We needed an "official" pre-season Power Ranking for the Strength of Schedule to be worth anything once we hit the regular season, so I slapped this together quick. It's nothing fancy... just simple math.

That said, this is not a subjective view of how well I feel each team is put together and how they'll fare in their schedule. And while I'm sure some teams would love to discuss how their team has a pending trade, or a commitment from a high-level agent, or that the starting lineup wasn't set, or that you're keeping slow-build players on for posterity... I'm not interested. Let's keep in mind that GLB is a silly little game and my unofficial Power Rankings mean squat. No reason to quibble.


What I did was took the current starting lineups and existing rosters to determine the average player level of each. The ranking for each category is behind it in parenthesis, and the overall ranking (at the beginning of each team line) was determined by adding the two rankings together... the lower the better. I used 60% weighting for the Starter rank, and 40% for the average overall Roster level rank, since most teams use their starting lineup through a majority of the game.

A 26th ranked team from A, after a questionable promotion from BBB, goes PRO? I think I'm almost done playing.

No kidding. Even we spanked them 44-7 and we have no business playing with some of these "A" level teams, let alone PRO.

I am more annoyed that a team with level 50s are now in our league, the question is whether they will actually fix this awful problem the support has been pretty weak

You could have recruited level 50's. Not our fault you decided not to or didn't have the contacts to do so.

Not to be a jerk, but did you ever notice how the world doesn't revolve around the Spider Pigs? If you had followed the thread you'd see that the discussion was about the team who would've replaced the Warsaw Gods of War, not your team.

Sensitive much?

He is a Nebraska fan, so that has to have something to do with it.

Careful, there may be other Huskers fans listening in!
