ECL ’26: Spring - Ability Bans

[iSvamp]

The important thing is probably what Furyan wrote above.
In this thread, Kenu says that it is likely a full ability ban for the upcoming season.
Like Furyan wrote, we need a confirmation on this as soon as possible.
Or a decision in another direction, as long as the decision is finalized so people can start practicing the right way.
But as it looks right now, the latest information should be understood as ECL Spring being played completely without abilities.

Yeah there has read:

"As we said in the original news story, the plan is to move away from Abilities for the Spring season, as that seems to be what the majority is asking for"

but no one have said earlier like "next ECL Spring season is going to be played without abilities. So there hasnt been clear information about that yet. There can always be plans but there hasnt been any 100% confirmation about that. And like we have now seen there is people who have changed their minds about banning all because they have had time to test and see things.

And i havent seen any kind of voting polls up there so who is that majority who is asking that? In these conversations there has been mainly same guys writing their opinions but that still really small part from whole community who are playing active this game and sportsgamer tournaments. And once again we are coming to that part where i personally know like many of players are afraid to take part to these conversations because there is so much offensive and toxic behaviour if you are having different opinion than some of higher division players. 

So imo public voting poll is only right way to solve this so we are able to get as much people as possible to take part this if we are aiming for that "majority" of people. Now that "majority" is small part from conversations or behind the scene talks. At least it feels like that.

And that was the point. Tell us what the plan is and lock it in.
Or base it on a democratic decision based on what the players want. That is the best option.

Skip a poll. Send a DM to all participating teams from ECL Winter and let the captains collect votes from their teams without pressure from intimidating top players. And let a democratic decision remain a democratic decision.

That DM to all participating teams from ECL winter could work too and everyone is able to give their votes inside of teams too because there can be different thoughts between own team players. So votes are going to be calculated from every player, not as a team. Good idea for option @iSvamp 👍🏻
