many, since dots in first year of decline will still be as plausible as before

How is it going to straighten out how poor pro is? Unless you're assuming all the builds and coordination in pro will improve as well. True that not having to do quite as much recruiting will help the lesser teams but it also helps the good teams so it's kind of a wash there

yea it will help alittle, but there is more of a coordinating difference between Pro and the W/l, than a player difference

50/50 probably, but yeah the point stands... extended plateau isnt going to make people better gameplanners, and while a team here or there will emerge as contenders... taking that next step, nowhere near enough people are doing this for 8 pro leagues.

i blame the addicts collectively lowering the glb IQ.
/zing

i've kind of gotten away from the minor-wl idea, only because it adds another wasted season for those legitimately good teams moving through the ranks waiting to get to a competitive league. less is more.

Yea, just having 4 pro leagues would probably make it better and less complicated. Would improve competition in pro and AAA. But there are a ton of poor building/coordinating agents who want to get a team that finishes 12th in pro every season and just say "i'm in pro" and they'd be outraged that they're suddenly not pro worthy.

I think most pro teams are still under 1100 average player value. Over 1/2 are probably below 1050, and there are actually some that are still below 1000.

In some cases there are Pro coordinators that are also coordinators for WL teams.
