You guys keep comparing regular league vs ladder. I’m talking about Elite only vs ladder aka what’s harder to accomplish and the challenge to finish elite league top 4 vs ladder top 4. In my mind, it’s easier to finish top 4 in ladder than elite league top 4. Hence the idea of a 3/4th game for elite league ONLY and trophies for 3/4th in elite league ONLY.

It’s okay to disagree. It’s a good discussion to have.

I think finishing top 4 in ladder is tougher because you might have a few teams from outside the elite that will have upsets or move up the ladder...and if you are top 5 in ladder, you are constantly playing top 15-10 teams in ladder AND if you are in elite league, you are playing elite teams. You pretty much never have a down game.

I also think that every team in the VET elite league should get some kind of trophy or badge. "Hey, my team has made elite VET league 10 times now!"

Ladder = Play EVERY good team and if your lucky and start low you get some easy games

League = Play whatever good teams are in your league and whatever slobs are in your league

Guess what....not EVERY good team is in "elite" so the top of Ladder gets even more stacked

Ladder > Elite League...although its a lot closer than it used to be before. It's really just the same pool of top 15-ish teams though.

You guys may very well be right but will circle back to this come late season. This is the 1st season with elite leagues and seeing how sophomore is playing out through a quarter of the season, the top ladder team is outside of the elite league.let’s see how it plays out after 3 quarters of the season completed.

Should be interesting on who the top 6 teams are in the ladder race vs who is vying for playoff spots in elite with only 2 games to play before playoffs are settled.

I think then we will have a better idea on who had the harder path and what was seen as the tougher test, top 4 of elite, or top 4 of ladder.

I mean....right now, 4 of the top 11 ladder teams are NOT in VET elite. That includes Kentucky and Frost Giants.

#1 team right now in Soph SHOULD be in elite though. Kvo just wasn't trying last season. Which is all the more reason that ladder is better. If a team is undefeated then they are worthy of that spot.

That’s why I am saying circle back to this 3 quarters into the season. A lot of people’s perception will most likely change by then as this is the 1st season with elite.
