Oh?

Now that would be an interesting bug

oh I guess not, on EU it's just empty hmmm

yeah, Asia is displaying only 1 logo and nothing else for that, the same logo

@thorn shale It's not MM logo. It's one of the standard logos which are allowed for any clan. This bug will be fixed soon

Un. Clan de romani

@thorn shale my theory was its from RU, since thats the second place spot, and mercy has the same logo for them (before custom one arrives) and they did get second place. That might have had some effect on it.

I have been fighting for the tournament tanking community SINCE DAY NUMERO UNO. WE NEED, wargaming you hear me? this is urgent, I've been praying to god for this change and I believe we can make it happen. I'm thinking EPIC, EPIC QUALITY and EPIC GAMING Tier 9 quick tournament. bless the lord.

sleek basin
#

k, so basically theres a bug in tourneys, that if u spec, it changes ur controls on tablet to who u are specing, i cant get my controls back to how i like them now, im so sad, is it just me?

manic pewter
#

@sleek basin Our players have had that same peroblem, solution we found for that is dont spec ๐Ÿ˜…

sleek basin
#

ya well i speced once and now its screwed me forever cuz im the dumb dumb who didnt remember his layout for his controls i cri

graceful jetty
#

Yeah i turned off the aim assist of the guy i was speccing and got karma in the next game.
Thats why u use default controls @sleek basin

manic pewter
#

Pro tip, always have screenshot of your controls layout so when something like that happens its easy to get it back ๐Ÿ˜

fringe galleon
#

That is very annoying issue, i had it whole twister season (thats why i didnt spec) And its not only tourneys, for me it was in training rooms too

vital obsidian
#

Is the number of teams participating in qt declining (eu) ๐Ÿค”

floral python
#

@sleek basin beat tip i can give is go to a tr and try out dif layouts and see which is familiar

#

Im lucky i wont have that problem cuz only thing in mine which is different from default is shell change button, from 100 to 150% since i clicked HE instead of gold one too many times

@dapper current Dude you need to think that we dont have enough teams to field a tier 9 tournament in addition to the tier 10 , tier 8 , tier 7 one which r all played at the same time , its already hard to find a team to play against in QT at tier X for example , imagine if some of those teams moved to the t9 tourney ...

#

Except if they r played on different days but then I doubt wg would do that ๐Ÿค”

thorn shale
#

Agree

pallid raven
#

@chilly terrace do u still give prizes to community tournaments?

dapper current
#

@wicked snow T10, T8 and T6 are too popular anyways, drop and kick them for the cool the gang tanker esports heros like the one at T9 and T7. yeah thats right cool tankers, since the coolio blitz player dudes warriors hit them up at the tier nines and the sevens, not some lamo other tiers

winter swallow
#

Just realised why my controls have felt so messed up..

#

They got switched during a tournament. I've been struggling to reverse for days. Jeeeeeez. That's a massive oversight @chilly terrace - should be a priority fix.

#

Specifically - the issue is while in touch if you spectate someone, your control layout switches to theirs. That's mental.

silver vapor
#

I am pretty sure people would go crazy if they spec me and got their controls to mine ๐Ÿ˜‚

#

My controls is a lot more normal nowadays but in the past it's like nothing is going with the default layout except the joystick

#

Also, hell games tournaments? ๐Ÿ˜

oak veldt
#

Best layout is default layout! Ez fix just click on reset and u get it back!

winter swallow
#

Default layout and settings are not ergonomic (at least on iPad). You can dramatically increase movement efficiency (and therefore action economy) by:

  1. Increasing sensitivity to 150% across the board.
  2. Setting ammo-tab to stay open.
  3. Repositioning aim and fire buttons to directly align in relation to the resting positions of your thumb (extended and bent).
  4. Resizing movement joystick to the smallest size you are capable to operate.
  5. Repositioning movement joystick such that the central point is aligned to the resting line of your thumb and specifically, located between the two resting positions (extended and bent).
  6. Subscribing to my YT channel.
  7. Intelligently spacing your 2nd fire and lookout-view icons to avoid accidental triggering whilst also still readily accessible.

