Iām down to support this, including OP, recruiting captains, players, and helping host when available.
That said, I recommend we only launch once multiple MMR arenas are ready. Right now, we're limited to one MMR game at a time, or two separate queues in different arenas, which limits flexibility. MMR v1 showed us that multiple skill-based arenas made it easier to run competitive games and attract new players. Many have voiced the want for that infrastructure back.
šÆ League Purpose
To grow the TW zone and bridge with other zones (Chaos, Hockey, Extreme Games, Death Star Battle, Powerball, Warzone) by offering semi-competitive play, while giving new/mid-level players (6-7.5*) space to dominate, improve and try different ships.
The objective would be: you show, you get a chance to play if you're a new player from another zone, TW Pub or lower rated player. Whether for your team or another.
