The only way you'll change the perception about your team is by winning. The wins are coming soon for the Yeti, but they haven't come yet. We even talked in our discord with serious concern that we could lose the game last night at home versus you guys, the defending champs worried of a team coming off 30 consecutive losses. But until you break that streak of consecutive losses, don't expect the jabs to stop coming.
In the meantime, and it took me a while to figure this out, if someone writes something negative about your team, don't get mad and react in their thread or make a post addressing it. Its a bad look for you and your team. The best thing to do is just make a counter post that highlights what you want about your team. So if someone does a power rankings downplaying your team, ask a player on your team to write an article highlighting the progression the Yeti have made with gaining TPE compared to the rest of the league. If someone says you have no plan for the future, write an article talking about the moves the team has made to set themselves up for the bright future they have, etc.
Everyone knows the Yeti have a bright future and the streak will be snapped sooner rather than later.
