As always, the DARKLORDs leader has relevant input to any conversation. :)

poke fallen angels mum!

Is this to be taken as evidence that DARKLORDs will compete?

Just a reminder, if you are leading your clan's team in league 7, and are not part of the manager chat...let me know here and I will invite you. If you are invited and not leading the team, let me know who is.

Not part of the chat.

Lufredd will participate

What about USSR?

You guys keep asking for deadline. I have said no deadlines will be set until league 6 is done. And I will post if I set one. There will be no secret deadline that wont be posted here

Any update on a deadline?

For Blitz, it was last week...sorry.

Hello everyone !

I would like to know if it could be possible for team from the first division to send a second team in Clan War starting at the last one ? Of course, considering no overlap during a clan war between the two teams: team A / team B.

We have a lot of players in French Community and we always wanted to give a chance to all of them. But, this is relatively hard to do that, and give us a chance to get good performances in first division.
This way is the only way I found to conciliate the two options, considering the significant heterogeneity of level in our clan, and the gap between our top players and the others.

Considering clans be like sport club, this possibility seems to be very logical, easy to do, and very usefull to manage clans.

Obviously, this implies to put clear limitations, like not allow the second team to rises in the same division than the first one.

I like that suggestion, as AWF has 18-20 strong players, so we can't use them all. The second team could rise in the same division, but my only worry is clans like Illuminati or French dominating groups with multiple teams.

hey Phaeril!

I like this idea too but there is maybe a problem if the team B ask for advice to team A in the Clan chat by taking screenshots for example. If your best players (team A) help team B, it's maybe unfair for the other clans competing with team B imho. But the idea is good. just don't know how to implement it.

I believe 101st requested this several seasons ago and were refused, leading to the creation of the separate Lynx clan.

Correct, you would need to actually start a new clan like Lynx and 101st

Why not just find a few clans from C and D to challenge with those other players. Then you can do a small competition just like the league

@Heliocentric: It's a very interesting problem, but in fact already existant.

- Of course, players from team A helping team B during a game will be unfair, especially by taking screenshots. It's not the aim anyway, and help team B to league-up with this kind of help will be counter productive: no amelioration of team B players, drop into a too hard division for them, and simply don't let them play by themself.
But yes, I don't know how to avoid this. I think it's impossible, like it's often impossible to avoid cheating, sadly.

- However, this problem already exist and will not be created by apparition of a second team. Clans can already cheating by helping players with screenshot during a clan league, and they are assumed to play their 1v1, 2v2 or 3v3 without other players... or I just don't see the principle of a clan war like you.

This situation has already appends in the French Community, when a couple of players asks for some advices to others in our chat during a game, before without screenshot, and after with it. In fact, we gave them some succint advises, but this create a debate in our clans if it's correct or not. This is not really clear considering we are a team and a clan war is a team league and to give some advices to a teammate seems to be normal. Nevertheless, each tournament could be considerate individually, and if you play against an Apex player in 1v1, you hope all Apex team is not meditating to the next move to do, together. I guest 3v3 are made for this, and test for team skills with reflexion between teammates inside a 3v3. Interesting question.

We conclude external help like this is not really appropriate and stop immediatly the "ingame help", but we cannot avoid other clans to do that...

So, creation of a team B will not create this new cheat. We just have to trust in the honesty of other clans (sounds naive).

@Chris:

- To start a new clan means separated clan chats and clam forums, because warlight forum is not enough flexible -> two different communities.

- To create a new competition is time intensive, duplicating organisation uselessly, and don't permit to progress in the "real" mother tournament and improve then team B skill against better players progressively. Not impossible, but in fact, likely it will not (maybe a lack of implication of councerned players, but not only).

But can you imagine the extra overhead for me if a ton of clans made B teams for the league?

@ChrisCMU;

For future reference, Knyte says he could probably automate the entire league with his programming skills. Something to consider at some point, maybe
