I’m so glad to see that the majority want more 3* tournaments 
I agree completely, I like my 3* tournaments the most myself, and I think the 4* tournaments are a lot more fun too – thankfully though we get a more steady amount of 4* ones.
Just more 3* ones plz and thanks

But I have never been so angry with SGG as the revelation that 2* tourneys are 2x every 3 years.
That insults the people who pay gems to keep 2*+7 heroes and annoys people who skip 2* tourneys.

Congrats on your 5* hero roster and 4* troops.
Personally I am leveling multiple Gormek because I have nothing better to level in red.
Do not even get me started on my troop situation.
Merciless RNG is merciless.
I get it RnG sucks
But i still believe there is a better way to give “less fortunate”(idk what else to use, hopefully it’s not offensive, if it is well just another day at the office i guess) a way to compete with one with another for 1% loot without imposing 1/2* tourneys that punish more people than they help
I agree.
But if SGG is going to stick with 1*, or 2* tourneys, 3x every 2 years is looking a lot like greed or hypocrisy.
People make mistakes.
I am okay with SGG removing them.
I am okay with increasing the frequency.
But the hints they are dropping are leading further from “we want to do this” and closer to “we wanted to do this and another department shut us down”. l
Usually I try to avoid conspiracy theories, but SGG is making it so hard to defend them these days.
The 1 per 32 weeks is that for all 1 & 2* toruneys or per 1*/2* tourney + same restriction?
One each every 32 weeks
Hey @Gryphonknight and @Rigs
Do you really think 2* tournaments punish players ?
At worst you keep the 2* heros you started with and level up some more until you have 2 maxed 2* heros of every color.
If I look at the resources needed to do that, they are negligible and the 200 gems the extra roster space costs you isnt the world either.
Because I have started early I had only a maxed Laly left when the first 2* tourney hit, if you start today that should not happen. 
I have to agree that 1* tournaments would be very boring.
That’s not the same cost for every player
Hmm
Looks like we both got screwed gryph
You only get 3 tourneys you wanted
I still get the 3 i dont want
Dam that does suck
Tons of room for 3*/4* to shine in challenge events
Oops.
Thinking to fast for my typing.
Thanks for the catch.
I have edited it:
Alchemy Lab was the most voted for idea.
So that made a difference.
Sort of? Lol
Lol after i asked that, i was wondering if someone would bring that up
Bad Example.
Why not run concurrent tournaments?
1-3 stars for players lvl 20 and under (or any level deemed appropriate)
3-5 stars for players greater than the designated level.
We have Find Recruits 1 and 2.
We have level restrictions on events and buildings.
Why not a split tourney?
Reduce the loot for the junior tourney but that’s offset by the junior players having a shot at top 10percent or better each tourney.
If the purpose of the tourney is to give players more content, this works
If the purpose is to generate more revenue for SG - this also works by having low level players more likely to spend 75 gems if a chance at those elusive gloves or compass is a legit option
This is exactly my frustration at the current implementation.
I in all honesty just want more 3 star and 4 star tourneys. As those are my favs. 5 stars I never look forward to because I normally just get obliterated. Only one I even look forward to is the one running right now in the five stars. 2 star tourneys, that is very iffy for me. 1 star ones, not gonna do because I need mah food for all the heroes I still need to level up from the past couple months.
Honestly, i think it is quite good as it is.
Raid tournament are still a concrete chance of good loot/emblems, so of course i expect 5* tournaments to be the most recurring to pop up.
Both because there are more 5* then any other kind of heroes, and because of course those who paid for them must use them and feel it was worth it.
After that i expect 3* and 4* tournament about at the same quantity, a little less of legendary. They provide the most equal and competitive challenge avalaible for most of the people.
They probably are the most loved.
2* and 1* are both an opportunity as a luxury.
Older players and spenders can invest in those mini-heroes just to have the chance to compete, those that are really F2P can try to “invest” in them mainly for mapping and secondary for these challenges.
As such, i expect them to be a rare occurence, or at least less of all the others.
^^ Should be: 3x every ~two years.
A very good friend of mine said 1*+19 tourneys are awesome.
I all my alliance is level 50+
I want to play.
But multiple tourneys per week would be cool.
Or just remove 1* / 2* tourneys,
Like old “Beginner” Challenge event, Top 1% in a 1* tourney will not be new players.
