This is all true. You can tell Eagle Stix and Madskilz play all year. They head into fall and winter rolling.

Those 2 teams are here to stay. Eagle Stix is definitely a top 2-3 team. Madskilz top 7-8 for sure. Here's the list (no specific order)

Eagle Stix
M&D
Aces
YJ
Hero's
BLC
Madskillz

After that it's subjective


Exactly. The gap after the top 10 is massive. reality is that the 10th team is much closer to 40th than they are to 1st.

Not sure the gap is as massive as you believe and the ranking are garbage anyway. YJ lost to both MDU and Coppermine in the Summer. Hero’s lost to LBC this Fall. Aces lost to MDU this Fall. I think these teams are definitely the better teams but they can’t show up against these other teams and assume they will get the W. They have to earn it. Now the comment about 10th is closer to 40th is about Ranking and they don’t mean a thing. The 40th team is Coppermine which is clearly better than a lot ranked higher with SW and FCA being examples. It based on teams played and Coppermine based on results looked to always played Hero’s and M&D plus all other top teams. Also based on Fall scores that don’t mean anything with some teams having more multiple sport girls. Don’t sleep on MDU, LBC, NEMS, definitely not Pride and possibly Coppermine.
