    That’s because your offense is limited anyway.

    I don’t think it’s as clear cut as merely taking a look at what others use would make it out to be, for example SJK successfully utilizes other player classes amongst their forwards. I think people use PWF now because they have always done so + if your opponent uses PWF’s, at least you’re not ”giving your opponent any leash” by using a possibly inferior build. Everyone should use whatever feels most natural. I switched from playmaker to PWF in NHL 17, and while at first it definitely felt very clunky, I feel like it is the best build at the moment. Jumbo isn’t bad either, though.

    I would understand 5(?) to mean a fifth game is to be played if both teams agree to it. They didn’t. I guess we’ll just have to agree to disagree on the matter.

    For regular season, yes, I would agree.

    I have never played just one game, but I still don't think it's outrageous, especially considering it's the playoffs. I have been part of gamedays where the games have been completely rescheduled at the last minute, though, which is somewhat comparable. Like miiso said, it's a bit odd but nothing to get outraged over.

    I don’t see a problem with playing just one game if nothing was agreed up front. I don’t know why one would categorize it as a ”loophole”. The wording in the rule should state that captains must agree to x amount of games when setting them up. If no agreement is made, one game would be the minimum.

    People can talk about respect for the league and respect for the game all they want, and how it is ridiculous that LA gives out WO’s at this stage in a ”competitive eSports league”, but respect for the league is a two-way street - you and me, as players, should respect the league enough to have the games played within the allocated time period.

    Enforcer defenceman: Pros - decent speed Cons - very slow So which one is it? Never a bad thing to get more material here, though!

    Very much agreed! I’ve played with him a couple of times, and he’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing! I haven’t really ever played with Lämsä, so I can’t say anything about being on the same side but the points do seem to keep coming. Nice work, I like reading these articles.

    I think a week is more than enough to play 4-7 games. If you’re not able to field your best lineup, that’s on you I think.

    Love playing with this guy. now we only need to know where he hid the rest of his penis

    How many times per second will you exactly be able to go down with L1?
  14. tbnantti
    Yes, kind of like the winner of the Mestis and Suomi-sarja join the Liiga playoffs.

    And trolling should give you a few minus points. Like I said, it was to give people a rough idea of how we could estimate a team's level objectively.

    I don't see a point in placing obviously stacked in lite only to destroy the teams, as it goes completely against the idea of the divisions in the first place. I know the staff underlined the desire for a certain type of longevity with teams, but I see that as merely limiting the competitiveness of the game. However, in order for this type of system to be possible, there has to be a specific way to rate teams and their level. There are various different ways to do that, but the simplest way would be to assign personal ratings to players and when a certain threshold is reached when the player ratings are added up, the team is granted access to Pro if there is room. Say, playing x games in elite the previous season grants a player y rating. On top of that, if he's a forward and finishes in the, say, top-20 in points, he gets z points on top of that. Have rules like this for every position, where the player ratings are in black and white, something tangible to judge a team's ability objectively. This is obviously just a rough example to give you an idea of how a team rating could be achieved through personal performance. I do understand that some players in lite would actually relish the challenge of facing excellent teams in the lowest tier, so their voices should obviously be heard as well.

    I like the introduction. That way I know if the podcast will even interest me. Should definitely keep it in my opinion. As for the actual podcast, regurgitating the stats and/or games played isn't very captivating to the listener. Needs some meat on the bones. Keep it up, though!

    I've only played the game for three days, EASHL mainly, but I do like the changes they have made. It feels like the "bubble" is gone when you're stickhandling. Last year, if you got behind the defender with the puck, there was no way he could come back from it as you could just protect the puck away from him at a slower speed than the defender was going. The stickhandling is a lot slower, and could maybe be a bit faster, but I don't think it's that bad of a thing if it stays this way. Way less one-man show puck protection non-sense to find an open passing lane. Practice mode will definitely come in handy once the full game comes out to memorize the new dekes. The way the game plays currently promotes a teamplay oriented approach to the game, especially with the chop being nerfed. You can actually use saucer passes more, especially in the neutral zone, which is good and allows for a more creative approach. L1 is ridiculous and something has to be done to remedy that. I wonder if it's used by the NA teams, or if it's a EU thing.

    Just pop some earbuds on and clean the house or something, that's how I listen to the podcasts I listen to!

    Alpha with a very professional sounding intro, introduces Sile who sounds like he just woke up from a drunken stupor 😂

    Has someone been playing with xDoumi on my account? I hadn't played a single game with him before the Summer Cup.

    Give me back the in-game replays of a big hit and the heartbeat breakaway camera
