Title Match Style Championship [Multiple R]

Or Jacksonville Armada U23, an existing NPSL team, is removing the U23 from their name and allowing some former players from the NASL team play for them.

I'm going to maintain both Jacksonville being a continuation, and them going on hiatus, at least for a while.

 

First update of the 2018 season!

Playoffs and Playoffs Combined
Dallas holds onto it on 3/3, 3/18, and 3/24 against RSL, Seattle, and Portland.
These teams have yet to win this trophy: Orlando (5 chances), LAFC (0 chances)

Regular Season
LAFC wins it in their first ever MLS game on 3/4 against Seattle! They also held it on 3/10 against RSL.
LAG won it from them on 3/31.
These teams have yet to win this trophy: Atlanta (1 chance), Minnesota (2 chances)

Reverse
Montreal held the trophy on 3/4 and 3/10 against Vancouver and Columbus.
Toronto took it on 3/17, then RSL on 3/30,
These teams have yet to win this trophy: LAFC (0 chances)

All Leagues
NPSL hasn't started for the division Jacksonville is in.

All Leagues (Provisional)
Indy takes over the trophy as the last remaining champion not on hiatus.
They hold it against Richmond Kickers on 3/24, then lose it to Cincinnati on 3/31.

As mentioned earlier, I'm maintaining two versions of the all leagues version for the time being. I would still appreciate input from people about which they think is most appropriate.

 

Indeed it would! I've updated through today, but I'll wait until MLS regular season end to post the whole update. Some tidbits to hold you over until then:

Orlando still has not won either of the MLS + Playoffs trophies, and are the only team that's played in MLS that hasn't.

MLS Regular Season only has been won by all MLS teams.

The All Leagues trophy (treating Jacksonville as the same team) has ended up back in MLS.

However, the provisional (Indy is the latest remaining winner from last season) wound up back in USL after a short trip down to the PDL.

 

End of 2018 regular season update (and first bit of USL playoffs). I'm going to abbreviate a bit, because I didn't update this for most of the season:
Team - Streak length

Playoffs and Playoffs Combined
Dallas - extends it to 7

End of 2018 results

Playoffs
As it turns out, the Playoffs and Combined trophies split this year.
Columbus wins on 11/1 and 11/4 against DC United and the Red Bulls.
Atlanta wins on 11/25 against the Red Bulls, and then lose in the second leg, returning the trophy to the now eliminated Red Bulls. The trophy ends there this season.

Playoffs Combined
Columbus wins it on 11/1 against DC United.
The Red Bulls win it in the Conference Semifinals.
Atlanta United wins it in the Conference Finals, and holds onto it against the Timbers in MLS Cup. The trophy ends there this season.

Regular Season
New York Red Bulls hold this trophy at the end of the regular season.

Reverse
Montreal hold this trophy at the end of the regular season.

All Leagues
Portland wins it in the first leg on 11/4, and Seattle wins it back in the second leg on 11/8. Since Seattle was eliminated from the playoffs, the trophy ends there this season.

All Leagues (Provisional)
Louisville wins it against NYR2 on 11/2, and holds it in the championship game against Phoenix Rising on 11/8. This trophy ends there this season.

As mentioned earlier, I'm maintaining two versions of the all leagues version for the time being. I would still appreciate input from people about which they think is most appropriate.

In any case the 5 trophies all end with different teams this season, which is REALLY weird.

As mentioned earlier, I'm maintaining two versions of the all leagues version for the time being. I would still appreciate input from people about which they think is most appropriate. Currently, my thought is to keep the provisional one until it pops back into MLS, then probably drop it.

 

What about a playoffs only.
