Post-tournament analysis and discussion of the CIS Tournament Regulations.
This was more of a CIS Literoball Tournament than a Heroes tournament. I think this has been the case not just this year...
If you look at this tournament as it is, you get the following:
1. The name is too grand, it even creates some hype. But in reality, what do you need to do to win the tournament? Beat 4 or maybe 5 people, and since there was no initial selection for this tournament, the first two opponents might be below average. The atmosphere (drunkenness and other nonsense), which shouldn't be present at a tournament with such a name, is confirmed by the photos posted in the neighboring thread. All of this gives the tournament an importance rating of around 3/10.
2. The purpose of the meeting: to chat with old friends, to meet new people, to relax and unwind, and if it's held in an interesting place, it's also a kind of trip. Here, there are many positives, and you could even give it a 15/10 rating in terms of importance.
And as a result: the best way to reinforce all the existing interest in this meeting and the motivation to attend is to call it a CIS event, because without such a name, everything would look different. In reality, many people would initially agree, but when making the final decision whether to go or not (a simple meeting of Heroes players wouldn't seem as effective), I think the percentage of those who wouldn't go would be higher.
The conclusion is obvious: the gathering is great, and its own interest is ruining the tournament. If we want to have a quality tournament, we need to organize and run it in a quality manner. Otherwise, is it even worth calling it a CIS tournament?
