Kenu. You have said that you want teams that stay and build up their rep. Not allowing new teams to pro regardless of their roster is the way to do it. This would force elite and pro players to suck it up in lite or find a existing team on level of their liking. Or to actually stay on their teams. And yes, I have vested interest on the matter, as trying to build team in pro sucks ass, as top talents just gather new team and start over season after season.

I believe in a 4th division since there are so many teams in Lite. Many games are not even and is a grind to the playoffs. Many promoted Lite teams does it well in Pro and it is very hard to get demoted from Pro. Implementing a new division for new teams would make sense

POGGERS (Wasps Gaming) looking for RW for the next ECL Pro. Looking for a good guy that can play. Players are around 22 - 35 so no Jonne ukkos. Its really busy right now so if you have no previous XP in Elite/Pro don't apply, don't have time to find unknown talents.

Still looking!

Free G Only next season.

Yeah, that's the way we've done it so far. So to explain this in more detail: the top 2 have got promoted automatically the semifinal losers have played for a promotion against the bottom Pro-teams the remaining 4 quarter final losers have stood first in line for a promotion for any open Pro spots after the above, we look at the remaining teams with a Pro application (such as your example above) and decide who would be the best fit for any remaining Pro spots. Exactly - it's all about knowing your own level and where you enjoy playing. I mean the funny thing is that when we were drafting up the three division system, people were saying nobody would want to play in Lite. Well, I think we can all agree that's not the case. So I agree it's possible, but again it has to be supported by the teams actually wanting to play at such a level. True, however for a super talented squad I don't believe they should have to play from LOW-LITE -> LITE -> PRO -> ELITE, because let's say hypothetically that you started in LOW-LITE (come up with a better name, please haha) in ECL 9 (NHL 20), that'd mean you could play in Elite in ECL 12 - second season in NHL 21. That growth sort of story makes sense for teams and players that actually develop from being beginners to true champs and it would be amazing to see. However in today's community it doesn't make sense for players that are already Elite level and it doesn't make you want to put in the time and work. We'll continue looking at this approach as the community, leagues and tournaments grow and develop. Feedback is always welcome. Since it came up with my above reply, In regards to ECL 9 being played on NHL 20, I guess it's good to mention that we are looking at other alternatives for playing NHL 19 after the ECL 8 season. Playing for the European Championship more than once a year per game (ECL 8 = 2019 champion in NHL 19) would lessen the value of the championship in my opinion, so we're looking at other things for players to play outside of the two ECL seasons we're able to provide during the NHL 19 lifespan.

Heh, i didn`t even realize that it has been 1 ECL season / NHL / YEAR And good to know you are looking for new ways to keep us entertained 🤜 I think that easiest way would be simply making next ECL season longer. Fe. double the regular season. But i don`t know is it smart to do with so short notice... or what would be common opinion of the community in this case. But what ever you do, it would be nice if tournament could be played with these Lite teams, so it would create more continuity. Or maybe you could make a longer summer cup and split it to fe. PRO+ELITE players to one group and rest of the players to another.

Thanks for all the input. I would like to point out that the top 8 in Lite have been prioritised over any new teams, no matter what the roster of new teams. My personal belief is that these picks have been quite successful in the past seasons, but please feel free to provide your feedback on this as well. I would also like to know how many feel like there is a need for a 4th division and how many would volunteer in playing in that division.

Thanks for good posts and ideas... Discussion is what helps admins create better, more suitable product for all parties. I think this is a great idea and a i have also been thinking about it. Honestly, i was first going to write a post something like "What would your perfect ECL be like". And big part of that post would have been creating a new division under Lite and restrict number of Lite teams to fe. 32 teams. But then i thought it is a thing that we cant change before ECL8 and i wanted to focus discussion to number of games being played in Lite. Yeah agree, it was a fun regular season! Super tight group! I think, that if some of the teams would have played in different group, there may have been one or few teams in a top 4... But now, The Black Jacks murdered 3 of our groups teams... I think that league admins have every season raised some new team(s) straight to PRO by just looking at their roster. I think that it has not really been a big problem and with 4 division system it would be even less... because now league admins would have 2 options of which division to place a new team... Or even if all new teams would have to start in Lite, the division would be way tougher than what it is now. But yeah of course it would be too easy for Elite level teams... probably they should just be promoted straight to PRO. But even if not... at least it would raise the value of Elite and PRO divisions... Maybe we would see even less of teams falling apart in those two great divisions and i think it would raise brand value of ECL. Yeah sure equality is hard to achieve in Leagues with 30+ teams... It is hard to achieve even in Elite where is 16 teams. I think is there is a huge difference between bottom4 and top4 teams in Elite as well.

Prowlers need one player to complete their roster. Prowlers finished in the playoffs spot but then got eliminated. We are playing in both ECL(lite) and in OEHL and we can guarantee play time in both tournaments but mainly OEHL. We are a swedish speaking club and would love it if a swedish player to come join us but english is also okay. The age we'd like is 18+ Positions wanted: 1 center and 1 ld If you meet our requirements don't hesitate to ask for a tryout What we are looking for a as a center: -2-way game -Active player -somewhat active If you meet the requirements, go ahead and contact my GMs, Niillie123 or MythTHOR

Unless I end up having complete aids connection. Nothing wrong with little dick though. All good familia 👍

Regional restrictions: ECL is a European tournament format, however we do not necessarily exclude North American or Russian players. North American players are not allowed to host matches / be captain in the lineup, which means all games need to take place on European servers. This also applies to Russian players - please evaluate your previous connection experience against some of the teams participating in the ECL, especially if you live in eastern parts of your country (which likely connects you to US West servers). In case of severe connection issues, we reserve the right to exclude teams or players.
