EPTalso it's only been 1 play day. if taeja and stork end up playing a bunch of times this round, it negates all these arguments.

Thank you my friend. It is also my thought and it is by far more logical this way in my opinion. It cannot be serious to lose points cause your players play ... this is really non sense. I think the creator of the game forgot this. I mean "your anti-team will score against you" was a good idea, but it should mean that the results of their games are against you, if they play well, you will lose points. But the fact of playing, just playing, should still give points to you, not against you. | ||

Also, is there a way to see how a hypothetical team would do?? That'd be a cool feature, though not sure if it's worth the effort to make it.  On December 23 2014 20:00 TsogiMaster wrote: ok, but some1 has -1 on Skyhigh. Must be mistake then. That is because someone has Skyhigh on their Anti team, and his team recently won, giving Skyhigh +1 point. That point counts against the person who has him as Anti pick. | ||

Ah, like this? ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/kMKTTGn.png) Since sKyHigh is on their anti-team, they lose the point instead of gaining it. Anti-teams work the same way as main teams except the opposite. | ||

There's an option to create a new group there. | ||

It would be a lot better (imo) to gain points for an anti team player losing his match instead of NOT losing points when he loses his match. But i guess a lot of people don't agree with that. | ||

TL;DR OPPORTUNITY COST SHEESH | ||
