I was looking through old tournament threads, and in some previous tournaments, separate groups were created for those who wanted to play HotA.
Here, the situation is different; SoD is the official version of the tournament. Most of the people who voted against HotA said that if someone wants to play HotA, they can, but they want to play SoD against me. If one player doesn't agree to play HotA, then by default, games are played on SoD.
Besides the negative opinions, I would like to hear why not? You say the tournament is official and regular, and there have always been only SoD games in the groups. But why not make changes that are primarily interesting to the participants? Listen to the opinions and wishes of the participants and add to the tournament rules what is interesting to them? Essentially, the games in the tournament are the same as fun games, only with a competitive element that adds extra interest. I believe that the tournament is held for the participants and should be primarily interesting to them. Adding HotA as an alternative version of the tournament will not affect its conduct in any way.
