How the heck did that happen
Forum > Goal Line Blitz 2 > Our 12-6 journeyman team drew a 10-8 Veteran team stacked with Superstars
Journeyman rank 82
Veteran rank 63
Within 20.... check
Journeyman can play vet.... check.
Don't see an issue here. Just how it goes at times.

Yeah, and if you can scout out a weakness and pull out a victory you'll enjoy a massive gain in the ladder...they're the 63rd best team for a reason.

they tanked every season except built a decent team midway through last... still unfortunate. One age group is beatable, 2 plus Vet bonus? PFFFF

It was a good game though right? Corndog said the purpose of 1 global ladder is to get competitive ladder matches.
I don't agree this is the best thing for this game, individual tier ladders is the way to go considering all the ego and forum banter and build pride (who built the best?! There can only be one!). This game is being robbed with matchups like the one you mentioned. Sorry you played an auto vet team. win or lose. Looking at your spot on the global ladder. Chances are you will continue to whip on inactive teams from below which is boring.

WCW has played 2 vet teams and lost both times giving us 2 out of our 4 losses...

The first one was winnable but the second was a laugher. So I take it back. Maybe Jman should just be playing Pro/Seasoned. The 2 tier difference seems to be impossible to overcome and it just causes the a stagnant ladder IMO.

I just don't like the argument 1 global ladder is there to force decent ladder games when people could be playing same tier teams near them in their own ladder. It's even better way to get closer games.

And I assume there are zero cares for where your lower tier team stands in the overall game. Unless you are TxSteve.
I think 9/10 agents would prefer to know where they stand against their efforts to build a team, build dots, and gameplan within their tier. And what's wrong with playing the same team at the top maybe 2-3x a season to fight over a trophy? Sorry coaches actually have to change their strategies up and out think their opponent. I would think that would be fun to try new things to beat a rival, or to anticipate a different game scheme in a re-match. It's just....all so missing from this game. It exists in division rivalry play and playoffs, but people want to know they are the best team in the tier, not what # they are globaly in glb2. Am I wrong? Anyone but TxSteve please answer.

Steve normally was for playing other tiers because other than MMA any other team wasn't any competition. And I mean no one was close.

Ground Assault's eating losses to upper tier teams in Seasoned. I'm fine with it. It's interesting to see how much we can push the ladder ranking as a seasoned squad. Right now it'd appear a finish somewhere in the upper 70's overall is probably the ceiling until we get into Journeyman.
