This looks like this could be cool, but yeah, the two glaring things that need to be changed are the are the playoffs, and the scoring system. You could do a couple of things for the playoffs:

You don't want to have 28 teams in the playoffs, that's way too much. Maybe to start, take the top 2 from each division, seed them 1-4 east / 1-4 west based on points. Play bo5s for two rounds, bo7 for the championship.

As for the points, do not use .5 as your scale, that will get way too confusing. Keep it simple and just do a point per game, no bonuses for winning the match. If you wanted to do an all-kill format, then maybe you can start throwing bonuses in there for streaks & all-kills. Still keep track of the games for / games again and matches for / matches again records, for tie breaking purposes.


This part is probably more for the future of the league:
It would be cool if people would really commit to this; you can have each team play within their division twice (home/away), and every other team outside of their division once. In that format, it would be 38 matches per team. Play two matches a week if possible, and then determine your playoffs from there.

Thanks for your feedback! Like Richard said earlier, this is just our first season and is much of a 'test season' than anything, but we will definitely reconsider the point system.

We got this team CT, NY only has 5 more GM players than we do, that ain't nothin!

But seriously, I'm pretty excited. The first scrim we had was way fun, it's great to feel like a team.

Is there like, an official pre-season or is it just going to be random matches we as teams set up before the regular season begins?

That hype video looks amazing. Alberta wins ezpz, especially with noobs like ZaiZai and Wannabe on the BC team. Seriously, who would ever want them on their team?

Not sure if I wanna cheer for MA, CT, or NY... if only NH was playing

So are there any sponsors or anything or is this just a pride thing? Cause it mentions a prize pool in the intro but not anywhere else D:

Edit: Oh damn Washington's stacked LOL, go LighT Washington!!!

I guess CT doesn't even have the heaviest hitter in the state on the list of players either (Boyo).
NY has so many good players, I totally forgot about Dhalism, he's so good

We now have the National Starleague that covers play in North America, The North American Star Leauge that has international play, and the Global Star League which is based in Korea. X|

the ultimate champion of North America


I'm going to be a nitpicky jerk and point out that Hawaii is not part of North America.

Overall it sounds interesting though, kind of a cool way to regular ladder players involved in some tournaments.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.
