Have you checked that the graphic settings of WA and GPU are as they should be (no vsync etc)? No recent Windows or GPU driver update? Windows game bar disabled?

Quote from: style on July 27, 2024, 04:34 PMI don't get your point about some schemes having less luck involved here. What exactly do you mean?

If you are the worse roper, you will likely ban TTRR rather than Roper because in Roper you can get lucky with crates, right? So I think most of the time one of the players will ban TTRR.

Quote from: style on July 26, 2024, 11:14 AMI had a similar idea like Senator - maybe in a different way. I've seen it in Counter Strike matchmaking. At start of the game each team can ban a map. So if this is beeing transfered to WA each player could ban 2 schemes at start. That adds even more tactic and this way you can just ban your supposed weakest scheme or opponents strongest scheme etc. Banning the schemes should be done in turns ofc. First picker gets first choice to ban.

Overall 11 schemes, 4 gets banned (2 bans for each player), 7 remaining. This way, in Bo5, the amount of schemes will be reduced and everyone can respresent their preferences. It may lead to strongest schemes of both getting banned, but then you have more competition at playing the leftover schemes.

I've thought about this too but the problem is that schemes are not like maps. Some schemes have less luck involved than the others so I believe certain schemes would always get banned (TTRR and BnG probably unless the players are equally skilled).

Ropers have similar disadvantage when they don't get to pick first. Someone could only pick artillery schemes (BnG, Hysteria and Aerial) or strategic schemes (Elite, Intermediate and Team17).

I agree though that you should be required to win different type of schemes in a playoff series. I've suggested before that you could only pick:

2 of BnG, Hysteria, Aerial
2 of Elite, Intermediate, Team17, Shopper
2 of TTRR, Roper, WxW, Big RR

This way you'd need to win 2 x artillery and 1 x strategic, for example. This should also make playoff series more enjoyable to watch. More variation and closer series.

Final

Congrats blitzed!

I tried to browse a bunch of different cup/tournament games and always got the message "An error has occurred" "The game you are looking for does not exist."

Registration is open. See you on Sunday at 17 GMT!
