How do you feel about dividing tournaments based on tier?

Nobody expects the low teams/underdogs to win, and they shouldn't. This tournament is, in my opinion, for Moba members and people interested in Moba. The high diamond and challenger kids roll In to win and don't give a **** about Moba. Some of them have had accounts for 2-3 months for the tourneys and they haven't made a SINGLE ****ING POST.


With that part I agree, but if there's a mobafire member who happens to be in the challenger tier I don't see how we should exclude them because they are challenger tier. Any member should be welcome to join.

****in' A, man. I bust my *** for diamond and I bust my *** for this community.

Do my rule: if you are diamond or challenger, your team CAN NOT participate unless you have active Moba members on your team. I wanted to play in the Moba tournament to get far and face psi guards team, and I can't remember but there was another team of a few plat/d with active members on it. I say no diamond unless they contribute X number of posts or guides, and no challenger period.


I know you do, and I support your PERSONAL decision to not participate in the tournaments. But thats a decision you made. Theres a difference when someone actively chooses not to participate and they are barred from participation.

Simple mathematics state that the Challenger teams will just win the prize every single time.

So do you want MOBAFire seen as a community which only supports high-level players like Solomid? Because that's what's gonna happen in open tournies.


care to share with us this 'simple mathematical formula'. Because there is nothing mathematical about it.

Currently it supports all levels of play, if we implement this system it will only support unranked through platinum.

^I think it should be pretty obvious that the definition of "amateur" on Mobafire is not someone who plays in a challenger team.


thats your personal definition. Mobafire does not explicitly say what is an amateur team and what isn't.

people that sign in Mobafire just to participate in tournaments is condemnable.


agreed, but thats not whats being proposed here. Its being proposed as two separate tournaments based on skill.
Thanks for the Signature MissMaw!

*revert to mobafire open cup i just brought to the table.
preferential spot in brackets, extra prize for comunity members or lower entry fee (or even free?)?

i can agree with every member, not any compisition of member based teams.

edit: moon just answered my argument the only way he could answer (?): picking the least relevant part of my post.

If there will be a split I'm not playing anymore either, if I'd lose I'd feel bad about myself and if I win there would be no glory. My team is Gold 3 atm, beating other Gold or lower players really doesn't give any satisfaction. However if we beat a plat/diamond team I'd be so damn proud!

So to all people who voted yes: Stop *****ing out, and show some damn pride and honor!

To the proposition of a minimum requirement of posts/rep: Great idea that I'd certainly support. It's not that much effort to gain some posts, but if someone takes the time to do so it really shows someone's willingness. This way it will scare off people who are just here for the prizes, and it will make it truly MOBAFire :)

It would give me so much motivation to play against Challenger/diamond tier players. I know I'd get stomped but I'd be proud just to go and face them with all I have.

Playing against them can point out your mistakes, playing against silvers ain't gonna do it.
