Say what you want but with the expansion pack with knights and cities, Settlers is an incredibly deep game for how little bookkeeping it needs in the paper form | ||

I just don't see it getting an audience  Also from the article "MrGameTheory currently plays for Team Liquid's Clash Royale team" Wait what? When did this happen | ||

Can we somewhat play the turns simultaneously because otherwise it'll truly be a bore to watch. i dont know about civ VI but simultanous turns were "the standard" way to play Civ IV and it still took weeks to finish a single game | ||

And for those of you who complain that it's too long: Come on, a BO5 of Lol can take up to 4+ hours. A competitive match of Civ with the new "online" speed will last much shorter than this. | ||

But can anyone who actually knows how CIV esports work, tell me what setups are played? Team games? Mapsize? Mapconfig? From stone age to modern age? What are the key elements of a "standard" match? | ||

..and yeah, unless something has changed dramatically with how the game is played, a match could go on for many days, no? Which isn't necessarily a problem. We just have to learn to follow a game over days, much like cricket fans I suppose? | ||

(In AoE2 final matches playing Bo11 regularly) but still you are missing a point. These are completely independent matches. Every round matters, every round plays differently, every round has its own story. | ||
