That to is also randomly decided|! It is 1 or 2 (3 depending on how many people. It is drawn for each running and effects all sections.

The drawing will be recorded and posted on YouTube.

How Many People In A Section?/How Many Sections?
It all depends on how many people want to take part.

What If I Want To Drop Out?
Players can only drop out at the end of a running. They will count as a 'demotion'. So if there is one person to be demoted for section 2, but one person drops out then however was last would not get demoted. Please note that players can not drop out once the settings have been drawn.

So if you have any questions or if you want to sign up then just post below. I hope to see you in the Arbitrary League!

I'll play, hoping 75% luck won't be drawn too much.

Good to see you General Arun. If running 1 goes well then some options and settings can be up for talk.

So, you are just going to copy andy's and Dom's league. I would be stunned if you got any good players to play in this tournament. For example, whos going to want to play 1v1 European Borders with 75% luck and one territory distrubted, especially if there is no fog?

better don't reply here. almost all template are bad and without sense.

This is not a copy. There is no league like this on Warlight. It takes a lot of skill to be able to play all times of game including 1 territory distributions. Plus you have to remember that for numbered distribution is manual picking so it is up to the player.

Gnuff I don't know what you on about but it certainly isn't this league.

If the ios app comes out soon enough i would love to play in this. If not please put ke on the list for the next one.

Fog - No Fog, Light Fog, Normal Fog
Map - Decided by order of Average Rating (Number decided)
Territory Distribution - 1,2,3,4,5 per player or all? (Manual for numbers, random for all)
Number Of Wastelands - 0,5 or 10
Size Of Wastelands - 5, 10 or 20
Luck - 0%, 18% or 75% (standard)
Cards - No Cards, 1 Type, 3 Types or 5 types
Types Of Card - If cards are selected then reinforcement is always selected, others are randomly selected. Other card types stay as standard settings.
Reinforcement Card - Fixed, Progressive (turns) or Progressive (territories)

Play a competitive League with high luck lose interest.
why luck should give an such important role?
1 only territory in distribution became luck, there will not be a spot that is better always then one other. so no skill but only luck. (counterpick)
Card=more luck, less skill factor.
reinf progressice is bad too.

I'd prefer this to Andy's league because it uses 16/0% luck at least some of the time.

As soon as their league starts using these lower luck values, I will sign back up.

Andy's league has much better settings though. This league might have halfway decent settings occasionally and the rest would not be strategic at all.

How Are The Starting Sections Decided?
They are decided by the percentage of ranked games you have won.

this is wrong too.
winrate is nothing.

the idea behind this tournament is not bad actually, if you improve the range of settings used, i'm sure more would join!

general our league does use 0%/16% all the time now for D1 and D4. but dom has been too lazy to do it for D2 and D3 as he is still using his alt account but next season he will make the games using his proper account and all games will be either 0% or 16%

I have included the 75% luck option as it is the standard when creating a Warlight game. You have to remember this is open to everyone including new lesser known Warlighters who if they have been playing the standard setting then they are more preferred to higher luck.

Would some of you join if I got rid of the 75% luck option?

no one prefers 75 percent luck, other than bad players who can only beat good players by getting extremely lucky, this is just like andy903's league, except way worse, because his and doms league actually has semistrategic settings on different maps

The 75% luck option has been removed from the settings. Leaving only 0% and 18%.

why 18 percent and not 16 percent? do you want 4v2's to fail?

@seahawks

why 16% luck? do you want 7v4's to fail?

Put 0% weighted lol
