PainState's recent league idea reminded me of one I had a while back, in which teams are made up entirely of Legend players. At the time, that would have needed countless builder matches to achieve. However, thanks to the new Custom Leagues, a true Legends League is now within our grasp.

Wait a sec, Anti... What do you mean?

With new custom rulesets, achieving a full roster of legend players is a breeze. Obviously, skill progression will HAVE to be unique, but what once took 10-15 builders can now be completed in 1 game. To achieve "Legend" status, all a player needs is 0 SPP.

But what's the point of playing, if everyone is maxed on skills? Well, for starters **Updated 10/11/16** Each player gains 4 skills after their first match. Not quite Legends, but certainly the cream of the rookie crop. And then, they continue to progress.

Super Star - 6 SPP
Legend - 16 SPP
Legend+ - 51 SPP
Legend++ - 76 SPP
Chosen of Nuffle - 176 SPP

Currently the league has a Custom Roster, available nowhere else. Warpstone Gorgers. What is this roster, you ask?

Gnoblar (0-16) 30k - MA 6, ST 2, AG 3, AV 6, Stunty, Right Stuff, Dodge (A access on normal rolls, everything else, M included on doubles)

Gnoblar Trapper (0-2) 80K - MA 6, ST 2, AG 3, AV 7, Dauntless, Dodge, Prehensile Tail, Regeneration, Stunty (AG access on normal, everything else, M included on doubles)

Warpstone Yowie (0-1) 160k - MA 5, ST 5, AG 1, AV 9, Always Hungry, Bone Head, Break Tackle, Loner, Mighty Blow, Throw Team-Mate (S access on normal, everything else, M included on doubles)

Ogre Gorger (0-4) 130k - MA 6, ST 4, AG 1, AV 9, Always Hungry, Frenzy, Throw Team-Mate (SM access on normal, everything else on doubles)

Re-Rolls: 60k

Other league rules:

*Money will never be an issue, each team starts with 1,000,000,000 cash. This cash will be for replacing players on the roster, only.

*Inducements, due to the previous rule, coaches are not allowed to transfer money into petty cash before a match. Thus, each team will be given 50,000 to spend on cards each match, and 150,000 to spend on all other inducements. The same Star Players will be allowed to both coaches, assuming they each choose the same star.

*Roster size, Seriously guys, this is NOT the league to min-max in. It's just not happening. Absolute minimum players on a roster is 14 (set by rule set), this allows up to 2 slots for Star Players, though I have a feeling most coaches would prefer a full 16 man roster.

*Overtime will happen, but only in the playoffs. These games are extremely challenging. They'll take long enough at 2 halves.

*Spiked Ball will be used in all matches. Our players are the best of the best, so the added threat of Ball! makes for a more exciting game

*Being that all players are Legends, ClawPOMB is being weakened. Claw does NOT stack with other skills to modify AV.

*Right Stuff negates Tackle on blocks

*Sneaky Git will act as guard on foul assists.

*Retiring of Healthy players is not allowed. Heck, these players are Legends, they deserve a death on the pitch. Exceptions will be made for stat losses on a case by case basis. If you have a player you want considered for retirement, then consult with the league commissioner (me) for a decision.


Recruiting: Seeking one League co-commissioner with knowledge of BB code,

Seeking, 15 coaches with plenty of free time on their hands, the goal is to set 2 conferences of 8 teams with a 7 week season. Ideally, I find 8 Euro timezone coaches, and 7 North American timezone coaches, and can split the league in such a manner.

All LRB rosters are welcome to join The Legend's League

Once a team is created, PM me and I'll work to get them into the league

Sounds like fun, but I don't want to commit to league play right now. Open scheduling works better for me.

Honestly, i just want to get to a minimum of 8 coaches, just to see how teams of legends work against each other, and to get a season in the books.

Ideally, I'd like 16 total coaches, and have a full league, but for now, I'm simply aiming to get this off the ground.

By the way, anyone interested can create a team via the link in the first post, and apply to join

So far, that gives 2 teams.
I've also created a Splatling team for building purposes.

I mean, cool idea, but you really should ban Nurgle. I mean that sincerely.

All legends nurgle is going to suck the fun out of life for everyone.

Why ban nurgle? The kill stack nerf should keep them in check.
