My Idea to Improve Tournaments

My idea for tourneys is to make it so everyone gets 20 attacks. Every six hours after it starts you get 5 attacks kind of like arena. So if the tourney starts at 12 pm (5 attacks) at 6 pm it refreshes and you get 5 more. Them at midnight 5 then again at 6am. This would garuantee equal amount of attacks per player.

Second part of it. Is you 3 attack option resets per reset. Forcing players to maybe fight a lower point team which would balance the points out so not everyone has the same points.

3rd. Make it so you still have to use ally points to attack with the same people multiple times per reset. But increase the cost per character.

- 1st attack free
- 2nd attack 250
- 3rd attack 500
- 4th attack 1000
- 5th+ attack 2000
Resets at 12 hours into the tourney

I like both your ideas but personally id like to see more frequent tournaments but with a catch. You arent so much going up against people but instead trying to reach a goal to achieve a prize. For example with the coming jyn tournament if you manage to get 500 points you get 20 shards. If you get 8k points you get the full character regardless of your overall position. It prevents people from complaining(myself included) about hackers hogging the top spots if everyone on that shard has the opportunity to unlock a 7* character. And with more frequent tournaments it means that people will still have to save their ally points for specific tournaments because to reach a point threshold to unlock a specific character will still take a lot of effort and refreshes.
This method will also remove the disappointment associated with expending every ally point you own to rank high and then being knocked down a peg or two at the last minute and missing out on a super character

I feel this could also keep the META evolving because atm the chaze combo is too overpowered but with a steady release of new characters and people having to decide which ones they WILL unlock it will keep the game from getting stale too fast

What dyu guys think?

I just want to be guaranteed a decent prize after reaching a certain point total. The most frustrating thing is spending hours pushing only to get knocked back down overnight or something.

The problem with a guaranteed reward for getting a score means you can rig it by setting weak defences. Which was the problem with the very first tournament where people were switching in weak defences so their guildmates could score easy points and then switching to harder teams.

So I don't think they can implement that.

I too have realised this problem, but I think they should be able to find a way around that.

Setting a weak defence will happen regardless. All it will mean this time around is that you are allowing other people to also get the character which as a competitive game. Do you really want that? My method would guarantee less headaches for the devs and still make the tournaments a unique character farm.

Plus if that is their biggest concern they can tinker with the recycle times again to mean that enemies cycling into your available opponents only happens every say 6h. So you only get your free shot 4x during the whole tournament

Yeah but how do you define "Strongest"? e.g. droids are lower power teams but still pack a punch!

I think that's why you have to award points on defence - forces people to consider using strong defence
But then at the same time you stop them using that same team on offence which makes it a choice for each players.
And because some people will set strong teams and others weak, you can't give players the choice to pick their opponent - it should be automatically assigned to them

make it so defence has to be picked from your strongest 10 toons.

Or that you can't attack with teams stronger than you defense team.

I would like that but that just reverts to everyone using their strongest meta teams on defence (which is partly what makes it frustrating and boring)

Yeah but my idea is to creative variety - by preventing people from using their defensive team on offence, you can choose to use a weaker defence and stronger offence, and vice versa

Top 1000: 1* character
Top 500: 2* character
Top 200: 3* character
Top 100: 4* character
Top 50: 5* character
Top 20: 6* character
Top 10: 7* character
