Zero-K 1v1 Weekly Tournament March 6th, 2021

Hello and welcome back to the ninth week of Lobster Roll weeklies! We near the end.

WEEK NINE



A few housekeeping notes:

* This is your LAST CHANCE to earn 1v1 points before the end of the season. If you want to move up a spot or two, I highly recommend you come out and play. (#10 is something special, hint hint)

* Make sure to be in discord/zktourney 5 mins before tourney start so I can actually make sure the bracket is right. This seems to have been forgotten last week...

While I completely agree with the statement

quote: It's generally been a really solid map choice for tournaments in terms of facplop fairness.

I have to say no on the account of RNG. Adding any amount of RNG besides inherent RNG the engine or the base game itself adds compromises competitive integrity. I would say yes in any other setting, but where this is a ranked series, I have to decline this addition. Updated map pools will be out tomorrow.

I'm for Random crags because a lot of "good" players are actually just well rehearsed on specific maps. You throw something random or unknown their way, and you get a far better measure of their actual talent and understanding of how to play.

Random crags always seems so meh. If we want to remove the rehearsed-maps advantage, let's pick maps that haven't been in 1v1 rotation in a while. I prefer even "bad" maps over random crags.

Last tourney is finished.

What a wild ride, man.
