I'm very against the race idea, but I love the conference style play. Perhaps we found our Season 12 format! I'll do some testing on it and see how it plays out.

Oh come on, you have admit, the number of HU players is getting silly. If we had as many NE instead, it'd be fun because NE games are actually dynamic. Like 90% games this season had 2+ humans.

And when players go random we're bound to get much more diversity in games. Honestly, wouldn't you want to see great players like l77 or yz or q or johny play something other than HU/Orc?

No, not really. I'd rather people play the race they enjoy playing.

I don't know. If it any other race was so popular I'd agree, but I'm just not seeing any entertainment in mass HU matches. Maybe I'm alone in that. Any more than 1 HU just ruins the game for me :/

Wow so many feedbacks, I'm happy you guys like it  :icon_exclaim:

@ SLythe : as Renaud said, if the two playing in the last round from the same conference do not have any interest of suiciding each other, this will decrease a lot the suicidal cases. It isnt 100% working all the time indeed.

@ Renaud : no direct qualification for the finals is the center of my system so no, bad idea! Bad Renaud bad! If we manage tor each 20 players per conferences, we would have 5/20 in playoffs and 15 masturbating : not good.

@ Pinball : no vote, Worpex always remind us that fml isnt a democraty!  :icon_lol:

--------------------------

Race rule : I wanted it because we saw imo too many mass humans games very boring.
 Seems like everyone is against it except ebo (which shouldnt be reassuring for me! lol jk) so fine I'll let it go, this was just an extra idea.

Edit : darker likes it too, cool!

-----------------------------
@ Mage : as Renaud said, both conferences at the moment are very balanced : 16/16.
We will see where we stand when the applications will be made. Nothing impossible to be solved anyway I'm sure.
If one is needed to balance the number of the other conference and is very available to play, we can move him. I would say someone like Beljone who is serbian in the USA, could play in Europe. Just a thought.
