Posts from Duel tournament.

That's interesting :) :O
Ideally, a duel without any extra stuff (patches, mods, etc.) :o

I would like an arena + TE.

Hey, there will probably be a patch. We both have version 3.0, so we need to update to 3.1. And it's better to do it together, because we won't be able to play otherwise.

No, well, if anything, I have the downloaded patch... It just messes up the campaign in Heroes 5 -_-. On the other hand, I'm sure I won't play the campaign anymore... *SCRATCH*(I've already replayed the boring campaign for Arantir three times, and I'll just hang myself in the 4th -_-.)

We can play arena even without the TE mod, let's play!

I agree with Vip! :)
I would like to play an arena with the RTA rules, but preferably without the TE mod, please.:rolleyes:

yes, you can have an arena without TE

I'm for regular duels :)

And for a medal with Leslie! xD

I'm in favor of duels. I wouldn't say that few people are interested. I think people will gather (there are still people in the counter-hero theme in duel mode), because playing a few standard duels takes significantly less time than playing maps or RTA.
Regarding the conditions, here's an option:
1 game. Allow the opponent to choose 6 (or another number, at the discretion of the organizers). Player 1 chooses the hero first, then player 2. (cannot be changed).
2 game. Swap heroes.
3 game. Allow the opponent to choose 6. Player 2 chooses the hero first, then player 1.
4 game. Swap heroes.
The conditions are, of course, not new. But in my opinion, they are quite interesting.

I'm in favor of these conditions.

I'm for tournaments, regular duels. Can you tell me what the phrase means: "We allow the opponent to have 6 (or another number, at the organizers' discretion)" - 6 of what?

Here's a summary:

The tournament will be based on standard duels.
Patch 3.1 is required; no mods are allowed.
I think the first stage should be conducted according to the following rules: ban 12 heroes, 2 (or 3) duels, previously selected heroes cannot be repeated (possibly, heroes selected by the opponent are also banned), players choose in turn.
As a result, 8 players with the highest number of points will advance to the second stage.
I think that if there are no well-reasoned objections, I will do the following:

And here's how the second stage can be conducted:
24 heroes are divided into 8 groups of 3.
The heroes are divided into 3 groups and placed on "cards"; by choosing a card, the player gains control of the corresponding three heroes.
The player who took first place has the opportunity to see which heroes are on 4 cards, the player who took second place has the right to see the heroes on 3 cards, 3rd place - on two, 4th - on two, 5th and 6th - on 1 card.

The player who took a lower place chooses the first hero; the selected heroes are banned.
In the second stage, we will play "every player against every other player."

I anticipate a lot of negativity; if it's not well-received, I'll change it to this:

Ban 14 heroes.
The player lower in the tournament standings chooses the hero first.
In the second duel, they switch heroes.
Then, the player higher in the standings chooses first.
Then, they switch heroes.

Two players advance to the third stage (the final, as before).

That's all.

basically, it's not bad... =)

well, yes, I agree too) I just don't quite understand about the cards – who will assign heroes to them, etc.?

I’ll probably launch the tournament on March 1st; in the meantime, I’ll post the rules in some thread, and later I’ll leave a link to it in the first post.

I'm for Dungeon faction, level 14.
Where can I sign up for the tournament? :)

Registration is not yet open. Vis says he will launch it on March 1st, so we'll have to wait with registration for now :)
