a) very short
b) somewhat luck dependent
Maybe someone has a grand idea? Maybe it could be a daily thing?
Like each day, the player teams are randomly assigned a small tournament (8 teams) in which they play BO1 in a KO-format. One game in the morning, one in the afternoon, and final in the evening.
And the price for winning R1 could be like 1,000$, being in the final 1,500$ and winning 2,000$.
It wouldn't flood the market with money, it wouldn't matter too much and it would be something fun to do for us.
Alternatively, but this might be way too much work, this tournament could be done in 3v3's (i.e. the ARAM sort-of-equivalent), but I suppose this would require major efforts, so probably not.
Anyways, I just wanted to throw some ideas out there, because I really like the idea of a not-so-important-but-very-frequent-small-tournament.
What does everyone else think?
Alternatively of course these daily tournaments could draw players from ELO pools (i.e. only teams with ELO between 1300-1350 play together, 1250-1300 etc.).
That would make it fairer, but I'm not sure if that's possible?
The idea would be to give us something more to do and for it to be a fun thing :) The money rewards are really small and wouldn't create super-advantages.
