After some discussion from players, I have the feeling that the final round of the TripleX isn't liked.


Heres the only change I would propose, is that making the final round a Round Robin to determine a winner.


It would be a majority vote if I will change it.


But think before posting, having it a Round Robin would mean the hardest player will be harder to beat, as 1v1v1 means 2 people can team up. But people just dont like having to choose.


Discuss.

i say change it, i don't like teaming up on people

[Hustle]

is there anyway to make it so its like your drunk just your aim (for whoever is there) is off instead of your talking lol if so thats what i'd do

The last 3 people which turns into 2v1 suks the big one, im for fine tuning the event

[Sausage]

2v1 to determine the winner never made sense to me. I support the Round Robin.

[Jumpsteady]

the last round is poop... should be round robin between the final 3 1 vs 1 that way if you carried your team like me and others have done only to get slapped in the face by being teamed on at the end is terrible...

[Tietsu]

Supported.

I always felt that the last round is like popularity contest; the person with most friends wins. Won't mind it changed.

The only way Heritage and Aftershock stood a chance at winning the last Triplex was to gang up on me... I managed to hold them off for a bit, but I can only defend for so long against a Cobalt Bow / Stormwrath synergy from a level 36 Ranger and a level 37 Druid, especially with Aftershock and his grossly large number of rares.

Personally I'm not too worried, but the last round is a bit of a favouritism test.

Support a change for the obvious reasons above.

[Achilles]

agreed.. today on 1a it was 2 da and a pande on each team and i said "woot u and rob are screwed either way lol"... but those were the teams from the round before and teams were rerandom'd and changed to pande having the 2v1 advantage instead of us.. major backfire lmao.. but ya. i support change!

support for the fact that its nvr a 1v1v1, someone always gets teamed and its usually the one who could take them 1v1.. so its kinda lame, i say change that shiznitz

[Raylen]

not gonna comment really, as i havent been in triplex lately

although i do recall a few occasions getting teamed on and winning, fun times

i would say keep it the same...otherwise you will pretty much know who's going to win going into final round...but you can kinda do that anyway by knowing who's going to team with who, as it's usually a 2v1 clan situation anyway

Make the Triplex into a 16 character event with teams of 4.

Round 1: 4v4 & 4v4
Round 2: 4v4
Round 3: 2v2 & 2v2
Round 4: 1v1

Now, it might be tough luck who you catch in the 2v2, but it's already random stuff anyway, this would just continue how the TripleX already works. It would also eliminate unfair setups, such as the final round of 3.

However, it'd be a QuadrupileX followed by a DoubleX and Singles?

QuadX-BiX-X 4 teh ween!

Years and years ago I suggested that the final team of 3 all be declared the winners and each get the triplex amulet for the week. I thought it made more sense following the name triplex. Gaddy's is fine, round robbin is fine, it's just a terrible system right now due to low activity and only two real clans powerhousing their way through events on 1-alt. Probably just as bad on main but I don't know. Fixes please.

[Achilles]

like the round robin idea better than gaddy's ... triplex arent 4vs4 lol

[shomer]

on main it's hard to get more than three teams into the triplex, let alone 16 players
