Have you read what I wrote at all Prince? Yes, you want your team to be the best so you can win, thats why you won't pick lesser known players and we will see the same captains and players as the years before. If you are really good player but not many people recognizes you, you won't be picked over somebody that is known and played with the captain before. Its not because you don't want to play with them, but as you said you want to maximize the chances of winning so why would you pick a noname. It's not about having differences. Its not a charity tournament, even if such player will be picked he will warm the bench just like on pickup tournaments. I wanted to make a team of less known players (but still very good) to give them a chance to make a name for themselves, now its not possible.
And Stockholm, its not only about me as I said before. And even if i am picked, ill be just sitting on spec, i'd rather play in POL 2. Yes this tournament should be the best vs best but who decides who is the "best"? The captain who picks obviously, and it comes back to the point i made before.
Price* sorry.
