I would be great. It is so hard to build up League teams because no one plays league, unless they are already in a league.

I wanted to build up a couple teams for Orca-Cola Cup Series and no one plays league. TV 125 TV 150.

Would anyone else like the option of moving Ranked teams to League or is it just me?

If that is the best answer then it's worth asking again Smile

I don't want it. It sounds evil and tainted.

Why can't you move your whinging to somewhere sensible people won't see it?

Because that wouldn't be any fun.

There is no need for that. Especially concerning the OCCS you just have to find those coaches who want to form their teams to fit in one of the TR brackets, too. The 25 TR steps are quite large, so it may be really challenging to enter with a team which is at the lower end or even has some missing players. But missing players will also occur in the tournament, and there is no way to escape it then. So why not enter with a temporarily weaker team?
The natural way to build up league teams is in a league.

When you already have good teams stuck in [R] or [U] doing nothing, it is a bit irritating.

Even a one week amnesty to get teams to the best division would be something.

High TR tournaments will struggle to get teams as it is harder to stay healthy in league environments. It is especially hard to get elf teams to play as they cannot get the recovery games.

Maybe they'll opt to play BB for fun instead of maximal utiliarity. So what if you have a few hurt players? It's called character!


(ok fine, I don't play in leagues)

More even games means teams are less likely to get massacred. So teams are less likely to drop out and ruin the fun for everyone.

Also, nothing but dwarves, orcs & khemri soon gets boring.

Some of us are still waiting for a reasonable explanation of why you can t transfer to L. Not allowing a switch from a more restrictive to a less restrictive league makes no sense. With the essential splitting of U into new U and L it s now almost impossible to get games in either.

So, seriously, some one show me where it was explained why you can transfer to U but can t transfer to L. Anyone? Anyone?
