Thanks for the explanation and the work involved in the tournaments refining.
Personally I though it was a good idea, but finally I did not enjoy the set up for a number or reasons:
1. Took way too long to compete to get a high reward position, which sometimes was difficult to reconcile with work, family life, etc...
2. I only could use my entire roster in the beginning, but when approaching the high positions, everybody was using a combination of the same 6-8 toons. So did not allow to use different strategies and have fun using different toons.
3. Getting better rewards was subjected too much to the luck of the shard you were included in.
Possible solutions:
a. Make it shorter. Having 1 day duration, was a definitely a good and much appreciated step.
b. Allow to combat against different types of squads throughout all the competition, not only against the meta of the moment. Probably this will make it closer to a GW rather than a global PVP event, but in my opinion would be more fun. Yes, we already have a GW, but also have an arena. Testing our roster in a surviving way against progressively more difficult squads (not necessarily from real players) of different types (nightsisters, rebels, empire, jawas...) could be interesting.
Thanks
