Cons:
-The MOBA tournaments need a bit of work - I played Dota 2, and my team got stomped in the first round in about 15 minutes by the eventual winners - would be great to have a DE bracket for these, because it kind of sucks to only get one competitive Bo1 series to play all night...


A few people have mentioned this and we are happy to take this kind of advice on board. The problem with scheduling a DE bracket is time. Some people come to respawn with a team of 5 and are happy to spend 9+ hours in a LoL or DOTA tournament. Others want to try their luck but do not want their entire LAN experience to be a single game. Depending on team numbers, single elim gives us the ability to strike a good balance between these 2 games. On the other hand it means casual teams get less matches. It is almost a catch 22 in a way, if i went DE someone would complain it went far too long smile.gif

We usually base this decision on team numbers. If we get an even bracket, or the team count is small, DE is easy. With an odd bracket (say 14 teams) a DE tournament will go all night.
