One of the complaints that many coaches have expressed about B is the lack of a competitive goal. Many feel that tournaments are the most interesting competitive format.
What about a preconstructed tournament? I understand these exist in RL.
You'd build your own tournament team from scratch using a fixed amount of gold and then have it matched via the B scheduler vs other tournament teams in a KO format. The rounds would operate on a set schedule rather than every 30 minutes and you'd have X amount of days to play your match like in other tournaments.
The scheduler's TS cap would be removed for this purpose.
I am thinking eligibility should be linked to BWR in some way.
What I like about this approach is that it gives B a distinct flavor. Tournaments would use preconstructed teams, and the open play in B would be less focused on team building, and more on winning. |

Ok so... You win a tournament and get to retire for free... Sounds awesome... This would really attract players.

I could play in one. But only if there is some kind of reward, like a free lino or +1FF on some other team of your choice etc. |

That would require a whole new interface for building your team, I can't see effort exceeding return here. |
