Regarding the pair tournament – I agree with Leo: it’s completely off the mark.
We once played a three-player game with Brodyaga and DVP. Even considering that we have roughly the same skill level, a good online connection, and a decent speed of clearing maps, this dubious experience took as much time as three regular games.
I’m in favor of team or group play with artificial “filtering” of newcomers, so that players can play for longer.