Mad games tournament = brilliant idea.
Uprising tournament = terrible idea.

thorn shale
#

Elaborate please? @winter swallow

#

I think both would be brilliant

fathom tiger
#

Both would be terrible

vital obsidian
#

as long they keep the event modes regulary here, it is so much funnier and rewarding than regular randoms

winter swallow
#

Mad games doesnโ€™t have respawn mechanic and can play supremacy mode.
Uprising has respawns and can only play encounter. Imagine a coordinated group of 7 players spawn camping in uprising tournament @thorn shale

Abilities from uprising could be worked into mad games format.

Respawn mechanics non-starter in organised play.

i like the idea of getting healed, the battle royale mode on pc seem interesting aswell

@thorn shale English only please

crisp shore
#

How about inter-clan random battles show matches?๐Ÿค”

winter swallow
#

???

crisp shore
#

For example, all the 6 participating teams with players randomly grouped to one another to form a team of 6 different clan players. We would have 3 show matches in this case.

leaden belfry
#

that won't happen

#

the whole reason you'd possibly need showcase matches in between is so that the players of the six teams can be switched about

#

and I don't think any of the six teams would like to be pulled away from their teams and preparations from the next battle

green plover
#

^ no team chemistry and every server has its own unique playstyle that youโ€™d have to adjust yourself to which is difficult xd

crisp shore
#

Well it's for fun so it doesn't matter anyway though๐Ÿ˜‚

green plover
#

One more issue would be the time difference that the players would have to get on for the matches ๐Ÿ˜‚

glass thunder
#

yeah could be good idea but nothing to show maybe they do that to test new map for wg like csgo do sometimes they bring players from all teams and make show matchs its funny tbh but not that big deal

^ please listen to the man. As a potential recommendation - consider standard conversation with the hashtag thrown in at the end? Would that be OK @chilly terrace ?

i.e.

"I think that CIS is going to be insanely hard to beat this year - especially noting how strong their runner-up teams were in the Wild Card Tournament ๐Ÿ˜ฌ - #Amaunet2Minsk"

chilly terrace
#

I think it would be the best option for both sides. =)

median mason
#

@chilly terrace will Minsk stay as the city for future Twister tournaments? Or you are considering moving the event to somewhere else?

chilly terrace
#

@median mason The city of Twister Cup depends on quite a bit factors and it is determined in the year of holding.

vital obsidian

@chilly terrace will there be a offline in spring?

If it is, we will definitely announce it in news =)

Hey how do i play tournament? No one adds me in

leaden belfry
#

@winter swallow that makes it look like I said that XD though I don't disagree

winter swallow
#

@thorn perch - you need to find or build a team. Try looking in #tourneys-team-search for a clan / group of players. Make sure to indicate your server region, and intended tournament tier (6, 8 or 10).

silver vapor
#

some of my teammates can't go because it's "too far" and Asian parents worrying about Belarus being a "dangerous" country. kek
#rolling2minsk

winter swallow
#

Belarus is literally one of the safest countries in the world.

vital obsidian
#

๐Ÿ‘€

winter swallow
#

It is though.

vital obsidian
#

I dont think so... well top 50 mby

#

But no worries as long you go with the pack

winter swallow
#

@vital obsidian safety metrics are insanely high. Very low crime rates across the board.

#

Minsk is probably safer for tourists than most EU capitals - so for the travelling players I'd say there is zero to worry about. Someone tell their parents.

#

Also as we know from the past and even my experiences at Tankfest - WG do an excellent job of organising things for their people (staff/ players / CCs etc.) when it comes to logistics.

vital obsidian
#

๐Ÿ‘

winter swallow
#

I mean - for @silver vapor and his team mates - WG would handle all logistics, and the players would basically be shuttled from airport to hotel upon arrival. Shuttled between hotel and venue. Then shuttled back to the airport. Safe as houses IMO.

#

of course - what players do on their own time is another matter lol

silver vapor

@winter swallow like I said, it's the "Asian Parents Mindset"

Tis a shame.

