Costume Brawl is more like everyday PvP than Snowball is, and is more balanced. Plus, 8v8, organized CB would be fairly close to Sealed Deck play, I'd think. It only makes sense to me that Costume Brawl should have ATS support, moreso than it makes sense to do it for Snowball.

Assuming the bars are updated like they were last year, then /signed. Costume Brawl is easily my favorite of the event PvP, Sealed Deck FTW.

Sealed Deck Ats in general need to be implemented. After all it was one of the excuses used to get rid of the three month ladder seasons, easier automatic scripted feature could be put into Automated Tournaments, so far not one has shown its face. Increased AT play times are also needed with a smaller playerbase now. Here's to hoping on top of a skill balance update in August all these things get added.

I would love to talk about how they could change the bars for this year, but considering how many months away we are, some key skills may be adjusted by then.

/signed, costume brawl was definitely the best temporary arena they have introduced.

I would go for this, CB is the better ones of the mini-games and comes as close to sealed deck as we can get atm.

/signed

I have a feeling they were planning to do this anyway, so here's to CB ATS.

AT's for DA, CB and snowball would awesome.

More input wanted.

Also, we should probably get a thread made after the skill balance tomorrow to start brainstorming builds for the arena this year.

Replace everything with Costume Brawl. God damn most epic place in this game.

On a more serious note, I fully sign this and I'd like to see Costume Brawl avaliable more <.<;.

No one would play it. There are two major problems with Costume Brawl:

1) It's by far the most efficient way to push Gamer up.
2) The playstyle rewards syncing far more heavily than even Snowball and Dragon Arena. Vent, prepared build and organization on cap points is win.

The rewards for #1 are so great that skilled players will pass on ATs. I applaud any effort to create organized play and decrease the incentives to sync, but no amount of zkeys is going to compete with the title track points (unless the ATs are changed to give an appropriate points reward).

Either Costume Brawl needs to lose the points for consecs or other Gamer formats need to gain them for this to work.
