Wicc - just drop the idea that there should be only one champion.

2Kostya: The reasons why I suggested 2 brackets have already been described in detail, both here and on VT. Please, take a look if you're not too lazy). And please forgive the arguments against my scheme at the level of "in my opinion, there should be only one champion" - they don't seem very convincing.

I think the option with two parallel Tournaments is even less successful. Simply because in this case, the composition of both Tournaments will be significantly weakened.
The CIS Champion is simply much better than the champion of some version.
In general, I completely agree with:
Therefore, I am happy with the option of a WT only Tournament, as it has been for all the years before.
Also, I am generally happy with the option of a SoD only Tournament for the reasons stated on the first page.
And what legitimacy will the winner of the SoD Tournament have, if half of the real contenders for victory do not participate in it? There will be none, in general...

But holding such a Tournament with two brackets is a format that will allow everyone who wants (and can) to gather together for such a total gathering of Heroes players.

I suggest waiting until New Year's and the release of the new version of the World Tree. Then the discussion will be more focused. That is, we come back to where we started.

But I am not satisfied with the option of two parallel tournaments with a weakened lineup - it will be a profanation of the idea of a tournament for the strongest, which makes me not even want to come.
It is still not very clear how any of the strongest players, familiar with both Tournaments and SoD, could choose to play SoD?
Where would the "weakened lineup" of the Tournaments bracket come from?
Sorry if I missed it - has anyone already posted in this thread that they, playing both Tournaments and SoD, will choose to play SoD if there are two brackets, and why? :rolleyes:
Well sure, I haven't played for a couple of months almost - have such terrible bugs been crammed into Tournaments that SoD has already become more interesting from a competitive standpoint? Where is the fuss coming from anyway? Who specifically among the strongest Tournaments players plans to choose the SoD bracket and why exactly?

Which of the strongest Warlords of the Third Testament specifically plans to choose the Shades of Darkness map and why?

Just in case - this is not a direct answer to my question.
Specifically, which of the strongest ВТ players plan to move to the SoD bracket and for what reason, if there will be two brackets?
It's just that if there isn't a single such person, then discussions about a "weakened roster" are pure theory. Even if only one is found - it's still pure theory, but at least I'd like to see who that one person is.

I think you're just engaging in empty talk. This isn't the first time, by the way. Try to discuss things in a meaningful way, instead of just going back and forth with arguments, looking for minor flaws in the wording.

Wick, you stated your opinion that someone will go for the "sweet meadow," and because of that, the idea of having two separate game modes is bad.
I then asked again – is anyone specifically planning to do that? Because if no one is going to do it, or if only one person is going to do it, then I'm not the one engaging in pointless speculation (on this specific issue). What's the point of discussing a theoretical danger?

Why is the default CIS version of the game suddenly forcing players to use the World Tree (WT) map? There has never been any question that the CIS version is played on a map other than WT, as voted by the players. Has the WT map become so buggy, or is something else influencing this?
Perhaps another vote for the map version should be held, preferably after testing the new WT update. If the results are truly 50/50, we should consider running two tournaments, one for WT and one for SoD HD.
P.S. Those who voted for a particular map should play on that map.

Maybe keep both options, VT and SoD, with a pre-drafted regulation for both versions, and hold a vote in Minsk upon arrival, where the voting will be done specifically by those who intend to play this very championship?

you'd think that if someone wants to go, but the version is chosen in advance and it's not the one they'd like to play, then that someone won't go)
