    Congratulations to the Winners! Thank you for these, Khaldor, and for helping so much to keep HotS alive! I've thought about this kind of tournament a lot. I think the Team Theme based Bounties should be 4/5. Otherwise, the easiest one to go for is Overwatch, surprisingly, which is boring af. (D. va, Mei/Zarya, Ana/Lucio, Tracer/Genji/Junkrat/Hanzo) - but if for like a Protoss only team, you got a very strict comp. Artanis, Alarak, Probius, Fenix, Tass, Zeratul, and what, Raynor? - Maybe if it's SC, Terrans are Neutral and Zerg/Protoss Teams can both use Morales or Tychus, etc. (It would be up to the organizers though if Stukov counted or not) - then for Warcraft, well there's at least more options.. but not any really great comps.
    But if it's 4/5 then I think teams would be a LOT more willing to try. Could even be stricter to an extent with 4/5, for instance having a WC Dragon Bounty, w/ Brightwing, Deathwing, Alex, and Chromie. Warchiefs Bounty worth more than the standard Horde/Ally bounty with Thrall, Sylv, Garrosh, and E.T.C., (Maybe allowing Malf and Varian in that category as well? Same thing as with Stukov) and the 5th place is just open to allow for the comps to work and allowing for some real creativity instead of strict 5/5 specific comps. As for Diablo, the only comp I can really even think up is All Angels. Tyrael, Imperius, Auriel, Malth.. maybe Angels/Demons comp, allowing the Angels and Dia, Meph, and Azmo to comprise 4. Just some thoughts I've had about this style of tournament for a long time.

    i dont quite understand the beginning statement
    Winners bracker has Map Choice and First pick
    Thats for Raiders
    Now he doesn't like when people say the ones in the winners bracker has 1-0 lead because first pick first choice?
    Then, who has to play a lot less games than your opponent? Raiders or Ash? I guess Raiders play less games than Ash because Ash needs to fight back to the top + the final
    So team Ash is tired from playing extra game
    + raiders get to prepare their next games vs Ash
    + get to analyze ASH's games while they play, how to counter etc
    So raiders get
    - First pick
    - map pick
    - rest time
    - analytical time
    - game prep time
    Ash gets thrown into the next 7 games from the losers bracket
    Did i get that right?

      Hey, Nano from the raiders, in my personal experience getting games before the grand final is very very very good, it’s exceptionally good warm up and you are fresh after a short break.
      That being said, it can backfire easily if instead of 5 or 6 games you played 10+.
      Also I personally did watch their drafts and that’s it, you can’t really prepare anything based on a small sample of games from the semis and finals. You know more about their team from the last 6 qualifiers instead of their last 2 games.
      The only advantage imo is the first pick and map pick

      In a classical double elimination bracket the team from the winner bracket usually gets a full elimination extra because they weren't eliminated. The Raiders won against team Ash before and if they fought evenly now and Team Ash won, then Ash wins the whole tournament because they won the second face-off instead of the first one; that's not fair either.
      That said I'm a fan of the classical variation which would be as follows: They get a fair bo7 without any advantage (except resting time/warmup games which imo mostly cancel each other out) but if the team from the losing bracket wins, then there's a day rest and after that one more bo7 which is without advantage again and decides the final winner if that didn't happen before.

      @@andy02q what's bo7?
      Also, nano commented that it's highly beneficial of having games, 4-6, before competing because they give great warm up and seeing what works and what doesn't. Has momentum too psychologically coming from a win.

    • @SylveonSimp
      @SylveonSimp 3 місяці тому +1

      And they get all those benefits because they didn't get eliminated in the first place. Thats not a bonus, thats a result. Imho a team should get at least one tangible reward. I mean, the other team was already eliminated and only got here by 2nd chance.

    One question on the upcoming change on the bounty system (fixed moneypool) - if a team does more than one bounty, do they get a bigger share of the pool, or does a team have to do just one bounty and they are in for the count?
