You don't want to get at the bottom. Going to d5 is completely pointless. You're better off getting 6th or 7th and winning the relegation series.
Just to clarify, if a team finishes last in their league, they automatically relegate, or go down, to the next lower league. In our case, that would be D5. Which GM Nick is saying is pointless. However, it is not the end of the world in my opinion. If you do finish last, you will spend a season (or more) in D5, and win every game LOL, then come back up, or another words promote.
Though if you can get the hang of it, and beat the competition enough here, even if you don't make the playoffs, you can stay in this league, and grow here.
Good luck! Let us know if you have any questions. Otherwise, see you guys on the floor!
