Following some discussion with the managers and LGPE Discord server, we've decided to make a few changes to the tour format due to the low number of teams. First, the main season will now last 6 weeks and consist of two round robins between the teams. Finals will be between the top two teams. We are also adding two new slots, VGC and Draft. These tiers were requested by quite a few community members, and expanding the team size will give more players a chance to participate.

Regarding LGPE Draft, a finalized draft board and detailed rules will be published soon, but an example board can be found here. Teams will create three drafts each and select one when submitting lineups each week.

Additionally, the auction budget will now be 110k, and teams must consist of at least 11 players (8 starters + 3 subs). Manager self-buys will now cost 12.5k.

Player signups will last an additional week, now ending the weekend of October 11th. The following week will be used for drafting, and week 1 of battles will start around October 19th.

Pinging managers, everyone with a signup post, and some people who expressed interest in VGC or Draft so you can adjust your signup if you wish.
