Homepage Premium Overhaul

The homepage rebuilt as a six-chapter magazine - cinematic hero, Owner gold card, sticky launch bar, Champions Wall, editorial FAQ, and broadcast pulse.

Added

Cinematic full-bleed hero with ken-burns slow zoom and broadcast pulse on the countdown card

Numbered chapter eyebrows - 01 Pressbox · 02 Six Ways · 03 Standard · 04 Pick a Lane · 05 Straight Answers · 06 The Server

Playfair Display editorial accents on hero sub-decks and pull-quote bands

Champions Wall - identity-of-record section listing every franchise crowned

Gold Owner-tier card on the product rail (S1 3v3 city ownership is the headline buy)

Sticky launch-event bar that follows you down the page

FAQ rebuilt as a magazine 'Letter to the editor' treatment with numbered Q/A rows

Discord CTA upgraded to a full chapter section ('06 / The Server')

Player-of-the-Week sidebar shows the six OCR stat-category bars used to score POTW

Standings sidebar adds a 7-day registration-pace sparkline

Changed

Real nano-banana cover photography replaces every news-card placeholder

News-card hover zoom (1.04x) and editorial pull-quote band between sections

Footer rebuilt as an editorial closing zone with a 4-column sitemap

Hero CTA glow, staggered hero-line reveal, and partner-strip polish

Hero content scopes to the active league channel (5v5 vs 3v3)

Fixed

MarqueeStrip removed - David flagged it as a second navbar

Duplicate quick-jump nav under the LeagueTicker removed; switcher now scrolls to the hub

Corrected 3v3 S1 league entry prices on the product rail - Owner $25→$50, Custom Team $50→$75
