Experience/Skill Level

[glasspoet]

GST has provided leagues that feature a complete scale of experience/skill levels. Please choose the one(s) that fits your preference best.

GST works endlessly to provide the highest level of competition. As to this point in time, GST has exceeded its own expectations (and we give our heartfelt thanks to our GST Regulars--a great bunch, if a little on the quiet side). Not only are our Regulars highly skilled in fantasy baseball, they display a high degree of sportsmanship as well. Despite the quiet nature of GST leagues, TRASH TALKING IS ABSOLUTELY PERMITTED!

Though GST leagues come in all sizes, the size of the league is not necessarily the determining factor on how competitive the league is. Going by the entry fee size is a better determining factor.

GST runs (generally) larger size leagues (14 to 20 teams). Larger leagues require deeper baseball knowledge. For smaller leagues, it is best to try **new** leagues first.

The entry fee scale is an approximation only of skill level. Many of GST's Pro leagues, where you will find more "rookies" (just entering fantasy baseball leagues recently) really showed high levels of baseball knowledge/skill and took it to our GST Regulars regularly.

WELL DEEPER LEAGUES ALSO MEANS NO PICK-UPS IN MY MIND,WHY GET A OUTFIELDER THAT PLAYS ONCE A WEEK OR A PITCHER THAT IS A 5TH MAN AND ON VERGE OF GOING DOWN(MINERS) I MEAN,25 MEN TEAMS= 800 PLAYERS PITCHERS AND BATTERS WE ARE TALKING RELIEVERS AND BENCH GUYS INCLUDED.

One thing GST is noted for, (for whatever reason), is quiet leagues. You cannot judge GST leagues by the response to this forum. A majority of GST GMs are not members of this forum, and wouldn't have much to say anyways. This is NOT to say they don't exist and would (quietly) destroy your team any given week (and eat your liver). I assure you -- GST leagues are some of the most competitive you will find.

Rooster, are you telling me you enjoy ProAss more than AA? lol....come on now, baseball knowledge is part of the balance equation and one of the reasons GST is a higher level of leagues. You CERTAINLY have the level of baseball knowledge to have the advantage in larger leagues (AA as example). With higher level of baseball knowledge requirements and restricted player availability comes the test of move-making!

Did you stay with Adam Dunn all year? Did you give up on Dan Uggla midway through the season? These are the GM decisions that make or break successful seasons.....ESPECIALLY in larger leagues!
