About tournaments

1- Why are DBD tournaments either elitist or exclusive to pc players only? Seems revolved around streamers and people streamers know.

2- Why are ALL tournaments SWF?

3- Why cant the common player enter tournaments, whats the problem? Why is there no one representing the general player?

4- Who organizes tournaments mostly?

    1- they aren't. Plenty of tournaments have console teams or cross platform teams. The issues for console players typically stem from communication or latency/connection issues. It's not that console players are gated from participating. Teams are just less likely to take on a player at a higher risk of disconnecting and incurring a point penalty. As I always say, there are always tournaments happening. People just only hear about the larger ones

    2- It would be impossible to police and enforce a "solo" tournament, for one. The level of play would be lower on the survivor end, and I would imagine there would be fewer player sign ups.

    3- There's zero barrier of entry for competitive play. There's a huge range of skill between round 1 fodder and teams that consistently make the finals. I've seen players with as little as 500 hrs. You literally join a discord and find a team.

    4- Depends on the organization. There are many out there and they all have slightly different rules.

    We don't officially organise tournaments, so they're all privately run pretty much.

    We have a sub section on this forum where people advertise the tournaments that they themselves are running.
