It’s the question on everyone’s mind – are Pro Elves too brittle to be considered a serious team… are they just a novelty act? The “third stunty race” as they have been called by some! Lauriala Vinetree has questions about her own team’s ability to survive – but she’s wants to prove her team’s athletic superiority over the Dark, Wood and especially those haughty High Elves by competing in Season XIII of the E.L.F!


Pro Elves are easily the least popular of the Elven races. Disparaged by many as being too slow, too brittle to be competitive. It would be madness then to even consider playing them against the likes of dwarves and orcs and such on purpose… wouldn’t it?

For Season XIII the E.L.F. has revived some ancient accolades for those Pro Elf teams that show the athletic superiority of professional elves upon the pitch:
  • Golden Gloves Award (1) – awarded to the Pro Elf team with the greatest positive touchdown differential among reported games.
  • ‘Pro’ Hall-of-Fame (?) – any Pro Elf team completing the cycle will have their name etched inside.
  • Banner of Division (0-5) – will hang at the stadium of any Pro Elf team to win a category.
  • Trophy of Lombardi (0-1) – Bestowed upon the Pro Elf team to win the overall E.L.F. title.

Pro Elf teams playing up to a professional’s high standards will have these special honors conferred upon them and have their names forever enshrined upon the E.L.F. group page.


“Insanity,” you say? Perhaps not. Check out this list of ranked pro elf teams sorted by games played. Take note that the top 3 teams are all members of the E.L.F. – over 600 matches between them. And the top team, Glory Daze, won the overall E.L.F. title in seasons IX and X.

So, maybe it’s not madness? Are you up to the challenge? Hurry up and apply with your Pro Elf team and see just how much punishment you can take!

Elves of all colors/races are welcome and encouraged to join (This whole "Pro Elf thing” is just a clever marketing ploy) - still recruiting TR100 rookie teams. Most teams play in Ranked where matches are easier to find, but teams playing in Unranked, League and Faction are also welcome! Each season lasts for just over 2 months and coaches can play as few or as many games as they choose - you can even replay any matchup until you "get it right!"


Season XII will kick off on May 1st, 2007 at 12:01am (bbtime) and ends promptly at Midnight on July 7th, 2007! And this season the scoring will be fully automated - our good friend Java will do all the work for you! Check out the E.L.F. league page for more information and to join up (with any elf race).

New coaches are welcome!

"No Teef" Tomassino would like to announce that Coulda Been A Contenda are tossing in the towel. Erh, not in surrender, but in, you know, the spirit of we want to get in on this action.

No Teef has been punched in the head a lot, so forgive him his lack of fancy wordsmithing.

well, finally I've made a new elven team and it's joining, of course.
Dark Elves
...and I'll demonstrate that Pro Elves are too brittle, that Wood Elves are too brittle, that High Elves are too brittle and that other Dark Elves are a long way too brittle
...
WAHAHA
HA