@signal lagoon most offline players are actually above 18

#

For Westerners that usually means >decide how you want to live your life your own way

#

For Maddoxโ€™s teammates age clearly means squat lol

signal lagoon
#

@atomic tartan I know that most are above 18, but there's always the possibility of a 16 year old going

atomic tartan
#

Not just a possibility, that was me two years ago lol

#

It wasnt that hard to explain

#

Safety is the main concern, and once you tell them Wargaming handles everyone properly its gg

#

I guess i had it easier cuz I lived in NYC in 2017, where the first Twister Cup was held in 2016, so there was clear evidence this sort of thing does happen

#

Last year someoneโ€™s parents didnโ€™t let them go to Minsk cuz they thought it was a scam.

Asian parents are the type that no matter how hard you explain to them, they'd just use their intuition and say no

#

So even if you were to say "Belarus is safe because wg handles everything" they're gonna go crazy and say no

short tundra
#

@silver vapor Perhaps it's also wise to add "If I win I get $10.000" when asking permission from your parents. ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜
Mentioning "All expenses paid for" might help

stone fable
#

Hi

leaden belfry
#

tbf, people could make this a lot less of a problem by easing their parents into it

#

when the tournament starts, tell them about it casually, and make sure to mention the offline event, then throughout the weeks talk about it occasionally, so they know it's a thing still, then as the finals draw near, tell them about the offline event again, and then add the prize fund

#

so that by the time the finals actually happen, they're fully aware of the possible consequences and know how important it is to you ๐Ÿคท

Agree to take commentators who streamed the Twister Season but disagree with the reason that Bushka and Sk8xtr8m didn't know about Grille boost because I love their reactions ๐Ÿ˜‚ , but the commentators should at least know what the players might do and do tactical breakdowns and punditing during breaks or so

There will be 9 match up. How long will the stream be usually?

@short tundra about 5-7 hours inb4

winter swallow

Yeah - there's going to be 7 matches. 6x Bo5 and 1x Bo7...

vital obsidian
#

Better than Bo3

winter swallow
#

Agreed! - A Bo5 series is not longer than 50 minutes. We can it expect it to be much more rapid in the current meta. But still - teams will switch rooms/ the stage etc. and there'll be interviews and awards and etc. etc. etc. - Twister stream will be like 7 hours probably

short tundra
#

@winter swallow How come it's 7 matches? I thought for the group stage there would be 3 matches per group. If you say 7 that would mean 2 matches only in the group stage.

P.S.: my internet quota will weep next month.

winter swallow
#

@short tundra - a group of 3 plays 3x Bo5 fixtures in a round Robin format. There are two groups so it's 6 matches in total.

The 7th match is the grand final. There isn't a playoff match for 3rd place.

almost all 8 teams in RU play same play style like 7star and mercy

thorn shale
#

i mean... that's how all servers work kind of

glass thunder
#

not same for eu

low badger
#

Na has different styles, and so does literally every other team from every server

thorn shale
#

from my perspective EU likes to hold and tries to get the cap advantage , ofcourse there are some teams that like to rush but not that many in the top levels.
RU usually sees what's going on in the map and rushes the enemy, those teams can also hold and play for points but that's usually not their goal
NA is similar to EU but I'd say with way more rotations

glass thunder
#

and asia?

thorn shale
#

No idea about asia, it's just asia

glass thunder
#

na are really good but the problem they have is they have less competitive teams compared to others server

thorn shale
#

yeah

winter swallow
#

My $0.02

CIS = Aggressive, mobile play that commits to early engagements. Specialises in focus fire, target priority and hit-point rotations. Reliance on mechanical skill and catching enemy tanks out of position. Can fall short early if initial push is defended against effectively. Have been touted as the number 1 seed since forever. However, this year, they look truly formidable and worthy of the #1 seed. The 6.2+ meta rewards their strengths.

