It should be 6v6 with an option for 7v7 or 8v8. That can make it so people with smaller groups can still play. Rosters can be limited to 12 or 15 (so better chances 6 will show up).

straight up disagree.
small matches were the reason the i13 ladder became so formulaic.
whenever we did 8v8s and masterminds came out to shut down stalkers, and aggressive therms became part of the lineup, the game became a lot more interesting.

not saying you can't do 8v8, just making it easier for other groups to get a pvp team together. I think I know of maybe two groups of peeps that can field 8 (and the people I know it's a definate maybe to get 8 on at the same time).

I agree with barrier here. I also revise my prior statement to say I'd like 20 person roster caps so I can have more rookies.

Fielding 8 shouldn't be as much of an issue if we get practice schedules going. I can get an 8v8 going within about 5 minutes simply by spamming tells to randoms in RV.

The problem with allowing a match range like 6v6-8v8 is that you will get teams that know they will lose an 8v8 (Not going to mention anyone in particular), and claim that they only have 6 online.

Barrier also hit it right on the nose. 5v5/6v6 is very two dimensional these days.

lol getting 8 people from rv to fight your team is not the same as practices against sg's/vg's with people of any level of skill.

either way..not really here to argue. If you want to run a freedom pvp league set it up, post the rules and see if folks sign up. glhf ... all that.


p.s - having 8 on is not an indication that people will actually do an 8v8, when you get a team who knows they will lose and claim thier "good" 8 players are not on line (not going to meniton anyone in particular)....

The point is: SGs should be able to get 8 if I can grab 8 randoms from RV and get them to do an arena match when half of them don't know how to access arena terminals.

If 8 can't happen we will have no choice but to do smaller matches. If smaller matches really are needed, then, by all means, the ladder will promote smaller matches.

What we need to do is contact people who can genuinely get SGs together. We should have at least 4-5 SGs ready to go before we start a ladder of any kind - or that ladder will be very short lived.

One roster has 75% of whats left out of the old test crew that still plays the game or has any interest in pvp. This should be interesting.
