Warrior General Games

This HB broke 42 tackles on 30 attempts. HTF am I suppose to stop a power back when I am in seasoned. Seasoned ladder games suck and make me not want to give a shit if I have no shot at winning.

DD, I thought you were gonna talk to Bort about combining tiers and fixing these ladder games?

I wonder how many GE posts I can find boasting about Drago running over lower-tier defenses when your other team was coming up. Sure sucks when the show is on the other foot.

That said, playing up 1 tier is expected. Most people start to complain when they have to play up 2.

They say that tackling helps. Just a rumor though

Yup I agree. My seasoned team has played pro teams back to back in ladder... I understand everyone has to deal with it, but holy fuck it's lame

What about your 247 KR yards. I am not happy about that. 19 mph wind, my kicker was gassed by the second half and had only 2 TBs when he had the wind. The one TB into the wind must have just about killed him.

Seriously, I don't disagree. Games like this doesn't do anything for anyone. I am not really sure what the alternative is. There isn't any benefit for a lot of teams by playing up or down and there is only one league of j-man, I would think it would be a really long season to play each other 4 times.

On the other hand, when the shits did beat a jman team you didn't hesitate to talk smack about it.

DD talked about consolidating Journey and Pro, which would help eliminate small tiers.

That probably won't happen for a couple seasons. Generally when something that big to the game gets put in place they give a heads up that it is going in place for season "x". So while that might be the plan eventually, I wouldn't count on it for at least 2-3 seasons from now.

They wouldn't tell us in advance. Remember archetypes in glb?

That change worked itself out. This is removing an entire tier. That's a huge move and unless everyone was active during the 2 days of off-season it would be crazy.

I would rather play 2 or 3 ladder games against the same opponent in tier than up a tier or down a tier

Well. I think playing up a tier is kinda good after a certain point in the season. It needs to be better scheduled. If you erased seasoned tier and brought the game to 5 levels you could really face teams one tier up and down at every level in the second half of the season. Like reserve a point before playoffs start where everyone faces up or down a tier for like 2-4 games. Then back to playing teams in your tier for the last 2-3 ladder games

It's worst at seasoned since you often play up a tier or two and at that stage the SP difference is huge. By journey you have a fighting chance, plus you can play up or down.

With more teams a strict one tier restriction would make sense. But that might not be realistic with such small tiers.

3rd pro team in a row....

This goes back to..... Seasoned sucks for Ladder! 1 tier jump should be a restriction.
