This is the most dominate team in Semi-Pro Elite. Their Current highest level player is level 65(Will be 66 on Sunday). Since game exp stops on day 30, I would project that they would reach level 67 by end of season, at age 236(remember these are legacy players). So they will start in "Regional Pro", at around level 70.

Right now "Regional Pro" is made up of all the teams that are age 240+, but did not make Pro last season.

I think that it would be a good idea to push all players who are plateau into pro leagues, and expand the number of pro leagues if we have to.

Putting lower level teams against higher level teams, is just a recipe for a crappy season.






ok so if they reach 67 at seasons end, you next season wait till 69 which is like 10-15 days max and boost to 72 then problem solved..

like i said earlier

"tbh most the 79 builds in reg. pro aren't that great. No one with a good 79 build will settle for reg. pro"

This suggestion (even corrected) isn't necessary. Regional Pro just isn't that competitive -- it's where old dots go to decline and bad dots play out the string.

Because well built teams can immediately be competitive in regional pro and even national pro. The team I OC in WEPL promoted from semi-pro last season and is in the hunt for a home playoff game. People just need to stop asking to be coddled and only play against dots the same exact age as them.

This cannot ever happen for one main reason. If you cap regional pro (which i assume is what you want, should have changed all your instances of "national semi-pro" to Regional Pro in your OP) you will have thousands of players without a home. Regional pro is a holding tank of all players that have reached the end of the age capped leagues.

Whether people think that those players that aren't good enough to play in pro/wl should be retired or whatever, people created the players will likely want to be able play them out to the end of their career. There has to be a place where people can go once they are out of capped age limits.

I realize that a decent team could get stuck in regional pro longer than they want if they get into a really tough league or get out leveled the first season in but it's the only way they can do it and give teams a chance to move to pro as quickly as their team is able. Sticking more levels in between to help make a softer landing into uncapped will just slow down teams that are competitive enough to make it to national pro leagues asap.

We had this issue in the past when they rolled out the uncapped minors. I don't think we have as many sandbagging teams hanging around to beat up weak teams as we did in the past. Used to be that teams coming out of level 31/34 capped leagues could get dumped into them and face teams with level 70's.

So -1, this isn't going to change.
