This is not an anti GF proposal, most GF modern or wild are not affected. It mostly hits exotic configurations like GF Diamond alpha and untamed only. Yes it will drive away some application from these cards, but if the only reason they are valuable is because the owner can have cheap SPS through qualifying for tournaments without any risk of not winning then it is a bad system.
I would think that GF cards which are good cards won't be hit too much, because they are still played in the other GF tournaments and ranked. It will hit cards which are only valued for their CP for exotic qualifiers and I do think we do the game, the DAO and the community a service by no longer supporting the value of such cards at the cost of the tournament reward pool.
From Oct 1st to 15th there were 16 GF tournaments - under this proposal (from the appendix above) 9 would have been cancelled.
Some people also rent to play these tournaments - will they risk doing this if tournaments can be cancelled due to insufficient players?
"Typically, these tournaments will guarantee prizes for everyone who enters. While the DEC entry fee offsets the cost a bit, it usually means that players can buy SPS from the DAO at dumping prices"
Tournaments have DEC fees and SPS / CP entry requirements. If you think they are so bad, I suggest you don't look at brawls.
Congratulations though, the proposal is passing by an overwhelming amount, and again many genuine thanks for posting this before the new summoners were released, you have saved me from wasting more money on cards.
it is anti GF proposal, i won't be supporting this
