Community Tournament (Congratulations Alvendor on 1st Place!)

Tiebreakers almost never represent skill as they're quite arbitrary.

I never played or watched tennis in a dedicated way but I think tiebreakers go like whoever gets to hit twice in a row.
In soccer you get a penalty shootout which doesn't represent the teams' skill levels either.


So I don't see why Outwitters tourneys (which aren't even a sport) shouldn't be allowed to use arbitrary tiebreakers too. It should begin with the most obvious things I would say. The most obvious thing is the "base health" indicator on the game over screen.
I get your point - I don't know how many games I still won because I accepted it to go down to 2 or even 1 and get a strategical advantage from that. I think that's probably about 30% of all my high-level games.

Still you need to start somewhere, and I do think that any idea is better than a random number generator.
