This seems like a decent opportunity for a draft to me, in all honesty.

1. PE2K Member's familiarity with each other:

Lets be honest here, WAR can often be a bit of a "Good Ole Boys Club". Since people from PE2K are more familiar with each other and with WAR, they will probably tend to clump together, (unintentionally) excluding the newer transplants from PokeStadium from working with more experienced WAR participants. A draft is an opportunity for these people to be mixed together, across the entire participatory pool of WAR

2. PE2K Members experience with WAR:

Just as how I described how the draft could work as something of a "mixer" for newer and older members, its also an excellent way to divide up the experience among teams from people with several WARs under their belts to the individuals who have never before participated. Honestly, I think to them, a draft may seem a lot less intimidating; they don't have to worry about appealing to complete strangers to join their team, which could arguably be just as intimidating to the more timid members.
