Since the only squad evaluation posted for this season was by a troll I figured I would post one. Hopefully this will spark other's interest to do the same. (Post for real, not troll)

 

Alphabetically:

 

Assassins


 

Looks like Assassins will be joining in this season after all. There is still a question of activity vs inactivity but they should still be able to field a solid 4. I suspect we will see mediocre interest in regular season and more interest/activity as the season nears playoffs. Dev and saiyan are the most active players but showing on Sundays is more important than regular week activity. Look for Nacre, Mop and kdak to show for some random sundays and help bring wins in. Sika seems to have disappeared so jury is still out on him.

 

Ideal Lineup: develop, saiyan, nacre and Mop

Full Sub: Kdak for whoever

 

Backarrow


 

Returning for a second season is a team captained by Arctos and mis-managed by Candyman. Backarrow has a commendable amount of activity, with Pracplane in full effect and euro pracs taking place on the daily. This team has some good individual players but relies heavily on Tunahead being on his A-game and Candyman staying in spec. I suspect this team will do pretty decent in playoffs - with some possible upsets. However, this all hinges on Arctos calling the shots and Candyman keeping his trap shut.

 

Ideal Lineup: Arctos, Tunahead, Plarep, Sabrewolf

Full Sub: Savage for Sabrewolf

 

beastfu


 

Teams like this spawn up every season, with sometimes good results....but not in the realm of winning. Usually they lose the first 3-4 matches they play then no-show. However, every once in a while a new guy is recruited to a team like this and becomes active in league...gets pretty good then transitions to a more stable team. That's the only hope I have for this team.

 

Ideal Lineup: Any

Full Sub: Any

 

discombobulate


 

Newly formed team for this season. I think they can do pretty well. Roster needs a little cleaning of dead weight though (wahini, frowzy). I don't know who McLaren is but he's doing pretty decent lately. RICKDAWGGGGG has had pretty exponential skill growth as well - that's been cool to see. Overall I think that if this team can level out and learn to play well together they can upset some people.

 

Ideal Lineup: Mindriot, McLaren, Joe Jr, Acidfreak

Full Sub: Pog maybe?

 

Dropships


 

Another newly formed team for this season which has bits of Port Llast and Alpha Reunion. The activity is questionable though, some of these guys come on for short stretches of time then disappear. I see this team battling discombobulate in a decent match. Their squad practices have gone ok, with mixed results. They will need a bit more offense though, Mighty Sven habitually backlobbing puts a wrench in any team's momentum.

 

Ideal Lineup: Plutorus, Harmchief, Mighty Sven, Pryde

Full Sub: replika maybe?

 

Ego


 

Jury is still out on Ego. bhang wasn't able to show up and they got crushed by Backarrow in the pre-season opener. They're definitely in need of recruits and could be deadly if they picked up one or two solid guys. If they can get more people they will be competing with Llamas for a semi-finals spot.

 

Ideal Lineup: bhang, pseudo, fedu and captor

Full Sub: Whoever

 

Llamas


 

This squad has always been a favorite of mine. I think it's because on any given Sunday they can upsets a good team. The only thing they're missing is one or two upper echelon players. Don't get me wrong, they have a lot of good players but they're all at about the same level. They're in need of a current player or a new player who can create opportunities and openings without flying out of control. I believe they're counting on this person to be Ghostbuster but he's either super rusty or lost his spark.

 

Ideal Lineup: Ghostbuster17, Nine, Psyanide, twista

Full Sub: Dagger, PP or CFK

 

Outlaws


 

So this is FTNguyen renamed but with a hint of stackage. With the addition of chrono and enforcer it's become clear that these guys didn't like losing last season. I think everyone knows the story here: Caer and Crescendo should stay in spec, Legacy tilts after early deaths, etc etc. Look for this team to be in the finals or knocked out in a close semi-final match. Oh yeah, and chrono is double-squadding.

 

Ideal Lineup: Village, King, chrono, legacy

Full Sub: eric clapton for legacy after first early death

 

StarFire Elite


 

I think we all know this story.

 

Ideal Lineup: Shikaa, Something Dutch, unfotable, mfa

Full Sub: scubie

 

The Dark


 

This team returns but took a page from Outlaws' book and added 9-volt to bring on the stackage. 3 guys from the Flawless starting lineup and 4 guys from The Dark starting lineup. GG. We shall see if they all remain active but this is another team that could get eliminated in the semi-finals or make it to finals. Oh yeah, and trouser ferret (chrono) is double-squadding.

 

Ideal Lineup: Da Douche, Blink, benji, trouser ferret

Full Sub: Jocker or Nadai

IDEA / suggestion for upcoming playoffs TOP #8 TEAMS:

 

(3 weeks of playoffs, 2 games/ sunday) 6 games /team -

 

#1 regular season team comes to playoffs with biggest point (say 32?)

#2 comes to playoffs with 24 points

#3 ....

#8 ... comes to playoffs with lowest points, but gets to choose their opponent first.

 

"Teams challenge themselve - Lower ranked team get to challenge and pick a opponent from themselves. Both teams points are put to play and winner gets half from the sum, which adds to their team points for the next round."

 

When 3 weeks have been played, we check which 2 teams have highest points and those teams play for the CHAMPIONSHIP.

Allow max of 2 times / teams to face on playoffs .If a #8 picks #1 2 times, and wins both, they raise on playoffs rankings VERY BIG!

 

Best of 3 FINALS,

 

The idea of this is to get as much playing to everysquad as possible, until the end. Maybe let those 3-8 ranked play for the 3-4 5-6 and 7-8 places out, based on final points (#3 vs #4 team with points, #4 vs #5...)

 

good/bad? This system would need to check good before implementing to league. iex. starting points of playoffs team based on # ranking.

hi everyone. didn't even realize this forum was even running... haven't checked back in so long.

i come in to chaos now and again 

just came back to say hi.

<div>The council has started discussing the possibility of a new pro map. Although most are reluctant I think we at least give it a chance to see what we can come up with and so I ask the public to see if there's anyone out there who is willing to produce a map that could be considered as a future league map.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>To get it started I have submitted two maps which hallu has put up in test arenas. We also have the maps that was submitted for a pro map contest in 2001 but most if not all of those where rejected by the general public. I have attached them along with my maps to this forum post if anyone is interested.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>?go 4v4arc1</div>
<div></div>
<div>This is a new map. It has a fair amount of open space and mostly familiar structures.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>?go 4v4arcwide</div>
<div></div>
<div>This is a rather old map, 2006 I think, that has been up and tested in prac arenas before.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If you are interested in making a map feel free to contact me if you need help getting started. If you are set on your own and want to submit a map, contact hallu and I'm sure he can help put it up for a test run.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Please use this thread to post comments about the maps. I will keep this updated if or when we receive new submissions. We'll let this run it's coarse and at the end of the season, if we have one or more submissions with a general approval, it will be taken up for further discussion in the council. If after this everyone thinks we should keep the same map we will try again in another 10 years.</div>
