Nice! I was thinking of running a tournament like this to test any major changes to the ladder, or the team matchmaker. Would be really interesting to see how this goes, but yes if it goes well you (although I'm happy to help or take the lead) should re-run this if there's a change to ratings, matchmaking or something else significant in the ladder.

Great idea for a tourney. Is it bad that noobs have a bigger chance at winning this? I don't think so. In most tourneys only the pros have a chance of winning it, so that's a good change. Also you only need one opponent, so if two pros get together and play a lot of matches against each other, they can still win

A tourney that involves ladder seems pretty awesome, it requires less work & planning to play a game (For both the TD and the
participants). But the most wins/week seems a little unfair, since noobs like me can find matches much easier. Unless higher
rated players farm the same player over and over :/

Again, how about we set a maximum like 50 games?

Most people have a ~50% winrate, so if someone just plays more games than others they will win by default.
And the people who can pull off a higher winrate can't get that number of games because of the lack of players.

How about we set a maximum, like 50 games or so?

1vs1 Ladder marathon

2015-01-22T18:47:04+02:00

Hey hey,

i have an new idea. How about a 1vs1 ladder marathon?

Let's say it goes for one week and the player who has the most victories is the winner and will win an avatar of choise* (faction avatars for 2. and 3. place).
Just post the replay ids of your wins here after this week. So any thoughts?

greetings Voodoo

*no personal/ special avatars
