I'd like to share what I believe would potentially be the best lists for a PES with only classic all star teams. The following lists will also provide an overall view of squads that are currently missing an all stars team in the forum. The teams highlighted in blue already have a thread.

● The criteria used for clubs, sorted by weight, are as following:
- main continental competition wins
- domestic league wins
- other major continental competition wins
- times as runner-up in the main continental competition (semifinals and quarter-finals are also considered for teams in the "Rest of" groups)
- times as domestic league runner-up
- Intercontinental Cup/Club World Cup wins
- least valuable continental competition wins (ex. Fairs Cup, Conference League, CONCACAF League, AFC Cup, etc.)
- times as runner-up in any secondary continental competition
- times as third place in the domestic league
- domestic cup wins
- times as Intercontinental Cup/Club World Cup runner-up
- times as runner-up in the least valuable continental competition (semifinals are also considered for teams in the "Rest of" groups)
- times as runner-up in any domestic cup
- Campeonato Paulista, Campeonato Carioca and Torneio Rio-São Paulo (for Brazilian teams)
- any Supercup wins
- other state league titles (for Brazilian teams)
- participations in the domestic league (continental tournaments are considered for teams in the "Rest of" groups).

● The criteria used for national teams, sorted by weight, are as following:
- World Cup wins
- main continental competition wins (minor weight for OFC Oceania Cup)
- times as World Cup runner-up
- times as runner-up in the main continental competition
- other major competition wins (the editions of the Olympic Games taken into account are 1910-1964 and 1984-1988)
- times as World Cup semifinalist
- times as runner-up in other major competitions
- times as World Cup quarter-finalist
- times as semifinalist in the major continental competition
- participations in the World Cup
- least valuable competitions wins (OFC Nations Cup, FIFA Arab Cup, AFC Challenge Cup)
- times as quarter finalist in the major continental competition
- participations in the major continental competition
- times as semifinalist in other major competitions
- times as runner-up in the least valuable competitions
- best ever final place in major competitions (when two or more teams have the same points)
- highest ever FIFA rank (when the previous requirement isn't met).

Champions League winning teams or World Cup winning national teams, for example, aren't automatically placed higher than teams without such accomplishments as everything is considered.

● Most editions of PES have different leagues and the leagues don't always have the same number of teams. For example German Bundesliga was last featured in PES 6, second divisions were first added in PES 2015, Italian Serie B had 22 teams until 2017-18 and then 20 since 2019-20, and so on. Therefore, I include teams for every league that was featured in-game since PES 5 and up to PES 2021.

● Considering the first two points, the teams are sorted in a "meritocratic" order. Between the brackets next to the league's name are the minimum and maximum numbers of teams ever available in PES for that specific league.


Down below is a map of the number of teams for each league from PES 5 to PES 2021 (it should be correct). Feel free to give suggestions to change teams or the order and explain the reason.

Thanks mate! I'll probably start a new thread but keep this one until I cover all the leagues that are present here.

Hi, I also developed an OF ALL STARS and I hope to share some videos here on the forum in the future. On the methodology you followed to insert the teams, however, I do not agree very much for example in putting teams like Pro Vercelli in Serie A, which had its most successful period in an era where there were very few teams participating in tournaments. In my opinion, perhaps it would make more sense to insert a team like Brescia in its place. Or in Serie B where I see Casale and Pro Patria in place of Foggia and Avellino just because maybe Casale won a championship in the distant 1914.

This is one of the things I'm working on. Many countries will have two lists that separate amateur and professional era or periods with different formats or number of teams. Therefore, the points distributed to each team depend also on this among other factors. Italy, for example, will have an all-time list and a second one based off only results post-1926, including the three seasons pre-Serie A as the Divisione Nazionale played from 1926 to 1929 was very close to the Serie A that was established in 1929, just with two groups.
