Good day

Would you prefer ENSL Season 15 to be a Cup or a Season?

I would personally prefer a 10 team season to be a fast league; and a season with 9 teams or less, to be a 2 day(flexible) cup.

Please keep your posts short and concise.

if you get 10 teams go for season if not then do night cups series, one day cup per week not like it used to be 2-3 days.

Not all teams can commit to so many matches each week aA. I'd prefer a series too, but it's not as easy as it sounds.

dude i've seen small gaming communities like that, hell even bigger ones that can manage a lot more teams to play one day(to finnish whole cup in few hours), all it takes is some good organisation and will from gamers to actually play it, it's nothing difficult it's all about mentality, you singup for the cup and you treat ppls time in this cup serious.

lets concentrate on getting more than 5 teams first yeh?

Then we'll start to make some rules for what mentality players need to have when they signup...


NB. I'm joking.

PS. I said 'so many matches each week' (not a one night cup).
Please at least stay on topic with your replies.

10+ teams -> season, 9 or less -> cup (with loser bracket or something so you play AT LEAST 2 games)(and with 2 REALLY FLEXIBLE days, more like a week, like a cup where you set up a time with your opponent)

ENSL Admins should PM or contact those clans that have more than 8 players in the roster, and tell them about this season.

I dont know if all of them check ENSL daily.

The problem with a loser bracket is that a lot of people will have to wait for only few teams. It can only proceed after certain matches have been played. You're going to have like 6 consecutive matches only for 8 teams, most of the matches being played by same teams and the whole loser bracket will halt unless a certain match is played. And you've to play in the middle of the week unless you want to ask people to play 6 weeks for 1 cup.

In season though you're going to have like 5-6 consecutive matches, every week at pre-decided times. This is good for spectators, good for teams and generally much better because everyone can still play even if they lose and don't have just watch others playing. If cup is going to last more than a week its much better idea to do a season.
