There are some matches in the final 2 weeks that will determine who gets into the playoffs, and who has to wait until next season.

In Division 1, is a little complicated. If WSB only loses 1 more match, they will likely make the playoffs. If Snow Raven loses a match, and WSB & Paragon win out, then WSB & Paragon will make the playoffs. However, I don't expect that SR will lose a match. Thus, it will be a week by week tension for WSB, with Paragon mostly having to hope that WSB falters.

In Division 2, the key match-up is in week 9. Lowtax: KDR Squad versus Luna Wolves. The winner of this match will very likely take the 2nd spot for division 2. At this point, I expect a very tough fought game.


In Division 3 we have a key match-up with Lowtax: Bropocalypse facing Black Wolves. Right now Black Wolves is ahead of Lowtax in the standings; however, if Lowtax wins, they will have the edge on the tiebreaker. This essentially means that for the purposes of getting into the playoffs, Bropocalypse does have to be too concerned with their loss against Draagun.

In Division 4, things are getting tight. DV8 can control their destiny by winning the rest of their matches. The key matchup is in week 8 versus Blazing Aces, if DV8 wins, and wins the rest of their matches, they will finish 7-1 (joined late so they missed a match) with 21 points, and Blazing Aces would finish the season 7-2 also with 21 points, but DV8 would get the edge in the tiebreaker.

The final answer: nobody. Nobody will get into the playoffs.

Luckily it was just temporarily, and teams are successfully synching.

[machine]

were players allowed 1 mid season team change?

[M3atloaf]

Rosters were allowed to be changed until week 7 apparently, so long as they were in prior to the week starting.

huh...

[M3atloaf]

TheMagician was allowing rosters to be changed weekly. Thus if you wanted different people or a change for week six, you could submit and updated roster for Week 6 and beyond. The last week for this was Week 7 and that will be the roster for the rest of the season.

[TheMagician]

Each week teams had the option of updating their rosters by 11:59pm est Monday for the following week.

Originally, rosters were going to be locked week 3. However, they were kept open, due to the start-stop nature of the league caused by open beta. I then gave teams a 2 week warning that rosters would be locked at the start of week 8.

As you said Machine, a player could only switch teams once during the season. Thus if Sgt. IGotThis joined Clan Love Monkeys, and left to play with House One Legged Hyenas, and then later in the season left to join Black Bisectors Mercenary Corporation, he would be ineligible to play for the Black Bisectors during the rest of the season.

Looks like your fate is already on the wire here - If you lose one more game it's bye bye, to say nothing of the fact that you still have yet to play Blazing Aces.

4 votes only and 3 of them were our own . At least we made Kataris proud!

Congrats on making the playoffs guys. I'm surprised (and happy) that only 3 of the 8 teams have been determined so far.

Thanks all! It's proving to be quite the season.

I really want to see KDR Squad vs Luna Wolves. I think that's going to be one of the most epic match ups. I sent CW Roy and Nephyx a PM about possibly shoutcasting it. Hopefully, they'll down for it.

Division #1 is turning out rather interesting with ELP coming back to 6-2.

NA Standings: http://www.runhotord...league-season-1

Yah, its very close. Now those teams just need to finish their final matches so we can see what happens. If each win-out it will come down to drops won-drops lost, and Paragon has the edge, but they have 2 matches left. However, their opponents haven't been good with scheduling, which is unfortunate. Wolf Spider will have to hope for an ELP loss at this point as they are 2 games down to ELP, and ELP defeated Wolf Spider last week.

Division 2 comes down to the Luna Wolves vs KDR Squad match, and Division 4 comes down to DV8 versus Blazing Aces. I wish we could spectate them!
