Couple of questions regarding the tour. (And maybe a couple of improvements for the next one!)
Right now, we are looking at a tour where lower ranked people fight against each other first, and then they go to the next round where there is a high ranked player, and in which theoretically the higher ranked moves on and the lower ranked drops. But what is the point of this? This kind of scenario would be easier to get with just making a tour for the "good players" only. And when speaking about that, when this tour was announced, I thought it would be a tour where there would either be 4 small tourneys where all the people ranked the same get to fight against their own skill level, a scenario painted by the thread. But instead, we get 1 round of our own skill level before moving on to be basically fodder, in which after the real tour starts. Do you see where Im getting here?
This only serves the high ranked guys, not lower ones. A better way to do this wouldve been the aforementioned 4 small tours where the top guys of each move on to fight each other, or a so called "eesti-cup" where players get battles continuously and are finally ranked into a position that represents their skill level. People will get games, and the tourney gets better and better as it goes on, as the good players will fight good players, and worse players will fight worse players.
And with the ranking system we have got going on in this tour, this would work fantastically because the ending result ideally is the same as the ranking given.
This tour at hand hardly feels like we are getting the same level competition we were promised.
