I have got the 2019 playoffs working. However, I want to make sure all the other ancillary features (such as team history, team records, etc) are all working properly before I release it (as well as making sure I didn't break any existing playoff variations).
My plan is to release this in the next few days. Worst case I should release it on 9/22.
Upcoming Playoff 2019 Update
Playoff 2019 Update
I am still working on the expanded Worlds league with up to 8 more conferences based on the 2019 league format.
My plan is to release it whenever it is finished so it can be used as soon as possible. Worst case, I will give another update on Sunday, September 15th about my progress.

Next Update
I'm looking to expand the ability to adjust the league format by year (currently default and 2019). 2019 is coded for everything but the Worlds types (only LPL was different). Next update I'm looking to work on an expanded worlds with up to 8 more conferences. This is going to require a lot of new team names. To help out you can suggest new names here.

Champion Popover Added For Draft
Champion Popover Added For Draft
The Champion Draft Popover displays other champions in these categories:
Synergy
Counter
Counters
This should make that data a little more accessible, help new users do pick/bans, and save time. Feel free to let me know how you like or what you would change.
Bug Fix
For the Worlds only version without Ladder, if you didn't make the playoffs the League Dashboard would crash. This is now fixed.
It was common to come across it when switching to a bad team. Also, because it is the page shown when entering a league it prevented users from using the league.
Thanks for everyone who reported the bug and to /u/LiterallyToast in particular for sharing the file with the issue that led to the bug fix.
Next Update
The next update will be in two weeks on Sunday, June 9th.
Feel free to send in any bug reports as well as other quality of life improvement ideas.
Thanks!
Champion Synergy/Counter Pages Updated
Champion Synergy/Counter Pages Updated
5/12/2019
You can now use a dropdown to select which champion/hero you want to view the synergy or counter data for rather than have it all displayed at once. I'm hoping this makes that data a lot more accessible. It also frees up a lot of space on those pages so they could be combined or expanded. Feel free to offer suggestions.
Next Update
I want to do some more quality of life improvements of existing features similar to the above. I'll probably be focusing on the pick/ban page. So feel free to offer any suggestions you have. I'm thinking about making the synergy/countering data more accessible there. The next update will be in two weeks on Sunday, May 26th.
Feel free to send in any bug reports as well as other quality of life improvements.
Thanks!

Bug Fixes / Next Update
Bug Fixes
4/21/2019
Made an adjustment that should help the game run smoother, but it may slow it down as well. This could be a game option at some point so users can adjust it depending how powerful their computer is. In my testing the current setting was the smoothest with the least speed penalty.
Adjusted the Tools/Autoplay feature to be 1 year for the larger game types (Ladder, Worlds, Worlds w/ Ladder) so they would run smoother.
Fixed an AI trade bug that sometimes stopped the game from running.
Overall, in my testing there weren't many issues that prevented the game from running that weren't just memory, saving, and processing related. So I've tried to ease those burdens up when running the game. Feel free to give feedback on any issues you run into and how you like the changes.
Next Update
I've still got some bug fixes and quality of life changes left to do. So I will do another update next week on Sunday the 28th with more updates on that front.
Thanks!
