War #8 - Suggestions and Feedback

[Avenger]

I preferred the ancient auction system. I don't care if it takes some time, it gives you time to prepare. Auction is/was part of war strategies.

If you wait for War to start in order to start preparing for it you are just too-little-too-late.

Moreover, do you think it is fair for people who enter War prepared to lose a whole week (maybe more) of their real-lives waiting for others to do so while they could had done so since Trials (or even earlier)?

I mean no offence; just my 2 ...

As i mentioned, i consider the auction as part of war, so it isn't lost time for me. If we take your approach... we could also cut the first few rounds of games, and lets just play war in a single round in direct elimination. We could finish it in a weekend. Probably we shouldn't even start life/gravity teams as it seems unfair to be in those teams

* Your "direct elimination" approach is interesting for some events. After all, Weekly Tournies are based on it (lose a bo3 and you're out, except if you wish to fight for 3rd place or something). I wouldn't mind a super-fast War either tbh.
* Auction lacks action and, because of this, it is boring. Actually, it is both long and boring...
* Heh, you can believe whatever you like but and will surely own War #9! AdrenaChargers ftw!!

  maybe 
  the rules need change a lot of things in favor of life, to life be alive
 I really admire players who play war with life believing that life have chances of win

@dawn: Keep your ground and defend with your own instead of running away.

@vang: You may be a forum buddy of mine, but seriously dude, before teaching War meta to others do the slightest effort to actually lead your team to War instead of having yourself replaced...

Naah ... I have participated in two wars, it is enough to know what life can do there, also I can take any team to war,  less fire or aether, because I'm not a coward and I don't like to win with absurd advantages vs another teams. Put deuce or Root in life to you see what happens...

Fair enough...

Heh. I didn't expect you would (almost) embrace direct elimination. I actually like long events. A single fault in such long events won't lead to defeat, while in tourneys, it is usually a single game that kills you.
Hopefully, the shards will even the playing field a bit, or at least change the meta to be less used to.
