While searching for someone to replace me as the ML specialist on my faction, I dm'd all of my past opponents to see if they might know someone who would be interested in replacing me. The result was as expected: 100% of my opponents mentioned that they did not know anyone. Each player added that they were also looking to find someone to replace them, and that they were only doing ML out of necessity.

Given that 0% of the player base wants to play the role of ML specialist (or an extremely low % at best), I would suggest that we have two UL specialists, or possibly a UL cup meta. We could also have a UL premiere specialist. Anyway, I think this would be a positive change, despite all the dust we've spent on L50 non legendary ML mons (lol).
