I will add any updates to this comment: -There will be no OCC tournament in December -The top 16 stage will be drawn rather than seeded off of swiss round ranks
I remember watching you beat Socialist live last year in the final WC game and thinking: “1939 is going to make sure JKing has no advantage in 2024 making it to finals” My thought at the time was that they likely don’t want a single dominating player winning this many times in a row, and also because of your open criticism of the OCC format at the same time possibly making you persona non grata. So I’ve actually been wondering if they were going to incorporate MORE RNG into the format as a way of increasing the probability that the final bracket will be new(er) faces. Probably too conspiracy theory here, but I just find it ironic that I was thinking about this 9 months ago only for this exact “RNG heavy” format to be announced.
Seeded groups into top 32 like the previous 3 years would have been good. If they were concerned about people dropping, they could have done 2 swiss rounds of top 8 each time like 2020. I am less concerned by the format specifically and more concerned about number of games and room for out-of-game RNG (groups drawing, swiss round opponents, etc.)
Been playing kards for a few years now. Tbh the whole game is dead not just the competitive scene. Way too many people playing the same bs greedy cards/decks.
i really agree why not ban something decks in stage ? this nosense about no eleminate deck i think 1939 don´t think exaclty how stay in line about rules of tournament example you talk 2020 2021 etc sooo thats it
I enjoy this game cashually throwing a varried deck together. But against very competitive decks, it just feels like you fluncked a maths test. Mtg has the same issue why i difted in and out of it never stuck to it. Different horses for different courses, I guess. Have fun. Hope you do well.
@felipetomaz1087 Star realms is another I play which is more deck builder than ccg. But it is very good. White wizard games have a game like magic the gathering too.

We need someone like star city games to host tournaments.
Well said. Let's see if they listen.
bo3 no bans? time to bring 3 highroll lists, l6/40 players eating good 😋
L6/40 in WC is my kryptonite 😩
Speaking of lower admin cost, remember that the community manager position is still vacant...
Honest question. What was the best possible set for the 128 knock-out stage for you? Just like last year?
