I'm really glad to see these adjustments. Making top cut at Nationals is a huge deal, worth more than 10 points in my opinion, no matter what the Worlds invitation threshold was.
Anybody else notice that Regionals 9-12 saw a reduction from last season? It's the only placement level that's seen a reduction.
Considering it has now been lumped in with 13-16, and that was 40 -> 45, it rounds out evenly. IMO, 9-12 and 13-16 should always be worth the same, regardless of swiss placement.
I don't think increasing Canada or Mexico's Nationals CP would help fix our issues nor would it be appropriate. Our Nationals are nowhere close to the size of the US National Championships. That said, our CP requirement should be lower considering the barriers we have to achieve that. I don't think reaching 500 CP is a viable path for most Canadians or Mexicans without Top 4ing Nationals.
Preach brotha, preach! When will tpci realize that canada and mexico have NO WHERE NEAR as many opportunities as america to earn points. It's hard just to play an irl game of pokemon here let alone make it all the way out to a tournament.
TPCi, Thats great that after a complete and total fallout you "realized you made some miscalculations" after trying to tell everyone that they are wrong, and recieving a resounding NO. I wanted to give pokemon a lot of money this season. But it you guys don't want it. I'm pretty sure every other card game is more popular in my city, yes even kajudo and vanguard have more players than the 4 players at my league (aka in my city of 300,000, seeing as how my city has one league) How on earth am I supposed to get 500 championship points without driving to toronto every week?
