Maybe those who are better than TheMarine should re-evaluate their own ranks. There's a bunch of players who have reached C- here, but many of them haven't even peaked, judging by their match lists. You're one of them. I'm fine with players who need to mass game to reach C-, and who can't get past 3500 points, that's roughly where the line was drawn. It really makes no sense though, to evaluate according to some arbitrary opinion about a players skill, and how he relates to other players, whose potential peak rank is pretty much unknown. If you look at who the successful players are in these leagues, most of them fall into this "fairly unknown" category, sitting at D+ or C- with iccup scores like 15-5, 15-10. Those are the players who should ask themselves if they really belong here, and if they're unsure, maybe they should find out. I have realized that certain ppl just wants to keep the core of this league intact, and doesn't care about how good the best players are, as long as noone is "too strong" in relations to the other top players, but if this attitude becomes the norm here, then a split into seperate D and C leagues is inevitable. | ||

But that would mean that we need some more players: kkyun25 hasn't contacted me yet. Voodooscience said in the beggining that he was more of a backup guy,and i haven't seen him post in the team chat,despite it being up for like nearly 5 days. Arca has some hand problem(skin) and it gets worse when he plays BW,which means im left with 5 players. When i leave(become a non playing captain) we end up with 4 players. By the way,Arca will play this season but he himself said that he will not be able to practice much nor play at that matter. This means to me that he will not be available for the first couple of weeks. Have fun everyone. | ||

Honestly if you look at His performance in DRIT and past DRTL, he is legit to play. Even in his games vs me in the captains league, my impression was (and has always been) D+/C- . When i play vs a C rank player its very different. If Marine is not allowed to play, then i suggest the 10 Elo rank players in this league should not play either. IMO The marine should be allowed to play, or else it would be ridicoulous, not dropping the real top players. There is rank, but also archievements in individual and league tournaments. Rank alone means nothing. What about people that don' t ladder then? This league is not anymore only D/D-/D+ rank players. So i suggest just going with the flow and accepting that, as many people are doing. | ||

To be honest i've never been any good in tours due to diffrent reasons.Also being honest im sure i can beat 90% of the league's players consitently. Anyways Have fun. | ||

As I said before, if captains really want to, they can always get together with Lmaster and talk about who is and isn't eligible to play in this league, but no one bothered to, so I'm assuming we're all going by the standard that as long as one doesn't actually hit C and is deemed decent/bad enough to play, then they're eligible. | ||

I think based on that site Lmaster and I are #1/2 respectively on that skill chart thing. only slightly below L3gendary others I cant really remember but I think kaigreene is one and sentenal maybe. | ||
