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.

I am tempted to disagree with the second point because one could get promotion to Pro with their ECL11 team but then attend ECL12 Pro with totally different team which could or could not be good enough for Pro. Of course those roster lock rules could prevent teams from changing players too much. I don't have like super strong opinion on this as I can understand the pros and cons of both options but I do feel that the qualification tournament should take place prior to the next ECL.

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)

Well done ignoring my points and writing in Swedish. 👍🏼 Doesn't mute your points, but doesn't make for much of a conversation. Please write in English or we'll have to remove the messages. Edit: As you continue arguing and provoking in Swedish, I have hidden the messages, as promised. The (first) original message can be read in the quote above. In his response (hidden, due to continuing in Swedish) he claims I'm escaping his questions rather than answering and that I'm being a "big leader who gets things to look good by deleting messages". Additionally, he expects every page to separately say "English only", despite that being our policy for the 5+ years he's been a member. I'm always interested having a proper discussion about these things, evaluate different options and get different views. I have my opinions and I do my best to explain why I see things in a certain way and what the problem areas of another approach might be from my point of view. From my point of view you ignored what I wrote, continue writing in a language that most people here don't understand (I do, but this is a public discussion) and top it off by acting disrespectfully. I think it's ridiculous that you keep brining up a claim that ECL has the same structure as EHL/EC 2010-2015. Yes, ECL runs twice a year and has a hockey-esque regular season + playoffs, but if you don't acknowledge all of the other development that has happened from those days - then I'm afraid we just see things very differently. You say I used "we don't have time" as the argument for not running more ECL's in a year and yet succeeded in "running a Spring League, SCL, Summer Cup and Finnish Championships after the fact". If your view of NHL esports is to play ECL, then ECL, then ECL, then ECL, then ECL and then some more ECL, then yeah, sure - we should probably scrap all of that. From my point of view, the different tournaments and leagues are things that keep it fresh and make winning the "biggies" exciting. I love the ECL. I love the World Championships. I love the Olympics. I love the NHL. Yet I wouldn't want to watch any of these four all year and the competitors wouldn't have time to participate in all of these. That is my main point - keeping it interesting. Making titles mean something. Letting champions celebrate their championships. Am I 100% satisfied with everything we do? Are we making the right call every time? Are we spending every minute efficiently? Of course not. Are we creating something incredibly nice and keep pushing the envelope in NHL esports - I believe so. Constructive feedback will continue to push us to greater things. However you package your feedback, we will receive it and consider it, but it makes no sense for me to take the time and effort to respond if you're just going to ignore my points and continue being offensive.
