I am afraid that there will be very limited interest to this "tournament" with such rules and restrictions.

I dont think so, HeroesWorld/Portal has much good players, who play 2sm(3)d, 8mm6. And i dont care about the rules, need only to know all of them.

well, these rules are common for russian players. My expectations are:
3-4 players from HeroesWorld, 3-4 from HeroesPortal, 3 from WCL. I hope that Protos will agree to play. Black_knight - do you wish to participate? As WCL player or as LT league representative?

Restarts:
- mandatory restart if hero level >1

Russian players are very skilled. They have played with several different leagues by rules of these leagues and won all these tournaments (remember, WCL lost 1:5 to Heroes.by). Now they invite players of other leagues to play by their rules. I think that it's a good chance not only to define winners and personal skills, but also to learn about how to play this game better,so I will definitely look into saves of these game with big interest. I've played myself several games by their rules and on their templates and found these games more interesting than Jebus Of course, I wish good luck to all WCL players in games vs Heroes.by team

Yeah, if they sent the invitation - they should say the rules - nothing wrong here. But it shouldn't be taken as if these rules are 'best' or even 'fair' - or at least, please try to explain why every rule is created and what is it's idea.
why should there be computer players, why 160% and not 130, etc...
why this template? what is wrong with say.. true random?

I got sick of these odes how good the russian players are. Maybe they are good, but for at least some of them there is an explanation why they are so "invincible".
I am not in the game from yesterday and i know pretty well what does mean when somebody try to prove he is the best. And for at least one case its exactly like that!!!

As far as I remember, the main rules were set by the Heroes.by players, not by WCL. Or do you think anyone of us would have choosen this strange town selection system? Or the strange fighting order (1 players plays as long as he loses a game, then the next player comes in).
So the only thing which came from WCL was Jebus template.
I wonder why those players deny to play "all random"...is there a reason?

modern rules of Heroes.by players came from originally Chaos-league rules. There was task to determine skill of players by setting most hard settings. So, 200% and XL+u and 6 comp players.
Regarding template: this is one of the best (maybe best) standard template for XL+under. Non-standard templates are not very popular in Russia, maybe because people didn't create them...Though new template Spider is pretty interesting.

...Why?
Quote:

This (proving that some player is the best) is not the objective of this tournament. Objectives are:
- to make TE version more popular
- to unity players from different leagues
- to share knowledge, experience
- to have fun
Quote: And for at least one case its exactly like that
what do you mean?
Quote: any games played allready?
none yet. Final details in discussion. I will definitely post here more information about pairs of players etc.
Quote: So the only thing which came from WCL was Jebus template.
80% rules were set by WCL players. All templates (Jebus, Balance, Panic) were unknown to Heroes.by players. They just studied them for few days.
Quote: Or do you think anyone of us would have choosen this strange town selection system?
I don't remember any big complains about it...Are you sure it was a problem?
Quote: Or the strange fighting order
that was most easy formula, else tournament could have continued for few months.
Quote: I wonder why those players deny to play "all random"...
I guess "All random" is used pretty often on TE version. Just it's not default, because selection (that is mentioned above) allows more choices. If someone would prefer "All random" - i can negotiate this.
