+Two more from Oliver's screenshots:

+- **THE LEAGUE PANEL.** The generic MATCH SETUP screen showed the player block (tour/kit/skin) on
+  the league modes too — redundant since the identity moved to the card. On zombie/cup the block
+  now steps aside (syncSetup toggles, "01 · YOUR LEAGUE") for the league writ large: the breathing
+  badge, "LEAGUE N — NAME" in the league colour, a felled tally line ("2 OF 4 FELLED · THE CUP IS
+  THE WAY UP" / "ALL 4 FELLED — TAKE THE CUP"), and the band's roster as head tiles — felled
+  bodies in colour with their ALL-TIME count (stats' per-foe tallies, key 'L'+index), the rest
+  grey; the band's top rung wears the red border, it is the final. Every other mode keeps the
+  player block (main.buildLeaguePanel).
+- **The ribbon grew** (13px type, taller band), per his call.
