State of the 4545 League

by @SpiteKnight

Three teams lead the League table by staying undefeated after 3 rounds. Amongst them, 'Team 777' play against 'All You Need is Luft' in this round, hoping to end each others' winning streaks.

Lonewolf Season 10 has ended, it was a very close finish and the standings saw significant changes in the final round. Below are the results.

In the U1800 section, congratulations to:
Best U1600, @Proustino!

Thanks everyone for participating! We'll come out with a survey soon to hear about your experiences this season, and to decide on when LoneWolf #11 should start.

Updates on sister leagues:

Rapid Battle #2 will be run by ErinYu. The structure will be as follows:

`Everyone will be placed into groups of 16 (or more) players close to your rating. I'll assign groups of 4, which takes 2 weeks. The top two in each group enter a DE bracket winner's side, and the bottom two enter loser's side. If anyone wants to late-join the tournament, they'll go in loser's side. When it gets to loser's semifinals, time allowing, I'll make it another group stage so all the semifinalists play each other to enter grand finals.

For promotions/demotions: Everyone tied for 13th place has a playoff. Bottom two are demoted and are replaced with the top two from the next division. (Though I'm not sure if the organizer after me will keep this feature).

Time control is 15+10 (or shorter if both players agree). Two games per pairing.

Anyone can pitch suggestions up until we get started on May 21st, but I feel the pools/swiss -> DE framework is the way to go.

This is the last week of the Series #2

No new video this week, stay tuned to the CLTV Youtube page for VODs and streams.
