Sportsmanship was abused in a couple of ways at the last event and the TOs have confirmed that both of them will be addressed for next time around.

So I can disregard your request to make a ruling about it then as you don't find it a problem now 😂 if the community has settled that koji is fine it saves us a job

There might be a misunderstanding, have i ever requested anything regarding core game rules? I have voiced my concerns regarding player pack and pairing methods, but I dont think i ever asked you to make any rulings. I have asked you if you are going to step in regarding Koji, but it wasnt a request to do anything.

Koji isn't as much of an issue as Harrison If you ask me, Harrison breaks the game more and on a bigger scale than Koji.

100% true

Good day to you all! Not only we exceeded 20 signups (we expect to reach at least 30) with 4 players coming to us overseas, but player pack is finished. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Thanks for clarification. While for me and my friend who would like to come native language is Russian, we were born in Baltic states - we don't support Russia and its aggression in any form. We don't use Russian flags anywhere and we absolutely hate when peoples families, homes and land are destroyed or taken away especially due to someones empiric ambitions. 

If you still think it would be best if we don't come, I guess we'll accept it with understanding.
 

I see no reason to not let you come. You sir and your friend are invited to our tournament, lets have fun playing together

By Russians you mean people with Russian passport?

We will not perform any searches (not sure if thats even legal) nor that we are going to investigate further than player self admission. Adding to that, we are not going to let anyone participate under Russian flag in longshanks. We are completly aware that this ban is easy to avoid but we are following our usual approach on trusting our players. 

Please be aware that Kraków has accomodated a lot of Ukrainian refugees, and currently we have one Ukrainian refugee registered as player. Any form of support to the russian aggresion will not be tolerated.

Can anyone participate? I have been wanting to participate in a tournament outside of Latvia (that is not vassal) for a while now

Yes event is open for all guest with sole exception for Russian players - due to ongoing Russian aggresion and Ukrainian refugees in city (and playing in tournament) we decided to not allow Russians to sign up.

Keeping in mind your desire to run 1 of each strat on each of the 4 tables (cool concept) I have two suggestions that try to minimise time spent between rounds on the pairing process:

Each team declares all 4 factions, all 4 tables are shown with a different Strat/Pool assigned to each of them. Each team secretly writes down which faction will play at each table - then the usual app system of master and crew declaration continues

OR

Similar system to the one you currently have but TEAM A puts forward one player, then TEAM B two and TEAM A chooses the matchup on tables 1 and 2, then TEAM B chooses table 3 (and therefore 4). Still an advantage for one team, but significantly less than the current system.

Hope it at least gets some ideas going for you guys.

I like the first one. Its just how to take the team out of teams cup

I also understand that one team selects 3 games when other selects 1. But i dont know how to make it fair in 4 players event.

Few questions

so in pairings one teams sends their player, gets offered two opponents and pick opponent. do they always have to play at table 1 or can they pick any table they like?

If i have a Marcus2 proxy do i have to get an official one or can i use it as long as you will approve it? 

is 2:30 per game including pairings? will theyre be extra time to scheldue pairings and games or should we squeeze everything in that 2:30 timeframe?

Anybody home?

Sep 30 players pack huh?

No matter how we look at it one thing is sure

100% the podium will look like this:

Really hoped for getting rid of gamin giving positives but still thanks for this Wyrd!

Current dreamer is bottom tier.

Summoning is the weakest - between amount of alpha strikes (and ways to threat things out range) his Df 4 Wd 6 will not last. Having just 6 cards wont help either since youre losing resources when using Df Trigger and losing resources when you summon, and his main offensive weapon are stitched together whom require high cards to be useful. Therefore summoning dreamer wont last long in a attrition war due to the absurdly high amount of resources he needs and likeliness of him getting killed. And paying like 11 ss to just get your summoning tools on table is insane. Goddamn insane.

Cricket is much more useful, yet still weak. I want to say that this version of Dreamer is viable since boy is my first malifaux main but his trick to increase waking after damaging kills him sadly. Theres too much that can happen and screw your combo of 4 atacks to get chompy and then youre left out to be killed. Ml 6 without any built in positives wont help either and absurd amount of highly damaging casting action makes his incorporeal obsolete.

So main reasons why Dreamer is weak is that while he stays where he was before everything else made huge step forward. Incorporeal doesnt mean as much as it did years ago etc.

But that was strictly competetive tournament opinion. If youre not hard bent on winning and domination you can stil have a lot of fun, its just explanation why dreamer is bottom tier. His abilites may seem strong, but they wont last in 2018 compared to powerhouses.

I said few times alredy - his tankiness should move onto his melee upgrade. That would leave option to play him as beater without tanky backline

This is getting ridiculus. If you pushed Lilith so far to be in range for Myranda, Anna cannot follow. Jumping all in and sacrificing everything to kill Myranda isnt a stable way to beat sandeep anyway. I will not continue in discussing this particular table interaction since were hitting moot point. I can see why you think the way you think, but i cannot agree that its a way of beating sandeep, for me its just a way to spend a lot of resources and make my list in a way that puts me at even higher disadvantage.

you can summon banasuva into the forest and place one mage then push others with captain?

3 lowest card out of eight to burn enemy master activation?  Thats cheap.
