Why tournaments are good, and what should change about them.

1st off read b4 you type hate stuff please...

1 tournament a week, post rewards for next 5 tourneys in advance.

Re-work rewards to include more stuff for lower ranks, and maybe skim just a bit off the top 10 ranking rewards...

Pros...
Ally pointsthis decision was a very smart one as it makes p2p/f2p both equal in tourney as far as refreshes go... as a mainly f2p player i have never been so fortunate in rewards as i have with tournaments since ally points became the currency. AP really levels the playing field.
Also the rewards are good! Your getting something for ally points which did nothing for you previously so any way you look at it your making out like a bandit!

Cons...

Exclusive characters... this is the crux of the tournaments hatred being focused on it imo.

Since jyn/vader ship couldnt be purchased via arodonium paks the p2p community is furious and making there voice heard, and i cant blame them. They have $$$ and its burning a hole in there pockets...EA give em something to spend it on, but please dont corrupt the tournaments format that i belive is quite balanced a fair.

  • The biggest issue with the character tournaments is that we end up with a 4 star toon with no way to build them up without breaking open the wallet. It's good to see Jyn back, but what about the others including Shoretrooper?

    Con: extremely time consuming, go reed my post for details on how tournaments are terrible (but I agree they have 2 or 3 decent ideas, but that's all)
  • Pros:

    I stopped complaining about GW

    Cons:

    Terrible rewards structure
    Time-sink
    Lots of hacking involved
    Stepping down from Aurodiums to give us these things
  • Cons:
    Takes forever.
    Is based off of the most boring aspect of the game.
    Reward structure is awful.
    Receive a character that's basically worthless because you can't star them up.

    Except there is no level playing field. That depends on the random shard you get dumped in. The payment system is fair; however, the prize tiers are not. One server can take first with half as much as another. That's bull. If we're the same level, I shouldn't have to depend on luck of the draw style nonsense to get a meta character/ship.

    Now, if you want to talk about leveling the playing field then you need to incorporate rewards as well. Not just p2p hate dribble.
  • If you don't have a good team it's a waste of time. No I'm not hating on p2p people cause I paid plenty but it was a waste cause I got cool toons instead of meta ones.

    Maybe better rewards for the lower tiers might help. I currently don't even bother attacking. I just set a defense and that's it. I can't gain any ranks by attacking cause I don't have wiggs which means I don't have an empire team either.
