Looking for Captains for The New Freedom PvP League

I'll be a captain

i 100% agree with a shorter league 8 week max but would also be game for a 6 weeker.

I'm pretty sure I still PvP but fail to show up due to lack of interest. If this happens I may show up for a dUmb team.

Just a thought Dex. Maybe there are people interested in or at least willing to Captain but don't have 4-8 people they feel are decent they can get for their core group. Maybe start discussing giving some type of pick order priority for teams that form but don't have the core roster filled before hand?

Hmmmm....I just canceled my account....again.....which is up on the 6th of January. How is this league shaping up? Jonny played one league and he enjoyed it, very much in part to who was on Jonny's team, as they were extremely entertaining personalities, but the actual league was a blast too. I would consider re-upping for a couple months if a league is certain to come back to freedom. Is there a pre-forecast yet?
TIA

I'll captain an all Peacebringer team if I can get the bodies. Will we win? No. Will we have fun? Yes.

I'll be a captain, but was wondering....if it can be a smaller format than 14 players per team...i'd prefer to have more teams competing than to have less than a handful of teams. 8v8 is great but 6v6 or even 5v5 is just as fun as long as there are lots of team.

I agree with b witched on pretty much all counts. Core of 4 should make it more even, even if one is still clearly the best. It'll also get more involved.

Id rather not be a capt but I'm happy to give opinions when the rules are being hammered out.

also if you want my ****** blaster/emp/stalker, I may or may not play for you depending on whether I like you.

Dex you're ******* fat.

tru dat vex, just thinking 6 is on a high end where you potentially get to many good players on one team - then even with a bad position in a draft you potentially end up with 4 more good players and 4 meebies...

With core of 4 - there is a higher potential the people you pick are people who you want to play with maybe not all the people you want to play with..but at least 3 - and draft rounds you pick up people you think are good or have potential.

Even if you go draft (which i am sure you would not Vex :P - ) odds are there are at least two teams you would want to be on and play with..

reason I say 4 over 6 is - 4 is a good solid base for a team - beyond playing with friends or whomever - but still puts you at a place where you have to build and use others for a solid 8v8. 6 not so much if you have 4 good blasters and 2 good healers - all you are really worried about at that point is getting people who either are decent at either or have stalkers to hide on..(i realize i am generalizing)..

but...u am right -- at least see if people can pull together multiple teams of 6 first..

I agree that four's a good format. A good base of core players to mold your team to.

If your concern isn't numbers, as in captains able to field the original six, but rather stacked teams that remove interest, I can see it as a possibility. Still, I'd rather play with my friends. I'm okay with drafts as supplements, but I'd rather bring an entire pre-constructed team 'cause I'm tired of baby-sitting. Doesn't matter, 'cause that can't happen now.

Still, I'm still thinking six is a good balance, with not too many players but enough so your core can be your friends or just solid.

If circumstance dictates and less would help the growth/success I'm still fine with it, but I think I'd need to see more legitimate concerns. If the interest was only at this level, but another League wasn't currently running; I'd be more inclined to agree now.

Regardless of the format, I'm pretty sure teams are going to be stacked no matter what.

So, with the idea of letting people who want to stick together do so, would a 4-6 man pre-draft roster be fair? It could factor into the order of how teams are drafted. Teams of 6 could give up there first and/or second round draft picks until all teams have gotten the same amount of players.

Eh, just throwing out some ideas.

I never find losing fun.
