Best of the Triple Leaguers

[Divine Rides]

secondary discussion could be "which player is the best 3 leaguer?"

[ZeUs!!]

I'm 99% sure its someone on Incuria

as hard as it was for Melee with all the wannabes that left the squad during the season that made it at struggle...

id still like to point something out, even at the risk of being flamed here

in TWLD we finished 5th in our conference out of 8 and 11th out of 16 teams

not great, but not the worst either lol

in TWLJ we finished 7th out of 8 and tied for 14th out of 16... not much success, but again, finished the season and didnt finish last

in TWLB we were last in our conference, but not last over all in the league...

sure it was a dismal season.... and some of the wins were from forfeits and against replacement squads, but u know what... thats part of the league...lots of other teams got wins against replacement squads too, and lots got forfeits...

i respect the guys that had the balls to show up every week...... i know it doesnt place us in any caliber...but for respect...these guys get top notch from me

At the moment, Vihta is the man.

A-S is obviously superior in all three leagues stfu gg!

[Awesome]

respect is all well and good, but i'd still like to see the leagues shortened to 12 teams per league to get rid of most of the squads who don't have a chance like British Squad, Avalonian, Melee, Tanked, Slash, AseVoimat and Verone. It would probably mean far less squads dropping out and probably atleast 1 capable replacement squad is ready in TWDD/JD/BD if needed as someone to fill in.

Lol, lol, melle, you're only win is a forfeit game and that is why you are not last. I think melee should be tied last in TWLD with us

[Awesome]

hey atleast they showed the right number of guys every week? can u say you had 5 playing every game?

[Nethila]

Lol, lol, melle, you're only win is a forfeit game and that is why you are not last. I think melee should be tied last in TWLD with us

lets see..
melee beat bs, bs beat ava
doesnt that mean melee > ava?

[Bosshawk]

some people like kings just spout off without actually checking facts....

just food for thought

right now as leagues expand more people get interested and excited about twd and its build to TWL....

u reduce the amount of teams in TWL and u reduce the amount of players playing....

that means u actually lower the excitement level because less players have the potential of playing in TWL.....

u dont have to have 16 competitive squads to make the league perfect

u will always have squads rebuilding that are still willing to show up every week for the learning experience to build on for the next year... and thats not neccessarily a bad thing....

lot of recycling of players in this zone the last year or two, and lots of new talent coming in.... reducing squads, in my opinion will discourage and restrict new players from excelling in the league

i disagree with this. there are some squads that have no interest in getting better and the same people will just continue to suck season after season

however, the more squads that are in twl the more people get exposed to it.

i started out in twl 2 seasons ago on a depleted melee. plague rabbit and the big names that we had when the squad formed had left, and a few of us stuck it out.

being on a subpar squad meant that i got playing time. this also meant that i got experience, and got better. on a personal note, i think i have gotten better each of the 3 seasons i have played, and i think that this is a trend across trench wars.

i also think that you will see that more than one of the people who were on avalonian, melee, tanked, elenya, etc will play bigger roles on better squads next season.

i also think it was a mistake to lower twlb to 14. i don't think that the best 14 squads got in, and i don't think this encourages improvement in the general skill level of basers in trench wars. after all, only 112 people play twlb on a weekly basis, and i think that there are far more capable players.

Next season, all conferences should be 16 squads. I like giving the opportunity for more people to play. There should be enough competition by then in basing too.

Edit: All leagues, not conferences, of course.

[Awesome]

so you propose 32 teams per league?

the reason i keep suggesting 12 teams per league (and get rid of conferences) is because that way you make leagues 11 weeks (then add additional weeks for makeups or whatever) and every squad faces every other squad once. it works out perfect. and plus theres the obvious reason which i've mentioned before also that you get only competitive squads, i mean hasn't basing become more interesting with 12 competitive teams this year + sk8/melee games which no one is interested in. you take out sk8/melee from that league, it becomes 12 teams and every game is an interesting one (to basing fans atleast)... same concept applies in ld/lj... cut it to 12 teams and every game becomes something that fans can enjoy and makes the league more fair to all participants, even if there are a few less participants

My bad, 16 per league of course.

And I must say, you're idea isn't bad either.
