    Because i don't like reading certain things. That statement is completely unfounded.



    Yes, i used google translate for the word "unfounded"
    fok
     
  17. im here to boycott this tournament. there is no prize for the winner. not even eternal fame and glory, because its not an open tournament - contestants were chosen arbitrary. the winner can only brag that he defeated a bunch of random people - no prestige at all.

    but the worst thing it that referee keeps yelling "BE MOAR AGGRESSIVE OR BAN" at contestants, which not only is distracting, but also puts pressure on them. knight combat in kag promotes running away like a little girl or exploiting height advantage. its boring, but its effective - that's how you win duels. if you attack just because you are yelled at, when the situation is not good for attacking, then you die.

    that said i still think that bad tournament is better than no tournament - at least that's an event

    I agree with this part, as the game IS one that you don't just throw your head against a wall, trying to break it.
    You can't be all aggressive, or the match would be over in the first 20 seconds. Might wanna lighten up on that, @daskew87

    The matches frequently involve people repositioning themselves and retreating to a better position, also cautiously approaching each other, which actually can make it a more diverse match in some ways.

    I will only warn people of a possible point deduction if they are continually running away from their opponent, where it makes the match no-longer a strategical 1vs1, but a wild-goose chase - that is what possible warnings are there to deter. I think if you look at fighting sports like boxing, I'm fairly sure contenders are penalised or disqualified if they keep fleeing from their opponent. Be aware that nobody in this tournament has ever had a point deduction, and I think only 3 matches out of 12 have had warnings given to players.

    What you need is a precendant set, where players know that if they turn the fight into a running away spectacle, it's no longer a proper contest. They are there to engage with each other.

    Check out Sette1996850's last stand. A video I posted a short-while ago. Did I give him a warning when he wasn't being aggressive? No. I think that's a clear example.

    All that being said, I believe in the Verzuvius vs Fuzzle match, I warned Verzuvius when I think now looking back on it, the warning was given too hastily. However, he won that match anyway.
