1vs1 Ladder marathon

Postby Voodoo » 22 Jan 2015, 18:47

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

Some tooling to show who's leading it could be nice :)

How about some changes first to make ladder less bullshit? Otherwise you'll grow tired of the marathon pretty soon, getting same 3 maps over and over again :|

Like the idea but seariously, could use better timing.

I don't know if the person with the most time to play the game should get an award.
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?

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 :/
