There will always be stacked regiments until the game dies, no one can change that. Most good players stick together because they are friends. With what I saw in the OCE competitive scene for both native and NW, the best regiments just had a bunch of really old friends who got good at the game together. There have been no regs where good players join together just to win and get a title. Those regs just had friends who constantly grinded the game together and became god tier. Having 2-3 stacked regiments doesn't help but an easy fix would be to have smaller gfs like 6v6 - 9v9 if you want 2 leagues but with the current numbers have 2 leagues doesn't seem great unless you have regs go at it more than once. With what Junedragon said, its not up to good players to mentor the intermediate and novice players, they don't have to if they don't want to, I personally got very very lucky and had really experienced players show me and the ropes and now I'm half decent at the game. However there seems to be a growing core of intermediate players who are playing more competitive and they should be encouraged to continue playing. People need to understand that Hawkince is in a really tight spot where having either 1 league or 2 leagues could destroy the comp. I'd personally say that have 2 leagues would be the better option so regs don't get 15-0d and quit. Having 1 league seems like an easy fix for having 7-9 regs but you're going to get a bunch of angry and depressed gamers when they get 15-0 by the 84th or 21st etc. I'd recommend having league 1 regs gf ft15 but best of 3 instead of having 2 gfs. Hawkince isn't hosting a groupfighting league just to have the 84th "stack" win. After what happened to Zach's 1v1 league, most people want to have groupfights and it's good to spice up the competitive NA scene. No one wants to have 2 drawn out 1v1 leagues that are back to back, Having another 1v1 league right now could potentially be disastrous for NA competitive. Hunteh hit the nail on the head, both 1v1 and groupfighting leagues are good in moderation and that groupfights are easier to setup and are faster plus a 1v1 league was just held so some players may be a bit burnt out.
