Community inputs regarding Tournaments

[Statharas]

As the community's input is crucial in this case, I want to know if you'd like THW to organize tournaments with reputation prizes and possibly badges.

Also, I want to know on which server you'd want the tournaments to be done on (odds are that only NA and EU would get tournaments, though).

Before anyone drops the question, we would do swiss, best out of three.

It would be nice to see a EU tournament.

 

[PurgeandFire]

Probably EU. I think the first tournament was mostly EU, and most of the posts in "Post your battletag" are from EU. Anyway, I already made an EU account so I wouldn't mind having it there.

Tho I only have an account on NA, I'd be fine playing anywhere, since I wanna see how far the basics decks can get.

 

[Statharas]

I guess we're doing europe then

 

[Razosh]

Great to hear just tell me when and where to sign up.

 

[Statharas]

Gonna grab some matchmaking software from work to do the standings for me before that.

You can use the same account to connect to NA/EU/Asia servers now so you're able to host it world wide now. Host now plz.

I would personally love to join an official THW EU-tournament.

Technically speaking, you can't. There is no actual cross region play. (and most likely won't be)
What it actually does when you change region is it creates a brand new HS profile within your b.net account for that region, meaning you won't have any progress or cards or anything else carried over.

 

[Chaosy]

well better than creating a new account

Feedback: Make it a best out of three with three separate decks.
Only one deck is a silly idea, another silly idea is making decks public.

Read before commenting.

Best out of 3 means everyone will be given 2 decks.

I fail to see how best out of three has anything to do with being given 2 decks.
Besides the thread implies you are allowed only one deck with a 6 card side deck.

Read before commenting ?

 

[Razosh]

Best out of three means everyone plays three games and the one who win 2 times defeats his opponent. This means that you will be given two decks if you loose with both decks you loose the challenge.

Statharas never mentioned one deck or a six card side deck.

Yes he did.
And I still don't get how you concluded best out of three means you will be given two decks.
Logic dictates you would have three decks by default, if you were to use a different one in every match.

 

[Statharas]

I've edited the clarification part: You are now allowed to use any number of decks, provided they contain cards from your main deck and side decked cards.
aka: I play against someone who rushes a lot, and I have cards in my side deck like Abomination which clear such threats: I can play a deck that has the Abomination in and another card switched out.

You can essentially have any number of decks, provided they contain cards only from your main deck and side deck.
