Premier League Pyramid
Filed under: Premier League
Seems like every time I take a break things start happening in Subspace. There's the whole Hockey Zone server move thing, the Warzone invitational and over in Premier League it looks like the staff are finally going to change back to a pyramid.
I've been calling for this for a while now and it looks like their going to use the system I suggested back on the old Premier League blog where you still have playoffs. You run the pyramid over x number of rounds then you take the top squads for the Pro playoffs, the second tier for the AML playoffs and the third tier for the AML playoffs.
There's still some work to do. 4v4 rules will have to be consistent now, although in practice that only means roster size and the subbing rule. Do we go with Pro subbing, AML/IML subbing or a new rule (say two full ship subs, then all subs are burned)? As for rosters right now in Pro you have a roster limit of 12, in IML it's 15 active and 5 inactive and in AML it's 20. Using the IML system through all of Premier would be a good compromise.
There's a lot of discussion and open threads about this on the Pro and IML forums. I hope that this time the staff go through with it and take their time to get it right rather than just start a new season. With beef bringing back his practice league there's something for squads to do until the start of the new season.
