REALLY?

Never thought you'd be an active advocate for the box Razz

Gonna stick to R myself, because my favorite teams are there. Didn't quite find that option in your poll.

But i am about to have your favorite teams deleted, due to the shift from lrb4 to lrb6, this will force you into the blackbox environment! and once you go black you never go back!

Have gone B, played 76 matches there, nothing wrong with it.

But I wanted to play my old teams anyway. I'm still hopeful that there will some way to keep a team, or at least the essence of it, alive in the client migration.

If they migrate to a LRB6 type R division, that's where I'll play. If I can only move them into a Box type thingie, then B it is.

What if you could choose whether your teams would go to R or B?

Well moving the picker infested [R]-teams into [B] would defeat the purpose [B] itself O_o so i doubt that would happen. But i understand your argument.

edit: this was a response to cloggy

What I mean is: after a possible reset when the new client comes. Teams start as new then, why not start as new in the Box instead of R?

In that case I'd stick with Ranked, simply because no matter how B is promoted, I expect an open play division to always remain the biggest on the site.

Thus more games, and better tournies.

[B] will change abit with FFB. TV being the new focus (rather than TS), as you can buy your inducements (and stars) after game is scheduled, while today [B] you have to make all purchases before you activate.

Anyway, [B] will be my pick for FFB. Maybe it gets the attention (tournamentwise) as it deserves. [R] wont change much, you'll still get to pick your opponent.

The new rules really lend themselves to varied opponents, so [B] and [L] are definitely going to be really good with them.

The only thing that really puts me off B is the elitist attitude, you see a lot of players saying that if you dont play B your a picker but it may just be that that coach doesn't really want to play khemri teams with 5 dps.

That being said I occasionally venture my may into the box but it never lasts long as I like to try and play a variety of teams rather than just orcs, khemri, chaos and dwarves all the time.
