It's good to explore, but I feel you're trying to re-discover the spice road. You can try hosting a tournaments with new rules for sure, but you'll have less players, and those who come will heavily abuse the ruleset flaws. Then you'll be back to the drawing board only to consider restricting things that are already banned in common rulesets, back to square one. It's very easy to see where a tournament is going with max res/prayer/slow% allowed and no rep cap. The reason why those rules are there isn't because LLDers are a bunch of boomers afraid of change; it's because they were abused and made duels unfun.
Instead, I'd recommend adding some spice to the format. Some examples:
>Have people duel somewhere else instead of Blood Moor. (Mount Arreat/River of Flame wp/Nihlathak's Temple/Inner Cloister/Spider Forest wp)
>Host a team tournament that shuffles player on each match. Player with most victory wins.
>Host a tournament that gives points based not on duel outcome, but weird achievements.
>Have a C-tier-or-less-character-only tournament
Why do I want to duel in hell chaos with diablo summoned now...
