I think a group stage is much more practical and equitable. For that matter the cup should go to a group format so everyone gets a chance to play a equal minimum of games.


But you can't just limit this to league winners, so you get a choice, everyone gets a shot, or it's a pay to play event.

I already stated that my pairing system is inspired by the Swiss-system.
But the "Consolation" tournament pairing system is different.
In Consolation, teams randomly get paired every week while in the swiss system, teams will play against teams with the same number of wins.


Sorry, you're right. I missed your point. And in the "Consolation" tournament indeed the pairing is random.

Great idea, though I'd like to make a weight for each skill, rather than pure skill points, so OD will have a weight of lets say 5 while FT and Stamina wil cost only 1 skill point. Aditionally, it may be reasonable to give some fine for a monster set of specifi skills (to discourage building lets say a quad 20 bigman with around 5 all the other skills. Of course, the numbers may be different, but the point is to somehow equilize the value of all skills, so we'll have varying teams in the tournament, and not defensive monsters only.

Yes, kinda like how primaries work depending on what your current build is. Secondaries like HA, DR, FT and STA would cost less than primaries.

My point is not to limit, but to give a fine. A bigman with quad 20 and 5 on the rest will perform much better than lets say quad 17 with 7-8, or even 10 the rest, so everyone will tend to build a monster, so what I try to achieve is varience, which will allow to build up players with various skills which are more or less equivalent in terms of performance, so some things they will do better while others-worse, but in overall, they'll lead to similar point difference vs totally average-skilled team. Think of salary limitations in the game. They are for reason.

Exactly! Otherwise we could stick up with the original proposal. The fine for extermely high and combined skills comes to line up a bit the fact that thigns are not linear in BB, ehile the way we build our players IS linear!

The idea is good but not perfect

Imagine two teams at the end of round 6 with forms of:
A: WWWLLL
B: LLLWWW

Surely there is a bit of difference between the two of them

A has lost 3 matches against opponents all with 3 wins and definitely had done a harder job than B

For the solution I suggest BB can define fixed amount of points for each win at different levels

For example winning at 1st 2nd & 3rd rounds will be evaluated as 5pts for each win
4th 5th & 6th: 4pts
7th & 8th: 3pts
9th & 10th: 2pts
And any win between round 11 and 14 (or maybe even higher) would earn 1pt for the winner

Its obvious that you have to win almost every single match of yours but if you lose against an opponent with 9 wins at round 10, you'll lose only 2pts instead of 5 and still be hopeful to hit the mark