EU = Very complex strategies that focus on crossfires, patience and controlling battlefield information. Specialises in wait-and-bait play styles but can switch to rush-meta to reduce predictability. Can tilt on a bad run, and then second guess their own strategic approach to detrimental consequences as a result. The server boasts the best track record to date at Twister, but the 6.2+ meta does not suit the primary EU server meta. They cinch the #2 seed above NA but only just.

NA = Kings of counters - attention to detail and scouting of enemy teams. Can tailor strategies to match opponent. Arguably occupying a half way house between CIS aggression and EU patience. Specialises in innovative game play to wrong-foot their opposition, especially rapid rotations along unusual routes. Hypothetical lower skill cap (relatively) may see individual players making mistakes in early to mid-games phases, such as bleeding HP, making unfavourable trades and not engaging optimally. NA are #3 seed but given their ability to adapt to new metas and develop strategic counters, 6.2+ may give them surprising opportunities.

#

Asia = Jacks of all trades, masters of none. Asia server meta demonstrates elements from CIS, EU and NA but at a lower level mechanically. In general, the Asia server meta is less specialised. While this makes Asia's particular identity hard to define, it does mean that teams are ready for anything. Asia server teams are constantly and simultaneously on guard for passive tricks and hard, 7-tank rushes. This invariably means that Asia server teams are both capable of playing with extreme degrees of caution - or - wreckless abandon. The perceived lower level (relatively) of mechanical skill and lack of unique strategic identity, means that Asia server teams will be going hard, going home or banking on Lady-Luck and her spouse, RNGesus. They will be underestimated, but that is something they can use to their advantage. They are the #4 seed but that annoys them.

CN = From what we know, the China server meta is still nascent. They are several years behind a well developed curve and with limited access to YouTube content, are "learning" tricks from other servers at a slower pace [potentially]. Reports suggest several CN comp mains originate in WoT PC and Asia server Blitz. From what we have seen, CN tournament teams are only just beginning to evolve strats beyond pub-match paradigms. To be brutally honest, CN are the #5 seed and are significantly weaker than their opponents. A show-match between CN Champions and EU Ascent Tournament winners would demonstrate the size of the current skill gulf.

@frosty nexus @thorn shale - if you are looking for text to describe servers, my above short essay might be a good base to build from ๐Ÿ˜„

#

@glass thunder - Yes. In a Bo3 with a weird map selection format that no one knew about before...

mental yarrow
#

@paper moon we don't about that here

winter swallow
#

This year, 4 teams will play no more than 2x Bo5 series each at Twister 2019. - As we have seen how fates can fluctuate during and between Ascent and Professional tournament series, one year's results from 2x Bo3's don't really mean anything lol

glass thunder
#

still better than bo3 win one map and ez win in eu grand final loca won first 2 games vs eg after eg won 5 games in row

#

bo3 good only for random tournaments

winter swallow
#

^ agreed. I am VERY happy this year we have Bo5.

glass thunder
#

this year twister was great top 8 teams on eu are the real best 8 teams i think system was good if we had old system we could see strong teams like FBI or w1n out because they have 66 team wr also challengers tournament was good with new system its give teams more matchs to play that mean more practice

winter swallow
#

^ also agreed. On reflection, there is very little I'd change about the online qualifiers - maybe the pros spread out over a longer period of time and possibly ditch the ticket system from the Ascents. ... I might return to the double Round Robin over Bo5 for professionals too.

#

but IDK - single Round Robin ramped up the pressure and kept more teams viable for top 4 right until the final round.

glass thunder
#

true with double round robine we could see carna back for example

winter swallow
#

Yes - but also you risk seeing 1 or 2 teams being pummeled for another 6 mtches with no hope of making the top 4....

glass thunder
#

or also r2k in the end they could make it top 4 too

#

in the end you cant have perfect system so its good this year was better than last year

winter swallow
#

^ 100% agreed. I was originally a vocal critic, but seeing it play out I'm surprised and happy to be wrong ๐Ÿ™‚

#

@silver vapor @thorn shale @wicked snow - do you think my server analyses are fair?

glass thunder
#

if i want change something about cws system is add clans ranking and match teams with clans rank not wr will be great idea cause having team with 65 wr players make you in level 2 of wr and many clans get 70 wr teams with rerolls

versed field
#

๐Ÿ‘†

winter swallow
#

Yes - next target to improve is the "skill" MM seeding "strongest" to "weakest". Apart from having a painful league format / a format that rewards no-lifing every tournament that can be entered, I have no idea how it can be done.

