Anyway, it should be secured that players are not allowed to play solely a qualification tournament for one team and then go back to their origin team. In my opinion the current roster rules definitely need some adjustments to prevent player rentals from teams that don’t have to participate in any qualification cups.

In my opinion the qualifiers should be played with the same line-up as the team played in ecl11 (Rules about wildcard teams are okay), there is no need for those "Sauna contracts". Qualifiers should be played asap and then teams can start making changes to their rosters for the ecl12. But if we are going with that "soft roster lock" rule, i think 2 weeks division lock for the former pro players is not enough, that should be the same 4 weeks like former elite players. Or then players who are participating qualifiers (=join the team just before the qualifiers starts) are forced to play whole season in that team in ecl12 (best solution imo)

Judging from these, I assume the qualifier is to be played just before the start of next season instead of immediately after the current one has ended like in the old system? So the qualifying teams will have the whole lengthy offseason to train and make personnel changes, so concerns like the one I quoted below should be irrelevant, right?
