1v1 Competition possibility

[Alfa1986]

The idea is interesting, but without the approval of the developers, perhaps this can be regarded as an unfair getting of renown ---> ban.

You don’t get renown for inactive zones hence why we can already do duels and 6v6. And the devs wouldn’t mass ban for a publicly advertised event...

Great idea, I already spend plenty of time dueling my guild mates In altdorf as it is as its a great way to test and theorycraft, However I would suggest you dont allow heal classes to participate unless they are melee spec, as a deftard /healspec shammy will laugh at anything that it faces while putting low damage dots on opponent slowly killing them.

Appreciate the feedback and if enough interest I would love to see this move forward.

However all classes will be involved, healers / dps healers (AM/Sham).

Perhaps you are missing my point,
A tank spec Shammy Can not die to any class, any spec, anyway , anytime
So it will 100% be a draw with 2 tank/heal spec healers doing less damage than they easily heal through.


Just to give you an Idea, a few months ago Myself on My shammy named Wheatbix and my WH Friend named Union decided to test some abilities on a zone while it was quiet.
I ended up doing the following

1, letting him stealth and take my back, knocking me down
2, kept giving him my back for the duration
3, did not detaunt
4, did not kite
5, let him use the double heal debuff

and still i could mitigate enough with my 800+ toughness and 0% chance to be crit to heal through all of it

Give me the option of detaunting and Kiting and what do you think the outcome will be?
perhaps i have made it more clear this time.

If not, you have another entry to the competition, My shammy Wheatbix.

Ok so we have 1 person interested , Wheatbix your name is taken down.

If we get enough people what I will do is on stream do a live “draft lottery” system of who fights who in the first round of Archtypes. Once we he have a winner in each “archetype” the. Will start to do double elimination rounds of mixing archetypes with round breaks not lasting more than 2 min so can’t spam pots. I hope that makes sense.

separating the archetypes will only show the class who are top tier and will not motivate other class to come

want to come back for this event but too much grind to do

Ok thanks for reviewing. If you change your name let me know.

why pots allowed in 1v1?

[Ninjagon]

I like this idea. With a minimum winning chance (as s BW), I still want to see it! Please, make a video!

Better than prohibition, is allowing all resources, all posibilities in the game.

Spoiler:

I have made something similar to this in another game (WoW, 2006), way befor introduction of arenas. It's 13 years allready! OMG!

Have to agree. Pots shouldn't be allowed in a 1v1 imo.

So far we have just 1 participant besides myself. If no one else really shows interest within 24hrs I will request to have thread just locked and won’t pursue it.

Really to have something like this be feasible would need about 20 people minimum (10 Each side).
