I have been enjoying hosting my first few tournaments the last few months, and it is something I plan to do more of in the future. However, for my current one, I have the following brackets: 1300 max, 1300-1500, and 1500-1800. I feel like the first two are fine, although the lowest one will be very much in favour of the 1300's or close to 1300's, but:
1500-1800 is obviously problematic, simply too huge a skill gap, for my concept which is open maps only. Something I unfortunately didn't realise until too late, and decided to stick with it.
This time around I will keep the 1500-1800, but I was wondering if Aoezone has some suggestions as to how to divide brackets for future tournaments?
f.ex.: 1300-1500, 1500-1650 and 1650-1800?
I also get an impression that players in the 1800-2000 range for the most part don't find any tournaments that suit their needs. Would an 1800 stand a realistic chance to take a BO 3 vs a 2000, or should this range also be smaller, like 1800-1900 and 1900-2000, or whatnot.
I welcome any suggestions, as I would like to accommodate the mid/low/semi-pro ranges for future tournament ideas. And since there has been interest from the 1800+ who couldn't join my tourney this time, I want to keep that in mind, moving ahead.
