Team building leads to conscious or subconscious cherry picking. Making it harder fro me to do that is a good thing.

If your concern was conscious or subconscious cherry picking, Black Box was the solution.
There was no need to wait for BB2020, which, unlike Box, will kill team building, not just make it harder.

Perhaps that means Christer will do the same with the daft rebuy value. Laughing

A wiser man than me said in a podcast: Thats part of the rules now. It cant be avoided, like Boris Johnson as Prime Minister.

I am a player. I will play on... (Take it and make the best of it)

It should be called Spam League.

It's as Secret as it needs to be. Wink

Thanks Matt.

By responding, you're helping to spread the word. Mr. Green

The seasons will be more generous than the "Competitive" division.

The O[L]C will have no seasons at all.

it's probably less spam than say, making a blog post every time a player gains some spp though

With the new ruleset incoming, will there be more or less legends?

Less. Random mvps, seasons budget, retention costs.

Yes, but less SPP required to get to Legend, especially if full random.

Could be some very funnily skilled "legends" out there soon! haha

Does this favour those who can play more games? If you go full random, and play enough games, you could end up with a very tasty player early on

The fact is, after 15 games you are "encouraged" by Season Redraft to fire the skilled players, so even if you play 15 games per day, you will have to retire some.
A Legend with all random skills doesn't look like a player you would keep for the next Season.

But if the random skills you got were the skills you wanted (because you played lots of games and recycled players until you got a good one). You would keep them a few seasons as they would be tv efficient vs chosen skills?
Lots of ifs and unlikely fringe cases there

yeah, assuming you want skills from at least 2 different trees (and usually i'd guess its 3 for a legend), honestly you'd need to play thousands of games to get even close to perfect random legends. which isn't realistic even for a player like BillBrasky, let alone the rest of us
