DeathBall League should have 5 mins sudden death OT and then if its still tied after that it becomes a tie game.
Post your thoughts.

i think 30 mins is enough to decide a winner or a draw game...35 min will be too muck imo

i think that if two teams are tied after 30, its a pretty good game, might as well give them 5 more minutes to battle it out and hopefully get a winner

Maybe for the NA leagues, if that's how you wanna do it. If a tie is what is deserved, a tie it is.

I'm against it, because most europeans are used to to tied matches instaed of overtime.

IMO, i really don't care, because usually we don't tie, you euros tho, just wait for the perfect moment to strike, if you dont see an opening, you pass back. You could prolly score one or 2 goals, then tell your own teammates to not go past half. Resulting in pure defense and wasting time.

pointless to enforce a winner

It's a rule thats used in cups because you always need a winner or a loser in a cup game, but for league games it's just pointless.

how about optional OT where the 2 teams decide i fthe want it before the game...

The teams both take the risk of taking 0 points if they agree to it, and it will always be a tie between 2 evenly match teams (usually) so giving them an extra 5 minutes will probably still be a tie. Its more for if your keeper's connection dies and you dont know for 30 seconds so they get a goal or 2...