#

OH no, that's a lie. Ascent 1) WR seeded. Ascent 2) Ascent-1 result seeded. 3) Professionals

#

Ascent 1 = 4 separate tournaments in groups of 32. Bo3.
Ascent 2 = 4 separate tournaments in groups of 32. Bo3.

#

Same time commitment as Ascent 2019.

glass thunder
#

problem was this year we had few teams playing on eu last year we had more than 120 teams in twister first stage this year was max 54 in ascent

winter swallow
#

True. Lengthy series is off putting - but I suspect strongest vs weakest MM really discourages weaker teams from showing up at all.

#

Better prizes would motivate attendance as would being guaranteed to play a fixed number of matches rather than just playing one Bo3 and getting deleted.

chilly terrace
#

@glass thunder That's not a problem. These are two different options: previous year there were more teams which didn't ever come to play their matches. This year we had less teams in qualifying on EU, that's true. But these teams were more motivated.

raven robin
#

vital obsidian
#

The amount of teams was not biggest issue but the heavy reliance on getting tickets, it works better for more teams

#

Also I dont like this long period in between twister quali and twister, most cw clans go to sleep, hope they eventually wake up

The qt dont really inspire atm

glass thunder
#

yes true no good reason to train now or play tournaments only fun sometimes in qt

vital obsidian
#

If the clan-only tours would offer some goal as ranking points it would probs rise the interest

Especially if the ranking in the end would lead to something worth to spend the time and effort on

glass thunder
#

hope its happen

green plover
#

I agree, if they added in a ranked system for clans after big tournaments end and they have prizes from tanks to gold to camoโ€™s that would probably increase the amount of people playing the game and teams participating in tournaments.

humble summit
#

the newer to tourney play clans get disillusioned quickly in current format. They should have ongoing tourney with legit rewards and worthwhile end goals. new criterias like wr driven tourneys or max tourney battles allowed per team.

Time required between qualifiers and offlines to prepare logistics. Flights - hotels - support staff, etc.

In general Yes that's right , but recently I noticed a similarity between RU EU and NA to be fair, what makes Ru so special is their medium playstyle Which is a really common thing now thanks to Progettos , t22s and Fv215b ( Throw back to 2016 meta when Fv215 and 140 were the OG tanks ) therefore games might be closer than usual @winter swallow

A game only dies when you stop playing it.

vital obsidian
#

Or when the old clans eventually give up trying

leaden belfry
#

There's always new clans, new players

#

The game has an expiration date for everyone, and mobile gaming is generally fleeting, but there's also always an influx of new players, so I wouldn't worry about the game or the competitive scene dying just yet

silver vapor
#

Well the point is to keep the new players coming so rate of new players joining > old players leaving

#

Heck, even a "returning player" sort of invitational mechanics would help maintain population

vital obsidian
#

I hope you goin in Minsky to has the opportunity to talk seriously with wg developers

Old rule for marketing, it is easier to keep old customers than to get new

glass thunder
#

if old players stop playing blitz could be the level of others players its super ez to get 70 % wr and 3k avg damage at tier 10 when just moving forward and farm others players(bad players) that make it boring just farm no real compitition if wg care about rank and make it main game mode and make tournaments mm work with rank can make old players stay cause playing with good players in rank more funny than fight vs noobs for damage in random

#

no one of op clans players on eu care about rank or is in top rank players rn cause its useless you play one season you get what you get (camo maybe some gold) and new season start will remove all what you did before its like a real waist of time if im not wrong

It is absolutely obvious (sry for not having the facts and figures supporting this bold assumption) that CW scene is shrinking.

