Your ratings are not taken into account when organizing Tournaments. I can give an example of my acquaintance, RoninHW, who in his first game in the Tournament will play against the CIS champion (see the M200 #7 bracket). I don't see any fairness; please point it out.

When I gave the example of chess, I was talking about Tournaments that divide players into categories based on their rating, and Tournaments are held only within them, that is, a 3rd-ranked player only plays against a 3rd-ranked player, and a 2nd-ranked player only plays against a 2nd-ranked player, and not the world champion against an unranked player. I understand that there may not be enough players for a full-fledged ranking system; Heroes is not as popular as chess, but you can still create at least some semblance of it so that such absurdity does not happen.
If you participate in a serious, high-level Tournament, you are a priori ready to play against any player in the Tournament bracket. You came to show your level, you came to win, and ideally become the champion.
But winning against beginners and watching how the "daddies" eliminate each other, and then taking the quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals by luck/misclick/due to the draw – it doesn't require much intelligence.

What is the status of the Tournament? What status can a sandbox have, which is necessary for adapting newly arrived players? Or am I not understanding the concept of the event?
In this Tournament, you can make a name for yourself. This is not a place for those who want to learn how to play – here you can show that you should be considered a serious player and that you have already outgrown the "sandbox".
