It took a lot to set it up and it was fun to actually play. But a lot of the problems consisted of getting the games to start on time, people who signed up and not showing up without word (resulting in like 10-20 minutes of trying to find subs) and getting everybody grouped up at the correct rank so no game was a blow out. I don't believe anyone would ever actually take it serious enough for money, i think it would just lead to toxic attitudes if they lose really. Also, scrim doesn't need to be "populated" on a daily basis, as this was already discussed in the thread about Scrim Awards for the forums (which i'll link when i'm not on tapatalk). It's more of just a get together for people to play a pug match really. 1 Link to comment
Exk Posted December 31, 2016 Content Count: 701 Joined: 08/19/16 Status: Offline Share Posted December 31, 2016 The rank range in SG would make a tournament extremely unfair. Especially if the teams are premade... The event Rain did was a scrim get together which just had an Admin Vs Member format with balanced out teams. Scrim's not meant to be populated all day, it's just when people want to get together and scrim. I try to start one pretty often and I know others that usually do. Another event would be fun but I don't agree with a tournament for it. Link to comment
