The only thing elite about the elite league is your ability to grind chess mindlessly for hours every day for days on end. It certainly doesn’t make you elite in the sense of playing ability.
LOL, that is true of every league... my game still sucks and I've been #1 up to silver (will advance to Crystal today).... just grind and grind and grind... with 52% success... but hey it's something for us obsessive compulsives to do that's better than the alternatives.
I've rank 3# in elite League 300 trophies can i advance to champion this week
wait we were supposed to grind for this? I just played chess a lot for fun
Im in crystal at 300 elo. I might get back in to the league stuff

I am simply trying to state that the players in the 2nd category (average players) simply can't compete with the most hardcore players from first category (high Elo), on a quantitative level (which this leagues tournament of yours is strongly about - encouraging a lot of matches).
It's simply not humanly possible. The average player would need to play even twice as many matches (due to the arena compounding bonuses, up to 4 extra points/trophies, on winning streaks).
I made it to Elite level by bouncing around 400 elo in Rapid.
The maths is such that with an average of 8 points per match, I'd need to win an average of net 75 games against increasingly harder opposition to get to 1000.
a) I don't care to grind out that many games
b) an internet trophy is somewhat useless anyway
c) I play this game for fun
Scorpyoon89 may have stumbled on some deep truth embedded in the universe but I would suggest buying some chips and mayo to go with that salt.
Leagues just mean that you have played a lot of games and occasionally win. It is not a test of skill, but as some have described it is a test of "grind". Grinding is not easy, it takes a lot of time and energy, and if you go on a tilt you can play a lot of games, lose them all and not get any points. Here's to the grinders!
