Do u need the BL client?Last edited on 19 July 2017 - 12:34 PM by lechampionkev
You want less no-shows? Just increase the roster size…Do you plan to do at least one of the tournaments on EU? Since 50+% of the participants are from EU…

I agreed with the roster size i think 4 subs is the best option, but i keep thinking they need stay in us host cause the most part of teams are from us after a few from eu and then maybe two or three from sa/au.

There are as many teams coming from US as from EU, but ALL tourney are host on US so EU teams are always disadvantaged…

Some might say that the high ping of the Eu teams is an advantage. Delayed kb is op af.

Ils disent que NA est meilleur car c'est la place la plus égale pour tout le monde…
Les gens de SA et AU, pour eux, EU c'est pratiquement impossible à jouer dessus

Well NA host is better for EU than SA and AU, but EU for SA players It's impossible to play, so yes the best option is NA.

I don't understand why if you are using the client you aren't doing the 5 Arena PUG Kits (Build, SG, UHC, Debuff, Iron Soup)If Arena is planned to use those 5 kits in the future for ESL / Premium competitive I think replicating it in this Open Tournament is the best way to go

How many teams will be from SA and AU? Probably less than 10%… And they will not pass round 1.
If the server wants to be "competitive", it has to let equal chances to all the players. NA players are favored in all tournaments. Either you host some tournaments on EU, or you just let the possibility to play half of the matchs on EU…

Hosting in EU is unfair for AU players.
Also I think you underestimate AU players there buddy ;)
