It's This Simple. How to Fix the Tournament
1- Fix matchmaking. This can easily be done by simply matching people up by their win percentages every 10%. The better players will eventually gravitate upwards and the lesser players will automatically drop according to their skill+gear levels.
2- If we are going to be limited to 8 tournament battles per day. Lets us choose the battle mode. FFA, 5v5, or Control Point. Choice is the best option for any player. The Free for All gamestyle should also be added to the main menu.
3- Punish AFKers. Shouldn't be anything huge but enough to curb that behavior. Being AFK ruins the experience for everyone involved.
4- BOTs should never have anything that costs real $$$. They are supposed to be place fillers not out score real players. Bots are a necessary evil but this should be mitigated by keeping the quality of bots at best equal to and usually below that of human players.
5- Ranks & Rewards. Fighting 8 battles and winning a paltry 5-10 acoins for each WIN to start is insulting. Sometimes even if you are on the winning side the reward is so small it feels like you've actually lost. So in 5v5 and control point fights give everyone the same reward. Those are TEAM fights. Sure someone usually stands out, but the team wins not just the superstar. FFA fights are where individuals shine and should see individual rewards.
6- Since we only get 8 tournament fights per day. Let us CHOOSE what combat style we play them in. Giving players a choice makes the game more fun for everyone and would let people compete where they feel they have the best chances.
