Let's face facts. There are less and less teams in GLB2. Ladder games after Soph are massive inter-tier mismatches until Vet.

Quite frankly, having 5 seasons to get to Vet and then 2 (Career boosted 4) seasons is too short.

So what seems like a radical idea makes sense to me.

End Pro. After Journeyman, move everyone to Vet. Add an additional Vet season to a player's base.

This will create 4 seasons of career growth with 3 seasons of Vet play.

This will clearly take some coding changes so you'd probably have to plan the idea far in advance.

Which is why you should also consider dropping a 2nd career growth season and making Vet a 4 season base. That would be 3 growth seasons and 4 Vet seasons.

With less teams, we need more compression of the tiers. It's just the state of the game.

I like it. Pro tier is a wasteland.

Drop rookie. Go straight to sophomore. Add the 3rd Vet season.

yea for sure. 100%

Pro is boring, and we need more time at peak. Career boosts are just a money grab imo

This is actually a very good suggestion. The only drawback is that level 20 teams will struggle until around mid-season against level 25 teams. That said, I think its definitely better that the current state of the Pro tier.

Something along these lines. Rookie is turrible.

Great idea.

Would be fun to have vet loaded with quality teams

If they went 3 Growth seasons and 4 Vet seasons, then the only "bad" matchup their would be the 3rd Growth Season. I'd skip Seasoned and Pro.

I think most people could live with one bad Ladder tier out of 7 seasons. It's a lot better then the current Seasoned-Journeyman-Pro hell.

Oh, and thanks for the props on the suggestion.

I'm dreading when my team reaches Pro.
Seasoned is already a wasteland, and with more teams dropping off, I'm worried all of our ladder games are going to be against vet teams once we reach pro.

This needs to happen.

This is getting further from feasible. I doubt they would be willing to change anything that changes costs associated with the game. Leaving boosts in place in the first two veteran seasons could help.
