2v2 format sounds a lot better for 7K, excited to see how it turns out.
While I wholly understand the situation for small signup numbers, I believe that you need to understand the situation with 2v2 matches having smaller room for errors, be boring.juankristal wrote:
The room of error is smaller, yes, but it is for both teams!
this suggestion also fine.Gekido- wrote:
Would it be a bad idea to wait and see how many players sign up from each country to determine if the format should be 2v2 or 3v3? I'm fairly certain that the turnout will be low enough that 2v2 is most likely necessary, but in the case that enough people sign up, 3v3 should still be an option.
If a mappool is diverse enough that it's possible for each team to attack each other on every front, but it's clear that a team is elevated in experience compared to the other, then an alternative source of entertainment comes from seeing players excel at maps and going above and beyond to get ludicrous scores that even the most knowledgeable won't be able to predict. Having luck in this situation screws the star from shining, which is especially damning as it's out of their control, since that's what luck is.Evening wrote:
Not sure how you would include variety without compromising accurate skill measurement and also being entertaining (subjectively).
Personally don't see these kind of matches being entertaining if they are straightforward and predictable.
This will only frustrate players because, again, they feel it's out of their control. The mappool has to be enjoyable to get the best out of people, and having them go into a game without a clue on what to do differently is going to make the players swear at the selectors, then potentially ruin the atmosphere of the whole match.Evening wrote:
I do agree that world cups' intentions are to test skill level. However, I feel that it should focus on a balance of luck and fairness rather than trying to restrict it to a 0% luck case in which is just total fairness.
I mean no offense but can you repeat this? I don't want to reply to something I don't think I understand fully.Evening wrote:
I understand that all players cannot go through an ideal world cup that will leave them all satisfied, but I just don't agree with the notion of having the main idea of the tournament to be as accurate as possible in determining skill level.
well that would just be unfair to the people who've worked their asses off to get to where they are todayKephin wrote:
is it possible to implement restriction at forming a team?
for example, a team consisted of 6 people is limited as:
1 person whose global rank is between 1-100
3 person whose global rank is between 101-1000
2 person whose global rank is between 1001-5000
