Teams over 1150: 3
Teams over 1100: 1
Teams over 1050: 7
teams over 1000: 4
teams over 900: 4
Teams over 800: 9
Teams under 800: 1
Total teams over 1000: 18

League #2
Teams over 1200: 1
Teams over 1150: 4
Teams over 1100: 11

Teams over 1200: 2
Teams over 1150: 1
Teams over 1100: 3

Looks like your League is pretty weak. You are going through a lot of effort to convince us otherwise. With only 13 teams over 1000 and zreo teams over 1200, that's not that strong after all. League #2 is the toughest League followed by League #1 then League #5. League #4 is the weakest, and I'd say it is a toss up between League #6 and League #3 who's weaker after League #4

When you look at many of these teams rosters with high EL's, they have only 30 or so players. It's kind of deceiving.

Yeah, it's a ball park guess. But the whole premise when they moved to age based Leagues that eventually they boosters and non-boosters would begin to separate the older teams got. Just last season half the Elite League was ULU teams, and it seems this is still happening. It's not fair to them. I don't have a non-boosting team, so I don't have a dog in this fight. However, It really isn't fair to them at all.

Conversely I would say it isn't fair to those people who pay good money to boost their players for x number of seasons just to get put in a league where there are only 4 competitive teams and the rest of the season is a gimme.

As has been said the whole point of the cloud system over the pyramid we used to have was that teams should even out so that everyone had competitive seasons regardless of boosting/level/build quality. To spread the teams out randomly like this defeats the entire purpose of a cloud based system.

I have battled on in Elite #1 for my teams entire life knowing that I would never win anything but had fun trying for the occasional upset. I could have thrown some games and gone down a level to win there but I didn't, because I thought that the leagues were being ordered due to ability, and I think for the most part they were. However I also knew that once we hit the 'Pro Cloud' that we would be unceremoniously dumped to the bottom of the heap with a bunch of level 50 players...but it just didn't happen.

Simple fact is these leagues are not scaled from Elite downwards, they are just a bunch of leagues all with wide ranges of teams in them which means that if you're lucky you'll get half a dozen competitive games next season, and if you're not lucky you will only get a couple. As a non boosting team I still pay money, I own the team and I play anywhere up to 20 scrims a season. I believe I deserve to have as good an experience as possible in GLB. For those that boost their teams this is even more so and while some people might enjoy going 20-0 with no risk of loss regardless of settings I know a hell of a lot more people who like games to be competitive.

This age should be re-ordered.

Theres no rhyme or reason what Bort and Company do with League sorting. Its as random as the sim, you pay to see what comes down the toy chute!

You won't be on this list. When we are both at plateau and even ground, we'll be in Advanced AI, and I am guessing you will still be here? We are making the move next season.
