Who else thinks this would be awesome if 343 sponsored this playlist?
A double elimination playlist “tournament” every Saturday, with trophies for top places and medals for placing in the top X that show up on players sheets.
I honestly think it would work much better than having “seasons” since imbalances can be addressed from tournament to tournament and concerns about playlist populations wouldn’t be important since these playlists would only exist on saturdays, meaning the playerbase would hang out in socials the rest of the time.
> That’s actually a pretty cool idea, would it have divisions like arena?
Divisions? You mean like the onyx gold bronze silver medals you got? That’d be covered. Medals for top X would cover that. Top 16 could be gold medals, top 64 could be silver, top 256 could get bronze… those numbers be tweaked for whatever felt like it promoted greater participation and competition. Then the trophies would be for number 1, number 2, number 3, and possibly number 4.
Arena didn’t actually have literal divisions like Starcraft’s divisions. Medals simply represented your trueskill modified by some other factors - silver and gold, gold and onyx, heck sometimes onyx and silver or gold and bronze would get matched together.
Edit: Where did you find this topic? I mean it isn’t that old, but you still had to search for it I assume.
