While I share your "meh" feeling about it, I can't think of a better way to do it. So unless that happens, it's about as good as it can be.
Sammy B. T.:
I don't know how we would use the old seeding. The Paddling, the seed 1 team no longer exists, the Raft (either seed 3 or 4) no longer exists, and the Brood (either seed 3 or 4) is only half of what it was through Cogs season 2. I would imagine the Gentleman team is a bit different with their new Mad Hatters and Gents team system. Random seeding effects the Ducks far more than the rest of y'all and we're completely fine with it as it is the only real way to move forward.
Alistair MacBain:
Im not concerned about the ducks place in it. For me its just not a fair method to seed ppl for the start of the season.
Thats why i made a other suggestion.
Let everyone start in the lowest tier and make random matches. That way we get a actual seeding after 1-2 weeks.
Yes a lucky seed for a lower tier competitor would still let him be kicked to the lower tier but when 2 teams are on nearly the same lvl a lucky seed can make the difference.
At least in my opinion.
Sammy B. T.:
How would that work with the new planetary system?Basically you are always fighting someone in the higher tier. Newcomer gear challenge the outer ring, outer ring challenges middle gears, middle gears challenge inner ring, and inner ring challenges champion.
This system kind of requires every slot filled as best as I can tell.
Alistair MacBain:
True but why not just make everyone lowest tier for first week.
Than they face of in random matches. Winner advances. Second week the same. Lowest tier fights itself and advances. Second lowest fights itself and advances.
And that way you can fill every tier week after week.
Or only the winners advance and the tiers fill slower.
So first week: same
second week: lowest tier fights higher tier, winner advances to the higher tier from their place. etc ...
Not sure if it works but i kinda feel thats better than those totally random seeds.
