jayw4862: I agree. But, it won't ever happen. The difference between the R11's and 97 Nikes is not big enough to come out with irons "in the middle". The only thing logical would be to drop the 97's to 94/95 since they now have the 100's.
Personally I would advocate L95 and TL tier and leave them at L97 all other tiers. That way it is pressure against bagging or wait until L97. There are enough comps at L level so I can't see any pressing reason to release them earlier there - sorry.
Surely that would not over load the programming too much?? They need to do something to encourage genuine TLs to stop them just saying must be joking if hanging around that long.
Mostly it's all perception anyway, but the game loses people over it and a simple change would give people light to aim for.
