[sarcasm] Of course there will be more. There was a large out pour if resistance to them and they just kept coming. Now there has to be time for many to build back up that depleted ally point stash to be able to take 1st again. [/sarcasm]
I think the final straw for tournaments was the rampant cheating. I'm pretty sure that I saw somewhere that they wouldn't be back but that they would be replaced by a different type of event that would use ally points for refreshes.
the idea behind the tournament is great: you build up your B teams and strategically pick your fights with other teams to navigate to the top ranks
the execution was pretty bad tho, it becomes too much of a grind after the 30th battle. also, it tremendously favours players who happen to be free at around 1700 local time

yea, i would welcome the rework
Pick your fights!?! I wish! Having the same options to choose out of 5 choices is not really a choice.
Good riddance in my opinion. The brackets were broken if you weren't max level. Level 79s paired with level 71s for example, and level 79s have the added bonus of being able to level their abilities further due to the level restrictions on them for starters. The cheating certainly didn't help matters.
if you start climbing the ranks about 3 hours before end, you will see a lot of g8/g9 teams. then you can throw your b/c teams at them. Also, I run droids, empire, and rebel teams (all arena viable). so I have a decent response to different metas.
of course this only applies if you have a lot of free time shortly before the end of tournament, thus my earlier comment.
I think they will return. The new achievement still comes with ap as a prize along with Vader shards. I can't see devs just throwing this away just yet.

Its like you're saying that tournaments give free characters to the whales that were most willing to pay for them in the first place, the heresy.
I wonder at what conclusions would we arrive if we checked swgoh.gg.
Next you're going to tell us some players have inside information...
I actually liked tournaments. Always tried to start as late as possible (1-2hrs before end) and usually managed to end in top100. My highest achievement was 69th place ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) giggity
Nice how EA refunded the Barriss Zeta users and gave them crystals, yet all who lost out in the Jyn Erso Tournament (and others) get nothing but a kick in the you-know-where after facing broken Barriss teams.

Add "the reward structure was terrible" and it's perfect
I hope they come back in some firm I have close to 700k in all points ready for the next one
Lol nice try dude, because that's everybody right now. It's going to be terrible if they ever return because everyone will have 1M+ AP saved up and make it a bloodbath.

Yeah, it would be terrible. Hopefully tournaments are permanently done away with.
I hate tournaments they are the worse thing ever released into the game.
If they do come back they probably wont use ap to refresh as that would be crazy as most people are saving them up and can you imagine the outrage when 1 million ap is not good enough for a top 100 finish.
They would have to run several events before that have an ap element so people burn through them.
Tournaments were the worst addition to this game, period. I honestly hope we never see them again, but of course, we will... Not bothering to save my ally points tho, ppl will have tens of millions saved by the time another tournament launches. Basically means the refresh cost will be insane or, at the very least, once again the first few tournaments will be an absolute shtshw. I pull too many great items from bronzium to worry about what ifs.

You mean they are going through CV's to find a second person besides LD to look into complaints?
