Agreed. Prelim matching was CupCaked.
West Coast USA here so we haven't had our final round yet, but this is what I'm lookin' at:
Our guild is down there in 10th because we had to fight #1 in 2nd round of prelims. Any one of 3rd thru 6th we would destroy, but yet, unless we win tonight we won't even make diamond group.Last edited by xEvilMunkyx; 10-12-2014, 07:55 PM.

I guess they wanted ti to be different from the way regular GBs or CW f.ex. are matched up, but the way they did it just forces the top guilds to cannibalize each other way too early. Any system that allows the finals to be easier for a top guild than the prelims, while leaving half the top guilds out of the highest groups seems...off.Crushing mice is good for the soul...

like i said before, we need more prelim matches so only the true strong guild earn the rankings rightfully. 4 prelims would only cover 32 guilds, and yet the participants are more than a hundred.Originally posted by Wraithraiser
Welcome to R2 forums. Where quality is nonexistent and quantity is only measured in the number of whines a single day can produce.

I know myself stripped I can drop ~100k or more just by myself now do that 10, 20, 100 times for every member and you have a monster guild with fluffy bunny matchups.Archer hoarder

The lottery-type system actually has lots of advantages and will keep more people playing longer on Wartune.Archer hoarder

Only thing that could fix prelims is if it had more weeks maybe, that way losing 1 fight wouldn't instantly drop you from top 3 to top 50 and actually "working" on a set goal would mean something.
As it stands the only goal top guilds can strive for is not losing a single match else they're boned.

well its weird to see weaker guilds in higher rankings. so yea am sure guilds gonna abuse this. Difference with cw is that it matches with someone who has equal wins, with cs gb its wins, points, than br. if they fix that less guilds will strip before registration. we;ve lost the first gb and got 3 easy matches after that, we ended in top 16 barely, because we lost with high points.
am happy we reached that, but its weird to see the huge differences between guilds.
