Hi guys,
Thank you for sharing your experiences so far. We are still looking into all account details, but what might be good to already emphasize, is that in this new setup, it will generally be more rewarding to play the provinces on higher levels, instead of e.g. 20 provinces on level 1. As said, we're still investigating the details and first analytics, but just wanted to let you know this already. Please keep sharing your experiences and thoughts. Thank you!

Somehow I do not feel this will draw more people in the tournaments at all.
In the old version the fights where pretty easy in the first bunch of provinces as well. and even if they failed the damage was very limited.
right now it's maybe even easier, but if they fail the damage is not very limited anymore.
I fear that this will be just another spire, people try to fight once, get one massive loss and just ignore it for the rest of there life.
Even when there obviously are people who fight to the top, so it must be possible, that 1 experience ruins it all for most.

Again, is not easy because I did a few SS researches in between, 4 or 5 I believe. But anyway last week I did all my provinces, 63 if I remember correctly, at least up to round 5 and all the fights were pretty easy (with 6 life temporaries). No I get tough fights at province 16, 1st round more difficult then last week province 63 5th round.

LOL, more rewarding for what? Points? Because getting more such quality rewards as rune shards from 3* provinces (instead of KPs from 2*) does not feel particularly rewarding.

I think most people know well what caused these changes. But developers forget that 99% of players have only 1 bear(or 0) and do not make 60+ provinces on 6*. If the problem was only related to the size of the squad, it could be solved in other ways. But now everyone who went to 2* will lose the source of income KP. First, the guest races were devalued, now the tournament is on the way - what will remain of Elvenar?
I also want to note that those newcomers who wanted to tournament-did it, and who did not want to - and now will not show such a desire.

Tried it don’t like it. The consequences of losing a fight now can be horrific and stop you progressing in the tournament. Also the troops types are boring as a complete mix of anything comes up which makes it harder in fights and every event is the same now apart from the relic reward whereas before you themed enemies and could prepare your troops to do battle if you needed certain relics. No benefit for all the other fellowships in rewards apart from the Uber tournament players who already get a huge benefit from the extra benefits in getting to 10 reward chests. How about adding in a blueprint reward in chest 6? Why add mana (and seeds?) as a resource required it is already in short supply if you are trying to progress in a chapter that needs it so slows down people progressing. I already stop at the 50 diamond level in spire because mana and seed requirements are too heavy and rewards are not worth the resources deployed After that point as most of the rest of the fellowship are doing the same so we don’t get to 75 diamond reward levels now. I can see the only people doing tournament in future will be the out and out trader people As they won’t probably have taken all the troop and barracks etc upgrades so they will get cheaper options to trade the tournament because of the way you changed the factors.

Feeling dejected at the decadent trajectory : Event buildings, daily prizes, grand prizes, spire costs and tourney costs.
Sometimes I’m really confused at what the intention is.

For me:
good: 1 province - 1 encounter
But the difficulty is too exponential

your 9 additional chests are very utopian with these new variables

At the beginning this was a city building game and then they added more and more things - FA, events, spire, tournaments... now it seems they want us to go back to city building, forget tournaments, forget upgrading AWs, forget buying diamonds for premium expansions, forget spire, forget it all, back to how it was... just city building and waiting for months between Guest Races!

I just double checked. Chapter 16, province 16, round 1: A total of 124600 goods. So it is hard to believe that you only needed 18k in same chapter? I have skipped nearly all optional SSU but the first ones.

With no changes, it will be very difficult to get 10 chests even for the top FS, here and live

I guess this is why I started playing the game. Maybe this is what I'll go back to.
I don't think this is a good way to sell more diamonds Inno. #depressing.

6 provinces on 6 rounds are enough to get 10 chests. Hard to believe a top fellowship couldn't achieve that? The first 6 provinces are definitly easier than they have been before, especially on later rounds.

difficult, not very difficult
still, it doesn't feel right at all to be outnumbered so soon.
My image is from province 20, but I was outnumbered a lot earlier and THAT IS NOT RIGHT!

Of course 10 chests, but beyond it, it’s the personal venture. Almost every “interested” player goes more than 6 provinces 6 rounds, once they see the benefits.
And that’s taken away, big time. The 4-10k+ players will be maximally affected and they are ironing out those players with very strong hands.

Actually on all my smaller account i actually do much less tournament then on my main account. The fact that many units are not 3 star makes them so weak compared to 3 star enemies so it turn into a massacre very fast as well. So with increasing costs so fast, this just means i would do even less tournament before i think the cost is too high. The only tournaments i do more then the bare minimum is those where you can use a mage or light range booster, but with random enemies those tournaments don't even exist anymore aswell...

The example should be 8x5 as most people do not make it to round 6 due time scheduling contraints
and in province 8 is more difficult than live + a lot bigger SS.
Off course the dedicated tournament player will make 8x5 easy but there are a lot of in betweeners in this game

Hi all, I joined beta today because of the tournament changes. Obviously I only have one province to play with. This was my result:
My squad size was 2, enemy’s was just 1. Somehow I fail to understand how this tournament rebalance is supposed to make the entry easier for small/new players. If I were new and if I had such cruel first experience, it certainly wouldn’t help with getting me hooked to the game.
From my point of view this change hits us, mobile players, too hard. I’m not against one encounter per province. I’ve got problem with the terrain lottery which I have no way to influence or at least identify.
As for the difficulty: I’ve got no feedback there. Not enough data in such a small city.
