WST 5 Rules

Post by owned »

Why is there a minimum player rule? I asked in game tons of times, but I heard nothing but "pun and rudy."

Oh, it's the assumption that having a team of 2 players is an advantage. Yeah. Because Rudy and Punish, you know, they totally won a WST because of that. I mean, if you're worried about losing points from the missing 3rd players, then change the scoring weight to make zones more important that kills. Speaking of the score, maybe the WST.cfg can have a ROUND_CONSOLE_MESSAGE that says the LIMIT_SCORE? That's a popular question.

Not only that it wastes peoples time because having 2 on a team slows down the matches. Also, 2 people equals more space and less points you give away.

Ladle has a minimum for the amount of players no?

Why shouldn't there be a minimum amount of players? This tournament is 3v3, and it isnt fun to play against less than 3 people if you have a full team yourself.

I don't exactly remember this event because last WST was hectic but I think their team had a third member then he/she left?

If i remember wrong then idk why you guys did that.

They had no third member when they started playing us, while our team had 3 in the first two rounds against Finish Him. Then I left. Though I don't really know what happened, were we forced to forfeit?

I thought it was ok if your third player left in the middle of the match. I will recheck the minimal list of rules for the tourney and address this situation with LucK.

While it is true and you guys deserved the win, Luck was telling us during the match that we would be disqualified even if we won.
