i see the points of it, just doesn't appeal to me. if they do it and find they like it and wanna do actual nightly tvts with us then the more the merrier.

5 teams is nothing compared to what ive seen in the past. the recent past? maybe so good on them. i still stand by what i said, more would have signed up with regular rules. but if this idea is to try nd get fpk players to come to lld then cool, i only say this because i've played tvts with armadaJJ (brady) nd piwah (paul) and both of them were playing chars that wouldn't be legal for this event so it seems like, if you wanted to grab the fpkers attention then maybe allow chars the fpk ppl have access to to be legal? just saying. i did loan piwah a druid but the sorc he has built for spfraiders etc to use, would not be legal, nor would bradys hdin or the fb he is building.


u said the turnout would be shit, it isnt. its really that simple. u can shift to "well it might be more if u let me play hdin" but the simple fact remains turnout thusfar is decent.

inb4 tho u post saying the bad turnout of duels this will have is due to rules. weve had turnout issues for 10 years or so since the population of players started getting jobs and responsibilities. almost no tourney has had a good turnout in that time at all. it just is what it is. its why EU allowed for like 2 months tourneys last i played there.

You should realize that literally no one registered is a big time fpk player. Have I fpk’d in the past? Yeah sure but I’m not the greatest. No where close to it.

Kappa only has a trash hld vt
And whiteshadowmaster plays all sorts of chars mainly a tele smiter from what I recall

I just wanted a themed tournament so we don’t have to have a 10page summary on specific rules and to open up the realm of lld fpk. Vtpk lld wasn’t even a thing until it was designed in hld years before and look at how that turned out for lld. Seems like
Many people have a lld vt.

Who knows, this tournament could be fun or or could turn out bad but as of right now, people seem excited and you’re just sitting there trashing on it because you’re stuck in the mud with your hdin/zon team comp lel

the b tier touney by aslyum was amazing, had 23 or some odd ppl in it. it was during just as active of a time. the rules were far more acceptable and made for gr8 and fun duels, of the ppl who didn't dodge me, i had rly fun duels, not gonna lie.

i have nothing to say negative about any of this, just said it doesnt appeal to me. i do wish it goodluck as with all things lld. i made a comment in a discussion topic about what i believe. which is what this topic was asking for me to do, quite literally. you won't see me jumping in their thread causing any disrespect even when the event fails, i have nothing but hope for lld to grow and get bigger and better, but for me, this isnt an event i feel like playing in.

I already plan to seamlessly host this exact tournament like a week after it ends and very often until it dies down. There are so many juicy team comps that would be fun to do and a lot of different possibilities for outcomes. Must explore this thoroughly! Hope to win and use those funds as the next prize and so on. Also looking for a partner that isn’t currently participating to get more people going.

nah. its less about hdin/zon team comp, because i think i like barb hdin more, or hdin trapper. etc depending on who is playing. its more the lack of fun 2v2 matchups i enjoy on a nightly basis are not legal in this. that is all.
like i said in my post above i wish the event luck and i hope it does well, even if i dont take part. i was just giving an opinion that i am not the only one who feels this way. just being a voice for those people like i have in the past, in a discussion topic. i am not nor do i plan to, running into ur 2v2 thread with any kind of disrespect or hope of it failing.

Come try it. I know you’re interested in lld and never tried it. Ted is gg and can help you out.

And I appreciate it Ted. If I continue to play actively enough after this tournament I’ll pitch towards the prize pools whenever I can. Even if I have to bnp for it or resell items for my old partner.

And this is just a test run, who knows how the rules could change down the road. Maybe next time we incorporate amp to empower Druid / nec, barb/nec teams. No idea but I’m excited to find out what the results are next week!
