Yeah... until 2 years ago, we had rules that discouraged team from spending money, and if you're stuck in a division with that team, well, honestly, are you going to spend anything at all? The same thing happened in the other division, with the Gladiators taking 10 division titles in 13 years.

In any case, yeah, it was a pretty insane dynasty. The same team is currently on a pretty good streak as well, as the Liberté and the New Skojpp Czars have faced each other 4 times in the past 5 years in our Alpha series. The difference is that nowadays, other teams totally have the means to compete with them, and the rules encourage them to do so. However, they're both being chased by some improving teams, so there will definitely be some competition pretty soon.
