I meant to specify that we haven't to the same degree. Saying S53 got to play with TPE levels over what the old eras were limited at is pretty disingenuous as it doesn't take into account that the season we played at 1600 to the elite's 2100, we're at 75% of their TPE. TPE numbers matter in the contexts of what those are able to perform at and represent relative to the top of the league. I bring up the last era of players because it feels like most of the "get over it" crowd comes from those draft classes. I agree that there are selfish intents in some of the elite players complaints right now, but it feels like that broad explanation of self indulgence is being applied to all aspects of people having issues with this. The league shifted to an engine that didn't provide the levels of diminishing returns seen in the past and I get where this addresses that. We're coming full circle though, my base complaint is that this affects two classes disproportionately. It makes sense how changes to the tpe curve will benefit the league. If it means moving from the 4 season plateau to 2 seasons at the top, that's fine. Being the first classes to deal with that wouldn't be fun but it'd be OK long term, but the move to 9 season regression takes one of those seasons away from each of two classes before allowing it to later classes again. Is it selfish to want the same as future classes? Maybe, but it's less than what some people are insinuating, especially when we have alternative options to provide a similar effect. I at least believe I fully understand your perspective, but I can't sit by and take something that is specifically unfair when it's clearly not been fully explored. |
