We know there's a problem with current North American leagues. The incentives to be an invite level player just aren't there anymore. Things are poorly balanced, divisions are stale, and there's no real reason to climb the ranks.
Once you're at the top, you stay at the top. You don't need to prove anything anymore, and can just sit there comfortably. You're paid to lose. What incentives are there to get better at the game when you can just coast your way through the highest division without much of a care? And then when things get tough, you quit. You disband your team and move on. You blame the league, you blame the admins, you blame the scene itself. You don't want to play against people better than you, but you still want to be called Invite.
High level competitions need incentives for growth, and that comes at the league level.
That is what we are trying to fix. Trying to change. This scene needs a reset, and that reset must come from the top. Because let's face it, we've lost the plot. Things must change at a structural level, and current leagues have shown zero indication that they are willing or even able to make the changes required to fix what is clearly broken.
We'll have more to share regarding our plans soon, including information on our upcoming third and final alpha season.
