Season 12 rebuilds the league.

Every team kept four (captain, co-captain, two protected); everyone else went back into a 30-pick snake draft. MonkeyShaman and PossiblyMayB take over as commissioners from Greeempire. Newcomers Mulltastic (ranked #1), MygraiN, and Meadowtownn join returning vets Vales, cyan, stublu88, and NotSlothinAround.

Opening matches (scheduled):
Fri Nov 6, 7:00 PM ET — Special Tactics vs HiveMind  ·  Sat Nov 7, 12:00 PM ET — PSIOP Gaming vs PulledTheBoys

Headline draft moves:
#1 HiveMind open with newcomer MygraiN
#7 PSIOP take DarkMenace from last season's champions
#16 HiveMind wait on Chat-Omic (ranked 4th overall)
#22 PulledTheBoys steal Mulltastic — #1 in the power rankings

What's new:
HiveMind replace the Hares (inherit 1st overall pick)
