Literally everyone could see this coming, and it is only going to get worse with the upcoming expansion of CL, too.

Feels like we're approaching the point where rules about minutes played per week/month/year might need to be regulated.

Feels like we’re approaching the point where rules about minutes played per week/month/year might need to be regulated.

It's complicated to legislate for, though. It's not just about limiting time played as a blanket policy across leagues. Context is important. Have a listen to this podcast with performance manager I posted a link to a few days back:

Specifically the part starting at 33:15. It's not a straightforward problem to solve, sadly.
