“And once again, into battle!”

I propose the following tournament structure, which, if possible, will accommodate the wishes of the participants who have already expressed their opinions and continue the series of themed tournaments on the forum. Team Formation: - Option 1: Divide all tournament participants into two opposing teams (preferably randomly): good forces and evil magic (Haven, Sylvan, Dungeon, Necropolis) versus good magic and evil forces (Academy, Fortress, Inferno, Stronghold); - Option 2: Each player independently chooses one of the two proposed faction combinations, strictly according to the classification: either good forces and evil magic or good magic and evil forces. Method of Competition: - Option 1: One team competes against the other (an equal number of participants is required in each team); games are played according to the "each against each" scheme; - Option 2: Every player for themselves; games are played according to the scheme I initially proposed in the tournament thread: the first round is a random draw, and all subsequent rounds depend on the results of the previous rounds. - Option 3: Every player for themselves; games are played according to the "double elimination" system. - Option 4: Every player for themselves; games are played according to the scheme: group stage (3 or 4 groups); playoff stage using a simple Olympic system.