Now it is up to WG to decide whether they want to develop this game mode, that require an amazing level of commitment (gather a team on a given time, train instead of ยซย playingย ยป, develop a stable group of players, build strats) or not.

And I am not meaning by developing this game mode award more credits or avatars or whatsoever, but make this game mode worth investing a hell of time by giving a purpose more than once a year for like 2 weeks during twister cup. More obvious way would be to create clan rankings that u could grind like ratings battles, but could be other options as well. But at least something.

It is quite clear to me that it is not WG priority atm. The only people truly caring about this mode are the streamers that put enthusiasm and energy into it. Many thanks to them.
Thatโ€™s unfortunately not enough to retain people (I mean there are lot of other mobile games proposing clan wars mode much more interesting). And people progressively quit this game mode, and for those who are only interested by it, progressively quit this game.

vital obsidian
#

@forest matrix I fully agree. And I hope wg listens and react.

median mantle
#

This guyโ€™s posts are most of the time stupid but this time I have to say he is right...

manic pewter
#

It has to be rewarding, fun, challenging, interesting but most important players have to be passionate about clan wars. If you arent you drop out cause lack of interest. First of all Its important to get new players into this awesome playground. Ingame regional chats, country flag avatars anything that brings people together and make them enjoy this together. Alone its pretty damn hard

humble summit
#

comp sucks in NA cuz players suck and if they have a leader they would rather call everyone hackers than put in the time as a team to improve thus have no idea what to do in comp situations so they continually get beat down. comp teams by and large in NA are lazy brats that would rather complain about things then coordinate a decent team

forest matrix
#

@manic pewter while I agree to what u say about passion, I see also the exact trap of the passionate player base. This is about 100 people. Fine.

But I believe it is editor primary job to bring passion to the game not the players duty to be passionate. Otherwise we will keep our clan war limited to 30 old vets clans as we have now.

manic pewter
#

You can think blitz for example like a ice hockey. Theres a lot of people playing it for fun with friends but you need to be passionate about it to play in team especially in professional level. Thing is how do you make peple to join a team, stick with it and git gid

#

First step is to get players. Theres a one in (?) number that find its way to some group and enjoy being there and doing what he likes but majority doesnt. Grinding aspect isnt feeding new players that much but on other hand they gotta learn basics with players on their skill level. Bot MM with rerolls isnt working i believe.

@humble summit thatโ€™s a very broad statement to characterize an entire server...

tawny mural
#

I think Blizt should have global clan wars for territories just like PC does. It's fun to have competitive battles for territories with other clans. The territories would give gold and other currencies. Clan are able to create treaties and alliances. I don't know what else it has in PC but it sure would bring a lot of damn attention. Just my opinion

vital obsidian
#

We had those territories earlier in community tours, when a clan "owns" a map its much easier to be pro on it. It could be a good idea to take into regular tours.

Also mad game stuff but those must be for fun only

@vital obsidian I wasn't so into blitz then and didn't know anything about it. If they're able to get it on a website and have continuous scheduled battles for territories, that would be nice

I'm still curious what'll happen to the Wildcard tournament if NA wins ๐Ÿ˜

and if they bring the form we saw in the finals, and counter them Russian tactics, RGN has a great fighting chance ๐Ÿ˜

I've three favourites this year around ๐Ÿค” but it'll be a tough pickle to counter the CIS teams, as this meta suits them very well

Guys how to enter a #tournament

mental cradle
#

You need a Team of 7

arctic axle
#

1st you need to register your team
2nd invite players to the team
3rd you should have 7 players by the start of the tourney

glass thunder
#

not correct

#

you need invite players before register the team after you need only 5 online

humble summit

by register i think he may mean โ€œcreateโ€ the team

If you look in the tournament overview in "Current tournaments" you will see that it isnยดt finished officially yet.

Does anyone know how twister coins are given in torunaments, from my understanding the more players in your team the less you all get.

elder coral
#

Yeah it is exactly like how credits and free xp are distributed. The more games you play, the more coins you get and if you have a full team there is a good chance that you will have to sit out thus earning less coins

U have to win aswell
