Who is stronger hasn't ended yet, and in this regard I suggest thinking about the next tournament. The proposed formula:
1. A thematic race round-robin for 16 players (I think that's roughly the number of active, decently skilled players in the community).
2. Each participant plays only one pre-selected race throughout the tournament, mirror matches are excluded. A total of 2 players per race participate in the tournament.
3. The selection of races is done as follows: participants send the judges a list of races ranked by preference. A total of the top-16 registered participants are selected based on their rating on the portal. Participants with the worst rating on the portal have priority in choosing a race (tournament results from this year can be considered). This way, 16 players are selected, each assigned one race — the rest are alternates.
4. Based on the results of the round-robin tournament, the strongest race is determined by the total games of the two players who played for it.
I await your comments.
First of all, "Who is stronger" hasn't ended yet.
Secondly, a pure round-robin for 16 players means 15 rounds, and what do you mean by a race round-robin?
Thirdly, playing one race is just... (gets boring) — this is from personal experience in participating in thematic tournaments.
Fourth, Necro/Orc/Dungeon will dominate — they are still imbalanced races that are banned in 95% of cases; these races will only have difficult games against each other.
Fifth, what does the portal rating have to do with anything? It's an unrelated resource and has 0 relation to HeroesWorld.
And lastly, this tournament will not determine the strongest race, because there is no such thing — there are several :) So it's good that there are ideas, but this tournament concept, IMHO, will not be interesting for participants.
