Possible Tournament Discussion
It's been a while since we've seen a pvp tournament and I'd like to get some feedback and suggestions from you all so I can bring it to the player council to get things started.
In the past we've had two different types of tournaments. Canyon Clash, a Fraywind Canyon Tournament (15v15), and Skyring Slam, a Champion Skyring Tournament (3v3). Would you guys like to see the return of these or would you like to see something completely different? If you want something different then please post what you have in mind. I like the old tournaments and would say it'd be good to stick to those.
Prizes for events and stuff have been a large part of forum discussions recently so what do you guys want to see as rewards? In the past we've had Titles (These are not always easy to get from BHS), mounts, cosmetics, and EMP rewards. I was thinking we could add reward credits and points.
Should there be a limit to the number of certain classes allowed to participate on each team? Right now Fraywind's default limit is 5 of each class.
What gear should be used? I think going back to Starfall +15 with the jewelry set we have now and the one that came before it. I'd also like to see etching IIIs and the usual crystals. No blacksmith's hammerstrike.
Please feel free to add anything else that I may have missed!

The old class restriction of 5 of a class per team with only 4 playing at once
Starfall +15 gear or let us use any mix of VM7 VM6 and Conflate
Maze/Tick Tock/Hyderad Jewelery
Yellow Innerwear
Quatrefoil Brooch
Dyads
Etching 3s
Costumes
Rewards - Etching 3s Feedstock Alk Cosmetics Dyads
5-10 man 1v1 crew battle
15v15 dodgeball first to x kills
1v1 tourney
Course if anything fwc is the preferred one as most people do fwc
Class restriction of 2-3, if not then 0 class restriction; let's see the 12 ninja 3 healer teams
You also can't judge Skyring's popularity from the ingame version. The tournament will be on even ground / equalized cause everyone gets max gear available and so on, the ingame one is not and has gear gaps. Plus it's more fun to watch than 99% matches in FWC.
Then again it's pointless just like when EME ignored the request to ban res from last skyring slam, so it doesn't matter.
It has the most potential for strategy of all BGs, which adds an extra element.
Then again emmasse are more interested in getting popular streamers to do their corsairs tournament or bam tournament.
Catering to new players rather than the longer loyal players.
I'll love to see another Canyon Clash or Skyring Slam but can't get my hopes too high.
