Friends who play in Empire leagues seem to enjoy them. However, it creates a weird dynamic where collusion is encouraged. Basically when a team is poised to repeat, the other teams trade to stack a different team or teams to take them down.
Not sure I would enjoy that personally, but haven’t tried it myself.
Essentially the goal is to ensure nobody gets the chance to repeat and take the big pot and dissolve the league

There are other ways to add the aspect of a empire pot to a league without trying to stop someone from winning the league and ending it. One way I have seen is a challenge format. Where each year you can challenge up to 4 teams and If you win those games you collect a token or some kind of symbol showing you beat that team. Each year you can challenge teams until someone beats everyone in the league and earns all token. then the winner earns 60% of the bonus pot, next highest in tokens gets 20% next 2 highest 10%. Then it would all start over again. The nice thing is if there are ties, they spit the % since this is a bonus pot not the main. Anyway just saying there are ways to add a additional pot that promotes longevity without ending the league.

I don’t think I’d like that at all. Dropped my bookie and am really enjoying local $$$ ATS pickems. There is money to be made as long as you are consistent
