Posts from Duel tournament.

First stage:
Depending on the number of players, there will be one or more groups.
Within each group, each player plays two games against every other player.
For winning one game, players receive 1 point, for winning both games, the winner receives 3 points.

The banning process works as follows:
From the 24 available heroes, each player takes turns banning one hero until only 12 remain (each player bans 6 heroes). That is, the choice will be from the 12 remaining heroes, and the player who banned second chooses first (determined by a draw).
In the second game, it is not allowed to choose the heroes used in the first game, i.e., the choice will be from 10 heroes. The player who banned first chooses first.

The 8 players with the most points advance to the second stage.

Second stage:
8 players advance to this stage.
There are 24 heroes in the duel list. These 24 heroes are evenly distributed across "cards." This results in 8 cards, each with three heroes. The heroes are distributed in approximately equal proportions. Players do not know which heroes are on the cards (initially, the heroes are unknown to everyone).
Depending on the placement, certain bonuses will be distributed (viewing the cards and possibly something else).
4 pairs play 3 games each against each other. Then, the winner of each pair gains control of the heroes from the loser's card.
Then, N duels are played between the winners.

Next:
In progress.

The banning process works like this:
Out of 24 available heroes, each player takes turns banning one hero until only 12 remain (each player bans 6 heroes).

Am I understanding correctly that the opponents share a common list of heroes? And that 12 heroes remain for both of them?
Wouldn't it be better to do it the old way in tournaments, where each player bans 12 heroes from the other, and each player is left with 12 heroes? Because if there are only 12 heroes for both, the player who chooses first has an advantage, as they can take the strongest hero.

Did I understand correctly, do opponents have a SHARED list of heroes? Does that leave 12 heroes for both of them?
And what about how it was done in tournaments before? When each player eliminates 12 heroes from the other's list, and each player is left with 12 heroes. Because if there are 12 heroes for both, the player who chooses first has an advantage; they can take the strongest hero.

Yes, the list is shared.
We need something new.
And it's not good to leave the strongest heroes; only a couple of heroes have an absolutely impenetrable build (and even that is relative), and there are counter-heroes for the rest.

Of course, if a miracle happens and 15 people write here and give me well-reasoned arguments why we need to revert to the "12 heroes per opponent" elimination, then I will have no choice but to change the elimination method.
But I think I'm more likely to wake up in the morning and see Jesus in iron armor with a Templar emblem, casting a Tunguska meteorite to destroy alien robots attacking Earth, than that will happen.

So, here's a duel tournament on the League. On one hand, it's difficult to run two tournaments at once... but on the other hand, it just leads to the rules being as different as possible from the established ones, and the dates are not yet determined. The process is still ongoing.

So, what’s up? How’s your progress?

Yes, I agree.
P.S. If anyone plays on the league and wants to participate here, they won't be at a disadvantage, as these are duel tournaments and they can easily be combined.

Arandor, you can even combine military biochemistry and McDonald's (though apparently quite successfully), but the combination itself won't yield a good result.
I've been very busy this week (even though, in theory, I should be free), which is the first reason for the delay.
Secondly, the Tournaments — it's very hard to play a whole batch of tournaments at once during the early stages.

I think there's no rush, and besides, there's time to study and prepare some things.
When the first stage of the tournament on the League ends, I'll launch a tournament on HeroesWorld. I think that'll be good — the best compromise.

Ask your questions, curse, and criticize >:3

Why isn't it lit up?) Mine is lit up! On the 17th, I have school, and I'll be coming home late, plus a couple of assignments I need to study for, and the dean will be grading them.
I still don't understand why it's not possible to combine them?) It's not maps, it's duels/a game with one person (2 duels) will only take an hour) I don't believe that no one has time in the evening, after work, school, or something else. And if they don't, then why do they even need this tournament?)
P.S. Thanks for allowing me to swear and criticize, I appreciate it.

Isn't it possible to really mess with your head like that?) If someone doesn't have time to play for 2-3 hours just for these duels, it doesn't mean they "shouldn't sign up."
By the way, you've been burning out for a month now.

Nuff said.

well, one session ended for me, and another one is about to start.

Why not implement it for random maps with random heroes? I think it would be cool!

Hello! I wanted to know if the tournament will actually happen or not. Not everyone plays on the League, you know. As I understand from the posts, many people want a tournament.

The tournament will happen! It is planned to launch it after the first round of the tournament on the League is finished, which is a reasonable decision. In short, it will be soon.

Yes, yes, it will all be there, with blackjack and cookies. Soon.

So, you decided to take care of me too? :smile43: That's so sweet of you! ^___^.
