After a lot of internal discussion, we've decided that we'll be keeping the format from last year, that is to say keeping the second USUM slot and six teams with eight slots.

Additionally, by popular demand, we're going to give retains a try this year.

Thank you so much to everyone who has participated in this discussion!
 

The one and only buck

Banned deucer.
I definitely agree with keeping 2 SM slots. SM is probably the most well-love version of AG and still has a huge following. A second ND slot would make sense as it is the "current gen", but managing for AGPL and snake showed me that ND players are in short supply. Plus I don't think the PL base we have would prefer more ND. 4th SS slot is definitely way too much and I don't think enough players play DPP to make it anything other than ~2 players dominating the pool vs others who aren't experienced at all.
My other proposal is one of the SS slots being BO3 just to add some variety.
ND would be great bro. They are MANY talented ndag players available on PS!
