So since we've established what the top three teams are, who would complete a top 10.

1 through 5 are clearly Valhalla, HHWC, Odessa, Hali, and Blaze in whatever order you personally choose. ESL and Asau are probably 6th and 7th with Korb and Hood at 8th or 9th, and then I guess Indy would be 10th.

Yeah pretty accurate, lowest I could legitimately place Hood is prob 8

BDS and Ballers still here and get a mention for longevity - Hedgehogs would too, if they could just stick around for more than one season at a time

Shockers and Venom were consistently good in the early days, yet seemingly always the bridesmaids.

I'm not sure the ballers have ever made the playoffs so no and I don't even know what bds is

Spiders and shockers would be in the top 20 no doubt

I probably wouldn't have said anything had you thrown hood in there but to add korb as well seems crazy. Through season 36 they were 143-97 in reg season. 11-10 in playoffs. One title. 2 conf titles. 2 conf finals.

Lincoln was 151-57 in reg season. 15-11 in playoffs. 3 conf titles. 5 conf finals.

Those teams belong in a discussion of National Pro, not the World League.

Korb was bad in the teens but one of the best teams in the s20s.

Fwiw the Hedgehogs have made the playoffs in 4 of their past 6 WL seasons. If people kept up with that WL wins thread, Hedgehogs would be top15 or likely top10 in total WL wins at this point.

Obv not in the discussion of this thread as the farthest we ever got was a CCG loss, but just sayin.

They won in kinda a weak season. Also that's a pretty hilarious description of all time great franchises.

Hedgehogs had 39 WL wins through S36, and have had 63 since than up to this point. So 102 wins total. You're right, more like top 25 total WL wins all-time, just by glancing at wins from s36 and the teams that have won since then.

I was surprised by how few truly great teams there have been in GLB history. You have the clear top five and ESL a notch lower at sixth, then a highly debatable mess.
