Soda could really use a high-quality tournament right now.
And I would gladly throw in some prize money for it.
But what is being planned is, unfortunately, not at all what is needed.
Main problems:
1. Rejecting HW rules — these rules are more than adequate and have been developed based on games of top players over many years.
Abandoning them is like allowing slide tackles from behind at the FIFA World Cup just because the conditional teams of Mozambique and Benin don't quite understand this rule.
2. Complete disregard for the main sporting principle — identifying the strongest. Taking anyone who is willing to respond, regardless of their skill level — who would be interested in watching such players?
3. A very loose interpretation of players' affiliation with national teams — the determining factor should be citizenship.
4. Template pool — why add templates that are outright boring and uninteresting.
What can be suggested:
1. Play with HW rules
2. Make a reasonable template pool (Jebus Cross, Diamond, Mininosta, 6LM, Anarchy, Spider). If things get really bad over time, leave 2-3 of the most dynamic ones, for example:
Jebus Cross, Anarchy or Jebus Cross, Anarchy, Diamond.
3. Direct maximum efforts towards attracting the dads from HeroesWorld, with actual citizenship of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Poland, Hungary.
4. From the found no-names, assemble 2-3 national teams, no more.
Make 2 groups of 3-4 teams.
Group stage: everyone plays everyone.
Top 2 teams advance from each group.
Then semifinals and final.
I.e., trade quantity for quality, and this will partially solve the time issue as well.
It's clear that point 3 is the hardest.
Pulling the guys away from zombies running in circles with golems is quite a task.
And if it's absolutely impossible, then it's better not to hold such a tournament at all.
