BeLZedaR.4790 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Maybe as an automated quarterly tournament or something? After swiss is out preferably. Slightly off topic: weeklies would be awesome too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once swiss and our other tournament improvements make it live, my hope is that we'll have special event tournaments starting not too long after.Though ToL probably won't be the first one.

Are there any plans for 1v1 and/or 3v3 deathmatch gamemodes as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2v2 maps we made would work fairly well for 3v3's, in my opinion. 1v1 tournaments would be possible, but I'm not convinced they would be fun or competitive.

I think most of us are past being bored of conquest maps. Is a capture the flag option being looked into as well? Also, 1v1’s would not be competitive in the least so I just agree with you. There’s too many classes that can sustain a 1v1 indefinitely, like Druid. At that point it’s less skill involved and more being carried by mechanics.

Would you guys consider making 2v2s and 3v3s full ranked gamemodes?I feel like Conquest is especially hard to carry as a solo player because 5v5s require too much coordination for random groups. 2v2/3v3 deathmatch gamemodes won't require players to rely on their team as much as Conquest would. This, in my opinion, would result in higher match quality and fairer matches overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frequency is still tbd.I think that you’ll see a lot of people wanting to participate in them which will lead to higher frequency and hopefully it’s own ranked game mode. PvP should still be balanced around 5v5 but it would be a better metric of leaderboards etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggityzog.7389 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Please please please give us a tdm que with all the tdm maps. That way if those of us that don't want to dance in and around little circles and want to do tdm just like stronghold and conquest que able game modes. What would the harm be? So far years of conquest has made pvp quite stale. I'd even pay in gems for a TDM que. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd even pay in gems for a TDM que.That’s not a bad idea tbh to add a 3rd ranked preference.Altenstively add another repeatable on-demand automated tournament for 3v3 dm aswell.
