CIS-2014 in Minsk.

8 rounds is just lol. Don't make people laugh, Yura. The whole idea with different versions and two parallel tournaments is unsuccessful. There should be one single, undisputed champion. IMHO

Did you read the text carefully?

The 8 rounds will be only for the organizers, while players can choose themselves — 4 rounds here or 5 rounds there or, if they have enough health, both here and there.

Whether it's a good idea or not depends on the players themselves — if enough people want to join the SoD tournament, then why not hold it?

Things are tough with single champions right now; this idea seems unattainable to me, so why bother?
