To make it easy, let's say the 2013 GenCon rules for team building and additional skills are used.

What format should such a division take? I imagine a facilitator to monitor tournaments would be required, so Swiss tourneys that kick off every Wednesday like Smacks & Brawls OR do it like Royal Rookie Rumbles where the tourney begins whenever a critical mass is reached? Would there be any reason not to have open play between tournaments or should non-tourney play follow another format?

What shape would the meta game take? What would be the builds to beat and the builds that everyone complained about?

These will be possible when christer has finished the league changes he is working on. For now we still have the rookie royal rumble though to tie us over Smile

As for the best teams, I would say in this rough order -

Undead, orc, wood elf, dwarf, skaven, norse, lame ass zons,Top tier.
All other elves, humans , lizards, chaos dwarf probably a couple of races I have forgotten.
Then chaos teams, stunties , vamps and slaan.
Finally ogres and underworld.

As there's a tabletop scene with rankings, there's no need to guess.
Not sure how to get rankings per race, rather than the race used by the individual top coaches though.

Only if you can cpomb them up . In this type of tournament it's not possible. Personally I think they are terrible. I would fancy my chance more with flings I think.

DE/CD are a top tier too.

I'd probably play this a bit, but I can't see it becoming something I'd play regularly. I think it'd be great for tournaments & rankings.
