I realize I've only played 1 week so far in this CL (sorry volition, but now you can feel Chadmann's pain with my scheduling when he was leading Clanless ) but I feel that the spirit of SEACL T5 is basically BSG with a hint of Plats in it.
I humbly ask the mods not to change any rules for this tier. This tier was meant for new players to get a taste of competitive action rarely tasted by lower leaguers, thus we should keep it that way. If we allow the rules to be tweaked to allow more higher leaguers to play, that will be a handicap to teams with bottom-heavy lineups. I sure as hell don't want to play StarCraft anymore when I have to face opponents 2 leagues higher than me every week.
As the rules stand, the top-heavy teams will get promoted into Tier 4, thus freeing them the problem of having too many Plats or Diamonds in the team. Teams with more Bronze/Silvers then will not have to face Plats/Diamonds anymore, making it easier for them to win more games, which results in higher morale and incentive to train even more.
