These two points are just nonsense...
question:
And why should a mercenary play under number 3 if they are the strongest?
1. The team tournament is held to consolidate Clans and identify the strongest among them.
I think it's obvious that mercenaries shouldn't be showing the real strength of the Clan, right? ;)
example:
In the previous "inter-clan" tournament, Aldegir, playing as a mercenary, didn't even play as number 1, but won all three micro-duels and scored points... is such a result objective?
P.S. In general, read the topic related to the previous tournament, look at the statistics - many questions and misunderstandings will disappear :)
