I love this and I know that @Rhagga and @Drak are working on a format that is similar to this as well.

League imo is the best way to make use of the consistent format we have at the moment.

Hey Tony! First of all thanks for the thoughtful work you have put into this. As Ted mentioned we have already some ideas for different tournament formats coming soon!

But the idea of a team tournament is kind of a novelty and I would like to study it more in depth for the future for sure. Since Parallel is a solo game having team tournaments can bring some teamwork into the mix.

I have experience participating in international tournaments (Hearthstone), where we represented our country as a team. It was a very exciting experience for both players and spectators. Naturally, organizing team competitions is slightly more complex than organizing individual ones.

Hey @NTLZ! Thanks for sharing your idea and detailed format on how to host a league, it sounds exciting to make tournaments where you need to perform as a team. We will definitely give it a thought!
