TEAMS REGISTERED SO FAR:
1)Each game must take place on maps specifically designed for two versus two games. Maps that are excluded from this include: INFERNUS, PERILOUS WASTES. Under no circumstances are these two maps to be played due to unfair balance.

I can understand not using Infernus as it's designed for random terrain / FFA, but what is wrong with Perilous Wastes?  So long as you employ Team Distributed start zones setting, this is an awesome and very well balanced 2v2 map.

8)Each game is to be setup with these GAME OPTIONS: Dice and Events: (Optional), Turn Time: 1:30, Teams: 2 Chosen, Ranked: (Optional), Objective: Elimination, Start Zones: Team Distributed, Heroes: Random.

I would advise against having Random Heroes for tournaments- specifically because you throw off the potential Hero match-ups for a 2v2 game.  For instance, players with only starting character packs will have greater chance of getting Bard/Paladin/Warriors (support heroes) while others might end up with all specialist heroes.  Also, a major part of the strategy in 2v2 is deciding as a team which heroes to take into battle to compliment each other's strategies.  Players should always be allowed to pick whatever heroes they want unless everyone explicity agrees to a random hero game.  If we need to make "random heroes" an unranked-only option or remove it entirely, I will do this.  Keep in mind players can always personally choose to select random heroes.

-rule random heroes?

then i will participate as kefkam2, since i dont want tu use the new guardians for this tournament.

This is precisely the kind of thing we want to avoid.  Multiple accounts are not allowed, and we don't want to encourage this by constraining player's choices.

maltross

not gonna be partners with tampit, he doesn't know the meaning of the word teamwork. He also likes to talk too much trash to his partners. I like to win, but will not be stressed out by my partner.

maltross

Can you please not talk about my teamwork?Cause I always play to win and utilize all players on the board and all cards(including my teammates) and if my teammate has a viable strategy I'll help him as much as I can(but do tell first)
I'll give you the point about me talking to much trash, but thats it

DalaiLamer

How will the team win ? 2 wins ? like 3 games ? 1:0 1:1 2:1 winner ? so each side can choose theyr own map for first 2 games.

Supernatural

TWO more teams are needed (just 4 players) and we can start the tournament. Thanks to everyone for participating already my expectations have been exceeded.

Also since this is ending up to be a 12 team tourney do you all think it should just be single elimination or keep it double elim? Let me know your thoughts on this , thankyou.

kefkam

12 teams single eliination would mean 4 games for some teams, and 3 games for other teams. Here are some brackets of 10 teams , 12 teams, single and double elimination.

I dont like that system.

It would be easy if each team has to play other 9 teams, so its not important the order, and more flexible for playing, and if a match take no place its no a big problem (will not delay other match). And we can play all the other teams.

Tampit

I think a double elimination is great as it will even out the luck aspect of the game
For example if diesbudt loses the round  after having some terrible luck he would still have a great deal of chance to win with his skill
