So seeing as the last one didn't go terribly, doing it again for ESL Genting (starting on Friday) https://www.fantasydota.eu/viewLeague
Double the game-modes and double the prizes.
If you really can't be arsed, you can just enter the league. Pick team before it starts, no transfers during the tournament, come back and see if you've won.
Or you can enter teams for the daily battlecups (Hero values will be re-calibrated for these throughout the tournament, so we don't get any horrible alchemist, luna spam like last time )
It's free to play. Prizes are the new terrain for money king (just the terrian), one for league winner, one for whoever wins most/does best in battlecups
This is not affiliated with ESL. I messaged them to check it was OK for me to do this, haven't got a response so I hope it's fine. I don't see a downside from their point of view.

Awww muh ember is to expensive
Anyway, this time i'll win it
|
seems like not many people interested in playing this time.
so should have a very high chance of winning
|
Last time i was actually blown away with how many people played it. This time it seems the layout is a bit more refined, maybe the font, in any case congrats and thank you.
Will recommend to my friends later today.

Good first day so far... #1 overall, however, only by 15 points, let's see how the day ends. #Don'tFearTheReaper Also in the final of the battlecup thing... wish me luck!
I was also expecting more people to attend. Last time it seemed like there was some more time before the start, maybe that was a reason. Also it's still more or less in the holiday season, quite a few people possibly being with family or on break and what not.

Yeah last time cyborg matt tweeted a link, and there was a reddit thread which got a few upvotes. so it's pretty much only people seeing this thread that know it's going on
also more people interested in major. several reasons really.
Im not really bothered about numbers too much. It's nice to be able to fix bugs/test improvements without too much pressure :D (last-time I kept panicking whenever I temporarily broke something with over 200 people!)
also I really like the monkey king terrain, so to win one for myself would be cool (I only ever buy compendiums not individual items. more fun to win/earn stuff)
edit:
yeah you won 1st battlecup https://www.fantasydota.eu/battlecup?battlecup_id=1
(I ran into quite a few bugs with this I had to sort out. so sorry if anyone noticed results mysteriously changing at any point throughout the day!)

hoho-haha. not a great start
day 2 battlecup teams now pickable (hero values were automatically recalibrated for this based on the points they got today)
|
Yes I made it
tbh I find it very hard to create a team for the second day now with new values.

yeah I noticed that.
the average value is only 8.55229361451. but it's because there's so many unpicked heroes, values spread out a lot and make the common heroes really expensive
Incase one of you has already chosen your team, and leaves it until tomorrow, im not going to change any values today. that wouldnt be fair
but Ill change the calibration to lower the average value for the final day
(useful to learn for future tournaments as well when recalibrating)
im also wondering if it maybe indicates a kind of flawed scoring system, Ill see if that can be improved for next tournament!
