Ladder Clan League is going to use a tiered system in which teams will be instructed to provide a line up of different caliber players. This line up will have 5 different skill levels with assigned players to each skill level. The team will then select which of their players from each skill level they would like to have compete in their respective matches.
Example: Disclaimer
This is an example, please do not take this offensively
Team A:
Bakuryu Kolll dOTy
LuMiX NoisE Dsyxelic
Puppykiller ihufa Mewka
Sentinal Shuruken BlackCat
Eywa Shimy ouzo
< Sniper Ridge 1 > Bakuryu < Circuit Breaker 2 > NoisE < Chain Reaction 3 > ihufa < Monty Hall 4 > Sentinel < Battle Royale 5 > Shimy < Monte Crisco R > Depends on which number this randoms... < Ace Match 1 > Bakuryu
Each set of the best of 7 will be a best of 3 with the possibility of interchanging players between games. In the end, it will not only depend on your top players performing at maximum, but also for them to push their little noobies to the best they possibly can be. A full team effort of all ranks will be required to take the win.
All Sorting of the skill levels will be done by the league in between clan wars. It is likely that a few errors occur in season 1 in terms of placement and for this very reason, season 1 will be kept relatively short. No referees will be present, so it is recommended that experience leaders take charge of the teams and take screen shots of any issues.
Format
Teams divided into groups of 4 in order to play a Round Robin from which 2 teams will emerge of each group, these teams will then face each other in a single elimination bracket. The clan war format will be Best of 7 matches x Best of 3 games with interchanging players between games allowed.

I think it would be better to make clan partnerships between the GU clans and the D rank clans and have them play together. I'm sorry, but I doubt new ''teams'' with such high skill disparity will form just for this.

Which is why I'd be looking for some high skill clans to come in and pick up some players from here to make themselves one or two teams for this.
EDIT: I think that as a D rank player this league would present an awesome opportunity and I encourage you to propose this in D rank threads as well as C and other tourney threads/PM active players if posting is unsavory.
1) We can only have 3 players from each tier? 2) What are the exact minimum/maximums for each tier? 3) For instance, if an LRM) player has only reached B on iCCup but wrecks in clan leagues, can he be 2nd tier? 4) How many teams are allowed to sign up and play? 5) How many weeks will this be played for? 6) What kind of point system are you using to assure that teams use all of their tiers? 7) How without an infrastructure do you expect a league this massive to take off? 8) Who is the referee? 9) How do you expect people to research and construct teams that expect to win in 3 weeks if they have to research the D rank leagues?

1) No limit defined yet - Obviously a ton of players on one team has no purpose. 2) None yet defined, will be determined based on relative ranks of other sign ups - if there are 10 A- and 5 B-, then a B would get sorted down, opposite, B would get sorted up. 3) Possible, not guaranteed until we have a good head count from other teams. 4) Infinite! (I would guess we wouldn't get more than 16... Which is high at that. 5) lets say 3 for Round Robin, between 2 - 3 for playoffs... 5 or 6 weeks. 6) Likely will be guided by an elo system after the original sorting, however, players who are misplaced may be moved at any time 7) I don't expect huge participation in the first season to be honest, it'll largely be based out of this thread with replays reported to the e-mail 8) None as of yet, it will depend on the overall experience of clan leaders, if there are no 0 day experience leaders, I would expect to attempt a run without one (since it would essentially be this if a ref were there anyway given quantity of simultaneous games). 9) The start date may be moved back as required.
Anyone who is interested on being on LRM)'s team please PM me. I will start hunting players out and researching leagues etc to acquire players, but clearly it would be best if we had open communication from the get go.
@Eywa, Bizzy has never laddered. Can I put him in tier 4?

Hence it's not entirely based off of ladder ranks.

1) for the random match, will both teams send out the same player of a particular rank, any player from a particular rank, or will there be two random numbers, one for each team (so there is randomly a 4v2 matchup) 2) if there is no referees, how far in advance will we know the random number(s)? 3) Is that the map order? 4) If not; will the map pool generally have good players on good maps and bad players on silly maps? 5) Are lineups pre-submitted, or set match by match 6) could a player fight up a weight class (bibiane/karate didn't show up for hypothetical team Fox, so their line up is elegant, elena, wands, dyslexic, stratos in that order)? 7)is it winner take all, or is the prize pool divided? 8) when are finalized rosters due? 9) assuming e doesn't get a rank to itself, which rank (A, B, C, or D) is most likely to get sub divided across 2 tiers? and since I want to top game: 10) how is your day going?
I actually REALLY think this is a great idea, mainly because of it's potential to get all players practicing together. It gives those in the yellow and blue ranks people of higher ranks that are now motivated to help them get better.
Structured well this could really help do wonders, especially for that neglected gap of higher yellow/lower blue.
Fuck now I feel like improving again so that I don't get lumped into group 3... why you need to inspire these feelings!
But honestly this is a great idea as it solves all of the issues of DRTL (players not wanting to rank up and hit C's) and allows lesser players to be in an environment where they can benefit from being around better players (which should amount to better training).
