AuthorKnockout tournament
We have seen many tournaments such as survival, blindfold etc... This tournament that i'm suggesting is a kind of knockout tournament like that we see in sports like baseball, football etc.. Here a group of 8 players is to be made and let to battle duels.. player who wins advances to the next round and in the same way the winner will get a weapon or gold etc... and each battle should be a blindfold battle with a player of random level....In this course once a player once automatically the next battle should load and no lose of health,,mana and durabality...
And how about timings, a vietnamese, south amrican, european player should play, at 2 am, and noon or like this :)
In other words, you want a battle where players fight each other randomly in 3 battles in a row, of a random level.
Problems:
1) and each battle should be a blindfold battle with a player of random level. So a level 8 fights a level 6?
2) In this course once a player wins automatically the next battle should load and no lose of health,,mana and durabality.... So what about players who purposely waste time/go afk as there is no loss of durability and then causes the opponent, who happens to only have 2 hours to play, to run out of time and go afk when (s)he could have won?
Complications:
1) NO loss of durability; therefore about the same problems as the mixed tournaments.
2) 6 Knights, 1 wizard and 1 barb joins? Then, if the barb meets wizard, wizard lose. If barb dies before meeting wizard, wizard wins.
Fix-altions?:
For problem 2: If you choose to make it such that each battle loses durability, what if someone joins and loses durability such that that item would have 0/x durability and cannot be used in the next fight? What then?
Therefore, I propose the following changes:
1) Battles TAKE durability and if a player has less than 3 durability in any weapon, (s)he cannot join. Fixes Comp. (1) and prob. (2), Fix.
2) Players fight against other players of the same level Fixes prob. (1)
3) The tournament is like a survival tournment, each faction fights against each other faction. Fixes Comp. (2)
But that brings up another problem: Level 13/14s, who has not enough of each factions? Or any other level?
I like the idea but would add few changes...

Firstly it would have to be level based. Only X lvl vs X lvl, Not X vs Y.

One major problem is that it would have to be even numbers...an odd number leads to a missing bracket in the torney. Whereas one player from each round will get free pass till you reach the final in which there will be 3 players.

If there was to be such a torney. A bracket would be needed and would need to be updated regulary.

For those of you who dont know what a bracket is -> http://www.samplewords.com/docthumbs/home-tournament-64-thumb.jpg

I would also like to see the same as mixed torney. Full arts only no enchants as per. Only reason for this is factions are only balanced when pitted against the same lvl and with same average AP. In min ap majority of the time range will pwn any melee faction down to the ground.

Take demon for example. Pit a demon vs DE in min ap duel. One shoot from mistress that hits luck and BOOM DE is gone. Whereas full arts not so easy, its more balanced and would determine the better tactics and player.

This idea might also be nice for a team play type torney. Maybe make it so you can partner up with one person and do a 2v2. And of course there is the 3v3 possiblity.

Just my opinions :)

+1 btw :D
Its same as the other tournament admission every half an hour...
More over i said a group of 8 or so it can even be 16 32 any thing
I'm talking about the blindfold battle where the player of any level would battle a random player of any level and faction.. FOr eg DARK ELF of any level would get LADONS and demons will get CAVE DEMONS etc... such battles where player of any level can battle
ChooJeremy said "2) 6 Knights, 1 wizard and 1 barb joins? Then, if the barb meets wizard, wizard lose. If barb dies before meeting wizard, wizard wins."
IF barb can defeat wizard and knights can beat barb,,,, then knights should be able to defeat wizard
-1 then sorry but that is the dumbest torney ive ever heard of.

I could enter and be vs a level 1 every round...Bit dumb in my eyes.
Ok if it is so then remove the blinbfold that i said and do it as u had thought before :)
look at this torunament battle i said about a battle like this even here a was level 5 and battled a player level 11

So you mean a knockout throne battle tournament.
IF barb can defeat wizard and knights can beat barb,,,, then knights should be able to defeat wizard
This is wrong. A lower level wizard might even be able to win a higher level knight. Ever heard of scissors paper stone?
Barb will ALWAYS beat wizard, wizard will ALWAYS beat knight.
That is, unless barb is faction level 0. Then maybe wizard will win.
If the higher level one really strong then he have to defeat the lower level one....
@12: you need to convey your ideas clearly and quickly, because time is running out
